Cutting is like an addiction like drugs are addiction. You can never stop when you want. I've been cutting/carving for 3 yrs. It feels so good but I can't go on like this. I want to wear short sleeves. Ugh..Also I could go to a mental ward. I'm not going to tell my therapist because she will kill me..What should I do?

omg.... what the heck..it feels good? what the lol why does it feel good?????? omg-_-;;; i dont want to be rude or mean, but i think you need to go to that place where you cannot cut yourself no more... and there is this treatment where you learn not to do those cutting stuff again... you should go see it... i think it takes about a month to finish the program. few of my friends are just like you and they really wanted to stop cause they were so addicted to it, so their family send them to this program... i have no clue what the name really is but it really worked it well cause my friends dont cut their arms no more whew for that-_-;;

my best friend had the same problem once she cut her arm 121 times. it's really scary and dangerous. I think it's a good idea to tell your therapest b/c if you want to break that addiction, you're going to need to get help. I hope you quit!

I think cutting is really bad. My friend Dana cuts and has been for 3 years and I honestly want her to stop because your blood is suppose to stay inside you and why cut, does it make you feel better about yourself or what? I just think that people who cut should stop because it's really bad and I think that they should tell someone about it who can maybe help them stop.

I don't cut.
But I know that when I get a papercut, it hurts like hell. You have too much stress. I think you should talk it out... cutting is not the answer. |

stop cutting, find a new thing to relieve stress and pain . For an example - boxing , working out, yoga, punching a pillow...etc...
And if ur worried about ur scars showing up ... one u stop cutting and ur arms are all healed up, use cocoa butter to try to lessen the appearance of ur scars... YOU CAN STOP, IT JUST TAKES WILL POWER. |

I think we need to find a place for ignorant idiots such as yourself. *cough* anyway i know the feeling, it is hard to stop. and it actually does feel good at times. I don't really know what else to say, though a therapist really helps. |

I know what that feels like. It`s so hard to. You might as well tell your therapist though. Just keep trying to stop. or reduce how many times you do it or something like that.

i understand how u feel. sometimes cutting can remind u of how not to act and stuff, but still it doesnt mean its a good thing. there are other ways to relieve yourself of stress and if you know you cant quit then its best if you do tell ur therapist regardless of what she thinks so u can get rid of this habit.

Well i dont cut but i have some firends that do. Not tryin' to be meen or nething but cutting is not the greatest thing to do to put it in nice ways....but if you REALLY tried to stop but cant...them i can suggest that you wear wristbands....then you can hide ur scares and wear short sleeves....but i'm still telling you that itz really bad....

i know it's hard to stop... i'm still working out my problems with it... at one point in time i would use a ruler or protracter so it wouldn't actually bleed... now i'm back where i started but i am getting help from a friend. just keep faith and don't stop trying to quit...
