cutting? Options

[L00d]

it has to be one of the stupidest things imaginable that you can do to yourself. call me ignorant or whatever you want that's just my opinion on it. none of my friends do it and if they did i'd have to kick their ass...

[flyin_HAWAiiAN]

i dont cut but i know people who do. most of the time its because they think they dont have anyone to turn to so the last thing you should do is make fun of them. i finally got my friend to stop hurting herself by being there for her.

[RiddleMeWonders]

I cut between my lower arm and my elbow.
I can't control my life. I can't control my weight, my grades, or my friends.
I don't smoke a pack a day, I'm not an alcoholic.
I'm a nice person, and I am generally happy to the public eye.

What do you think......

[x0 sweetsorrow]

hmm. thanx for advertising it. not many people do that....

....but pimpin231 dont go sayn its stupid. cos that really doesnt help.

I cut myself once.. and I'm willing to try again.. not really.

Just that.. life isn't going so well.

[*jooleeah*]

ANQEL_R0H DID THAT BEFORE!! SHE WAS TRYING TO CUT HERSELF WITH THE KITCHEN KNIFE WHEN SHE WAS IN 6TH GRADE

what was that all about...

umm...i have never cut myself. i would never do it....i dunno. that's not my way of expressing my feelings.

[vivieeeen]

i used to cut. hehe what a common line... but it's true. i never told anyone about it. since i don't swim or wear shorts or do watever that shows the scars
then, my really close girlfriend started cutting her arms.
and somehow, i just got so upset and worried and hurt that i stopped myself all together. then persuaded her to stop and she did~

*beams* it's what other people show they care, that depressed people can get better

[rabidchicken]

If you're depressed and cutting yourself, what's the point? Because:
1.) You're STILL depressed
2.) You're left with horrible scars
3.) You're in pain AND depressed.

So you see, nothing good comes out of it.

I used to, and I had no idea how much I was hurting my new friends. I was going through this period of great depression where I was being tormented by everyone. I was trying to kill myself, and it was sort of killing the people who loved me. Recently, my classmates and friends have been cutting themselves and I lay awake at night crying my eyes out with worry. Please, don't cut yourself. I bet of you.

[rabidchicken]

I think there's no point

I used to cut myself because everyone was tormenting me, my family was going through a bunch of crap and I just wanted to die. I had no idea how much I was hurting my (real) friends. Now I know, because recently, my classmates and friends have been cutting themselves and I've been lying awake at night crying my ass off with worry. I beg of you, please do not cut yourself. You have your whole life ahead of you, and cutting yourself is no way to cope.

[darkcoldplace]

i think they should seek help or stop, ive seen it before it just gets worse from the starting point.

[angel-roh]

heh... i tried to cut myself too cus i was so mad.. i was so depressed too... heh i was kinda cutting myself with a kitchen knife... and then good thing my door was unlocked...my home gurls stopped me and i had to go to the hospital because it was bleeding a lot.

[call_her_misery]

yes i am a cutter, and i've been trying to stop.
i've been cutting for awhile, and unlike what everyone thinks..
some cutters dont cut themselves because they want to kill themselves
its the way they cope with stress/pain etc.
not a way they express themselves.
its a disease, and some do it for attention, and out of pressure

i cut, and yes, sometimes i think its stupid and i regret it..
but thats how i deal with my pain
and so far, the only thing i can control in my life is my pain.
i'm left with scars, but it reminds me what i've put myself through

there were many times that my parents and the school wanted to send me to the hospital
or get some help...
but not yet, because i dont think anyone will understand if they start accusing you of things
and looking at you in a different way
so for all you people who think its stupid
believe me, it is, but try to understand

[dani41790]

well umm i cut maiself once. i guess it waz cuz i waz soooo depressed at that point.

[*CJ1*]

I think the best way to get rid of cutting is to just be friends with the person before it starts. Most people do that because they don't have a friend to talk to about their situation.

[177emories]

awww whats losers hurtting themself MORE form getting hurt... lalalala i would enever cut myself... but to help? you really can't, they do it for their own reason and if they want to tehir not gonna listen especially when they are at a depressed mood

[hybrid]

Hmm, I suppose. When your depressed there's nothing much you really can do about it. To many of us, it might seem as if its idiotic to cut yourself to release pain inside but to many it might be the only way to heal themselves inside.. may not look pretty on the outside but I bet it feels good inside.

[immersion31]

well, i never cut myself befor. i always try to look at the righter side so i dont get too depressed

[darkangel]

they do it because they want to let the bad stuff out. they say it makes them feel better about themselves. thats kinda strange O.o

[hybrid]

well, i never cut myself befor. i always try to look at the righter side so i dont get too depressed

That's great! Never cut yourself. Its not right. Instead of cutting youself, visit createblog instead! We will get you out of depression in no time!

[pbear]

Hm...one of my friends has started to cut.
It's rather horrifying to see her arms.
Therapy doesn't work for her.
So she just keeps doing it.

I feel so helpless.

As a friend, I would keep her active in her social life. That way she won't have to cut herself. Try to convince her. Tell her that there's so many things to relieve stress and stuff.

I did just that.

She only started to cut more, convinced I was trying to force her to be an active member in society.
And she desperately hates conformity.

Or something like that...

[triipinfserious]

i`ve never cut before but my friend mike has ... it`s kinna scary )=

[JessJR1022]

One of my really close friends used to cut herself. It's a way that she found to get rid of the pain that she had in her life. She was really depressive. IN then end, someone called the cops on her and she had a lot to go through with that and was told if it happened again there would be worse consequences. So she went to a dr and stopped....she got help.....most people just need someone there for them
