Personally, I would like to see you argue that point. No offense, but many of your posts degrading something don't have much to back it up.

Some people just need to cut because they can't deal with the emotional stress and pain. I'm not a cutter and I don't exactly know what their pain feels like, but they find a physical and emotional relief from all the stress and depression. Cutting is a symptom of depression (no sh*t, of course ). It may be wrong in your eyes, but to others, they feel the need to cut... They can't deal with some emotions... I agree with melface.. they do need help. But it's great that they are admitting that they want help, that they want to be able to overcome this problem. It's a sign that they want to get better.

So please, x3_kelly, don't say it's "wrong and pathetic" because anyone can cut themselves. We're not all perfect, so don't act like you're better than them because you don't cut.

Even if some seek for attention, they still need help. They must feel unloved or something has emotionally damaged them.

she made a pointless thread.. she cuts and she's proud of it. what's pissing me off is that she sounds like she craves attention. << THAT'S wrong and pathetic.

I'm not trying to sound like I'm, quote unquote, "better than them just because I don't cut"



I understand that people cut because it's a cry for help. I FIND CUTTING WRONG. it can often, unintentionally, lead to stitches, hospitilization and infections. some people that cut have no intentions of permanently hurting themselves and suicide is less likely since cutting some how relieves their pain.
