I would be LIVID if someone said that to me, me and many many other self injurers have huge respect for life. People have no idea how insensitive or ignorant they can be about this, they always handle it the wrong way, you know like those friends who will almost scream it over and over again in public and threaten to tell everyone. :( my dear you explain everything so well and so perfectly, you're right in every way and I hope more people will listen to you
@mynameisangela14 Yes... well I recorded this video 4 years ago, and have since gotten a better webcam. But at the time it was all I had and all I could afford :) I am sure everyone could still hear though for the most part.
i understand what you mean by the your not doing it to killyour self. its the pain of it that just kind of give you a rush and calms you as soon as you see blood it makes you feel like you have won like what ever bad thing that made you do it has just gone . but i regret it after i do it , been doing it for 2 and a half yrs but really want to just stop ...
For me, a line from Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls fits perfectly:
"You bleed just to know you're alive."
I only found it yesterday and it pretty much describes my self injury for me. Other times, yeah, I am just depressed and something bad's happened, but still. I agree with you totally.
And @Firefox7777777 - that's exactly the kind of comment that makes injurers feel even more hopeless and pathetic. Thanks.
i personally think that people who mutilate themselfes are mentally weak, and yeah, i''ve been in fucked up situations too, i slipped into a psychosis, heard voices in myn head, saw stuff that wasnt even there, thought about sickening stuff, wanted to commit suicide, but i stopped, blocked my emotions to prevent things like suicide, built my plan to overcome the trouble, faced it, ran right into it, and won, still psychotic, but happy, thats what its all about.
anybody who mutilates him/hersef is absolutely mental, why the fudge would you cut/burn your body ? once you were born as a beautiful baby, a beautiful child, you received a miracle of nature, a fully functioning beautifull body ! are the mutilation people doing it to ''bleed out the pain'' ? arent you strong enough to fix your goddamn problems while using your god given mind ? is it to get a taste of dieing by almost committing suicide ? i say again, use your brain to handle yur emotions.
i cut and when ppl say "bleed out the pain" thts realii how it is when i'm depressed i try to make myself feel better but most the time the only thing tht can help is a blade...don't tlk shit about every person who cuts especially if you don't kno what they've been threw...
@Paigeheartsu You seriously need to find a way to handle you struggles diffrently, Doesnt matter what it is, as long as it doesnt seriously damage your health. If you have the feeling that your problems are pushing you around, and you get way to tired to push back, try to pull, that way you immobilize your problems more efficiently.. Stop punishing yourself due to what your thinking feeling and/or what happened in the past, Accept your feelings and thoughts, but dont agree with them. Good luck
I just heard you say that how do you fight against your friends and how can you convince your own friends or youtube or anyone in the world. I commend you for this video and I might have a job oppertunity for you. If you want to make a difference contact me. I'm creating the biggest web site to help make a change and make others take notice and learn how to treat people like us.
I am watching your video and I am very interested in possibly speaking with you. I also use to self injury for over 18 years of my life. I have finally been able to stop and now I'm creating a company to help, support and educate all people and medical professionals about this problem. If you would like to talk you can find me on aol at LittleLemon78. Or you may call me at 727-729-0413.
You are a great person to be so open to this. Once people see my scars they looks at me and make an ugly face. In your other video you said that your friend called the police in which you had been talking to him about your situation. I went through something similar but this guy didn't know shit about me yet he ratted me out and I had to be admitted to the psyche ward. I was so angry with him because he didn't give a shit about me. I hate people who have nothing to with your life judge you.
@user00975318642 you were actually admitted to a psyche ward because of that guy? im very sorry :(
i have a few scars on my arm but i always try to hide them. i never know what to do when im wearing short sleeves....but for me now its a kind of reflex to hold my hand there so it cant be seen. but im ok now because i dont do it anymore, even though it can be really hard when im upset. are you feeling any better?
@luv4alwayz Yeah, he wasn't really my friend, it was high school. Never asked me "Are you okay?" Nothing. And I was threatened to seek treatment. A teacher said "if you don't go now there will be two big men who will take you away in an ambulance in a strait jacket." It's very hard to hide them I used to wear a lot of bracelets or arm warmers to cover it. I didn't want attention I just wanted a release. And I know how you feel when you get the urge, I haven't done it in two years but it helps...
@luv4alwayz And I've been under a lot of stress, now I drink a lot. So I guess not. I have to ask has anyone ever said anything to you about your cuts?
@user00975318642 well i can honestly say youve got it alot harder than me as far as having people know you cut before. its nice talking to people who have been through something like this. im in highschool still and i always feel like im the only one, even though im probably not. and yes, people have talked to me about it before..only when i make a mistake in letting my arm be seen, which isnt often..they ask me about it and i always feel completely suffocated! i never know how to answer....
ive been self-injuring for about 3 and a half years.......and no one ever found out until this year when people keep asking me everyday and ive lied a couple times but once people noticed that theres more and more cuts and burns eachtime. Well the only was I know how to act when people ask me is with humor and then they get mad at me cuz there being serious but I can't help but think its funny, and trust me I know it's not. I just dont know how to deal with the questions.
my friend just started cutting herself i don't know what to do and she might actually commit suicide cause she told me she considered it once and i have absolutely no idea what to do she seems perfectly normal all the time, and she even admitted that she cut herself and she seemed so calm about it maybe she just wanted to try it ? I dunno how to help her
i aint a preacher but i have done it im only 14 but i did it from 11 and then when i stopped i dealt with it by force for a week but i couldent keep going but even now its sooo hard because 24/7 i think about it but a whole year clean! =D
You are so inspiring! I remeber i took a picture and it had the cuts on my arm in it...imediatly i got an email from my friend saying "oh my gosh what did you do to yourself and what happened." Right after I told her she turned her back on me and told everyone including my boyfriend. I just would like to say thank you though because without you i wouldnt know where to go and that you have helped me through my M.D.D! So in a way you saved my life and your just plain out great :)
My cutting scars got to noticeable so now I take pins and stab my hand and let my cat scratch me so I can tell my parents well I was playin with the cat been succesfull for about 2yrs now
that is really brave. Self injury scars are embarrassing when other people see them , makes you feel like you wanna crawl into a hole and hide.
A bit of advice for people who are still self harming, well my psychiatrist told me if i ever feel the urge to cut , hold some ice cubes in your hand and clench your hand . Just abit of advice not a cure!
preaching is the worse thing my friends preached to me my mom preached to me it made it soooooo much worse please dont preach do whatever u can but DO NOT PREACH u may think your helping but you are really not
I love you- not in a creepy way or anything it's just that you are so passionate about this and you have a right to be because you are correct that self harm doesn't go hand in hand with suicide!
And I'm a very strong catholic but I cut. I go church every single week. It doesnt make me a bad person; just lost.
My best friend would harm herself for years and only really got suicidal about it after her mom died. It was really difficult to learn to accept it when I myself have anxiety which had prevented me from ever doing it to myself, yet made me feel paranoid as hell about losing her at the same time, but luckily I understood the damage done to her when others called her out on it and how it made her more likely to do it. I just learned to shut up about it and try not to drive myself insane over it.
you're probably the most insanely honest and best person that i've come across who knows the consequences of cutting. ive got cuts on my arm and i honestly had no idea how i would be able to stop others from noticing it. honestly, it wasn't for my sake that i was trying to hide them, it was because i didn't want to see the pain in my family's faces from seeing what i had done to myself. i've stopped now and im still trying to find a way to get rid of them, because they're honestly not that bad.
@FreddyKreugeuhRxp Not if you are telling people how much self injury messes up your entire life. Some people glamorize it, sure. But I don't, and I don't think it's right to do that. People have an opinion on self harm weather or not I talk about it, but the important part is people being informed and not being idiots about it. Btw, I will email you back,.
@xsullengirlx I talked to some friends about this and they didn't cared. they saw it as a part of me. this isn't a opninion and I wasn't attacking you, I was wondering what if your plan backfired?
LISTEN TO HER. SHE KNOWS WHAT SHES TALKING ABOUT. SHE STOOD UP FOR SOMEONE IN THE BIGGEST WAY POSSIBLE IN THAT SITUATION AND YOU EVERYONE BETTER GIVE HER THE RESPECT SHE DESERVES FOR THAT. I RESPECT U I RESPECT WAT U HAVE SAID AND EVEN THO U CUDNT CONVINCE UR FRENDS ILL LET U KNOW U ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE. KEEP MAKING ONE. DONT LISTEN TO ANY NEGATIVITY. ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO RISK EVERYTHING LIKE U DO WITH THESE VIDEOS THAT CHANGE THE WORLD. DONT STOP THE WORLD NEEDS U. NEVER GIVE UP. *BOWS*
I understand fully to be confronted and judged and people saying that you need help or need to go to the consoler or whatever or be called out and asked why your're sitting alone or wearing a jacket. Trust me it doesn't make it better for someone to be singled out and talked down to.
Okay thank you guys so much. I think I'll ask her to draw it from the back of my hand. And trust me, I've been trying to stop. I'm making pretty slow progress, but I'm getting there. :) Thank you guys again. I really appreciate the help.
Try and wear like coverup over it. A lot. Then put a bunch of bracelets on. That's what I did. Or ask If you can get it drawn from the back of your hand. But you should really stop cutting, I did and now I don't have to hide anymore.
Um I don't know if anyone can help me but I have a question. :/ I am a major cutter and I HAVE to go get my blood drawn next week and my mom is taking me. I'm scared and really don't want her to find out and I'm afraid that they will put me in the hospital or something....how do I avoid? Is it unavoidable? Do I have to tell my mom? If I have to tell my mom...how?
@IAmNarwall put a lot of coverup ontop of your cuts, then put on tight-ish cuffs/bracelets ontop if there down lower on you arm, then i dont think you would have to take the bracelets off really, sorry if it isnt much help but its better than nothing i guess :x
Wow. This was a really good video. Let me tell you, that if you came across to me, then I'm sure you came across to others watching this too. People are very ignorant and stupid these days. They don't know what it's like to be in the self injurer's shoes. You seem like a really nice and thoughtful friend. It's good to see that there is still some good in this world :)
I did come out to my friends, then they started calling me crazy. so now they believe I don't self injure at all. i'm not as bad as i used to be (everyday up to 2x a day) anyways, they're in the dark, i'm not in the light... and i don't think i should come out again.
lemme just say this YOU GO GIRL!!!! it takes courage to try and defend you and the boy there. if i was him i would be really thankful for you standing up for him. it was a really great thing for you to do. ignore those stupid people, they just dont understand.
Hey hun, I could`nt tell anyone when i was young, cause i felt ashamed of my self, I did not feel i was worth shit, I was afraid of judgement and being cast out of my comunity, who were very old school, and when i did get sent to child support workers they could not get anything out of me, yet they kept saying we understand whats going on, like fcuk they did, i was told to box away my problems until i could deal with them, verybad idea, things throughout my life went so wrong, ended up in rehab,
thank you for sharing that. I'm going through a hard time in relation to this too and i want to say i agree with you, no likes it when other people try to tell them what to do. i hate it. i think you did good by defending your friend. thank you so much, you've helped. :D
Its a real defenseless situation and when people ask u why what's the point you feel like shit or a baby cause you can't say anything they don't get it unless they do it!
I hav to agree wit @rbrock95 i hate it wen ppl do tht and i jst want to let u kno tht i always watch u and i think ur amaZing at wat u do and keep doing it cuz i self injure and wen ppl find it i jst start to cut even more so plz keep doing wat ur doing ur so awsum and also i jst wana say thx bcuz u rly gave me a new perspective
Anyone injuring himself invites demons inside himself. Injuring oneself has consequeses as the act itself derives from hurting inside. Not being on the right path in life, by not accepting Jesus, leaves your soul empty in life, and demons will comewhen you take extreme measures, as injuring and drugs. This coping mechanisms is excellent for Satan to drive you into a binding, obsessive behaviour. Your mind think the way Satan wants, your soul remains his, you remain in darkness.
Thank you for this. My friends recently ignored me for self harm and I didn't know who to talk to but you helped me realise what I need to do. You given me so much courage and hope. I hate it when they call me out in the middle of school. Its hard to cope with but I realise now that I always have someone to talk to. Thank you so much for this.
I self-harm. Im trying to stop, i do it less then before and im getting better. I use to think nothing of it until one time when i made a mistake and cut a vein. Luckly it wasnt a majer one but i still couldve died. If u cut, plz dont wait to make a mistake like mine cause it could b to late. Im not saying u have to c a theripist or anythin cause ive been and it sucks. Just try to take a walk or somthin instead. And if u really feel the need to cut then instead of usein sharp stuff use ur nails
I second you on all of what you've said... except the "phase" statement... I hate it when people say "oh they're going through a phase right now." As if how someone copes with things is a "phase" anyway, I've got to say that sometimes those things aren't enough, what about those people who don't believe in church/God, what about those who are depressed because of church? And what a great way for those two guys, or any one really, to make you feel bad for feeling bad and doing something about it.
You are such a good person and the fact that you would stand up for another like that really shows it. I'm sorry that had to happen to the two of you, people can be so ignorant, it's a shame.
sorry but tbh u cant stop him i self harm n tbh no matter wt u say it wont stop him it becomes instinct to punish urself wen ur down all u can do is be there for him but even then he'll still cut
@666satinsbitch Did you even watch this? I self injure too. I wasn't trying to stop him, OTHER people were! I was just defending him from being bullied because of his self injury. I obviously understand why he self harms and wouldn't expect or tell him to just stop. Thats not what this video was about at all? Everyone deserves support regardless.
I hate how some people make it something cool. I have several friends who do it, and they're proud. If anyone finds out you cut, they pull up their sleeves and act like you're in this club or something. It's NOT ok. We do it, but it's not something glamorous or cool.
@PeaceLoveAndVicodin Agreed, I hate when people make it seem cool or trendy or try to glamorize it. It makes me sick and it also gives the impression that everyone who does it just does it to look cool or look for attention, which isn't the case with most who are really suffering from it.
Me and my friend have other friends who are really stupid, and say 'OMG, you're so stupid, you'll end up killing yourself, stop now!' It just makes us want to do it more
i understand. i self-injure (just cut though, i dont burn or anything) and i just told two of my friends today. they said they wont judge me an still love me. they just warened me about one of my friends cousins friends who broke up woth her bf b/c she thought hebwas cheating. he wasent, gobdepressed and cut her name, (it was long, makenzie) into his arm. he fainted and had to go to the hospital, im not sure what haopend but yea, they just told me not to do something to drastic b/c they didnt w
If anyone wants to talk about cutting or thoughts of suicide, you can message me. Theres something comforting in sharing a similar problem with someone you dont know and who wont judge you, because telling your feelings to someone close can make...the relationship different sometimes especially with a subject like this, but if you've had a shitty day and you feel like...doing something like this and you need someone to talk to you can send a message anytime
Your so right, people are ignorant, they think they mean well but they just make it worse, it's so frustrating coz they don't know how It hurts, it's something you need to experience to understand, but your right for comforting and standing up for the guy, and yourself, I hate it when my friends bring up that I self harm it makes me feel even more depressed your a good person, and they are hard to come by nowadays just keep comforting him and stay strong :') xx
I've never been through self inflicted injury myself, but I've felt a similar way due to depression. I think it's about wanting to feel alive and experience something other than the numbness/disconnect of your everyday life or punishing yourself for some perceived failure. It has nothing to do with suicidal thoughts although you can experience both.
We do these things because it is a coping mechanism. Seeking professional help doesn't always work. In fact, for someone like me, it only makes it worse. People who don't understand are always the ones who make it worse.
burnings better than cutting lasts longers, pains more real, more of a release plus unless your obvious about it you can just say you ate shit wiping out on a bike or sum shit
i hate when people call me out on my cutting it happens everyday at my school this guy cums up to me evryday and makes it worse thats y im always cutting at home at school at friends houses and party if im upset ill cut no matter where i am and when people c my wrists and legs they just make it worse sayin shit like y do u do that go to church or just whisper about it when ever i walk by and probly more when im gone like her thats the chick that cuts y r people such DUMBASSES
Pretty great video, i am not a self-injurer but i know many friends that do self-injure themselves, and i also have done a video on this topic on youtube.
Thankyou for this video, i really apppreciate your response here.
thank you so much! You are helping me cope with alot. ya i might be only 12 nd u prbly dnt want to talk to a 12 yr old.... I mean who would? But hear me out. u hav helped me with so much MORE THAN MY DAMN THERAPIST CAN. I DONT WANT TO TALK TO HER. ive been cuttin for 5 months now... and ive just been doing extreme things. I switched schools nd got away from the bullying issue and my parents r lyk "y dont u just stop.y do u cut?" bla bla so if i could just talk to u in message thtd b great.
thanks for making and posting this. I agree with what you say. People are so ignorant and don't understand. I hate it when people pretend to know what you're going through and try to tell you what to do. It's touching when someone cares and wants to help,but not when they pretend to know what you're feeling inside and judging you,it makes it worse. Thanks for sticking up for that guy,I'm sure it helped him alot. Keep it up,don't be discouraged,you ARE making a difference. xoxo
i admit it and if people dont like it they dont say anything im sorta a violent short tempered person.... but it still hurts me the look they get.... or what i hear them say behind my back...
ii get judge b/c (im emo) ii cut...they think&say tht ii do it all for attention. thts jus fuckin bullshyt. they dont kno what ive been(im) goin thru. they def. think tht they kno everything, but they dont, they think they understand, but they dont. ii jus hate tht shyt. ppl could b so fuckin ignorant. if they looked in a diff. perspective, then they wud understand. other than tht, they need ta keep their mouth shut.
@tunaheadfry Hey. ill tell you something... you talk about normal here... theres no such think as a normal person. everyones a bit wierd and noones perfect. us people who self harm dont expect you to understand anything just live and let live. dont be so closed minded.
In my own opinion even if you cut deep or barely cut. You are a cutter. Im 15 and i...cut i only tell my friend dominique cuz shes the only one i can trust. She is the one that helps and understands me. As of some of my friends have cutted they have quit. I like your story of your concern with this guy you met @ a party who had problems. Im just trying to stop,....ive had problems such as my dad who doesnt really give a damn about me and who emotionally abuses me (parents divorced) and when my
@1stStateDrumNBass same as saying stop pooping, you're wasting too much water! For real cutters and not posies, when it happens it's at a point of black out. If they don't do it, they might do something much dangerous and harmful
Well, what IS your point?? What is your bottom line?? What DO you want people to know about self injury?? That its normal?? Just b/c there are a lot of people who do it, doesn't make it normal. Are you trying to say that its normal? That its okay? What ARE you trying to say?? Is substance abuse an acceptable form of coping w/ stress and depression?? What SHOULD someone say to a self mutilator ?? WHAT do you want people to understand about self mutilation??
@tunaheadfry what she is saying that it's a problem, and cutters have no control over it. When a sudden burst of negative emotions surface up at the same time, it's really hard to contain yourself. Cut, usually, releases that energy by jolting you back to inflicted pain. Just another medical condition, like addiction, some have it, some develop it. In the end, she wants people to understand and mind their own business. If you really want to know, ask in privacy.
I am a church going girl i believe in god and i still self injury that has nothing to do with it ... And it doesnt mean the devil makes me do it... It all depends on the feelings of the person and whats going on in their lives... And its their choice to self injure so BACK OFF let them do what they want
How all my friends knew is one of my friends saw some scars and forced my sleeve up and then he went about showing and telling everyone else in the class. Now I am now known as the "emo". Sigh, I hate that name so much. Now all the topics we talk about 80% of the time is why do I cut myself or they joke about it. It gets annoying after awhile...
I told my best friend of 20ish years, and as i expected he was cool and understanding....All he told me was that he was there for me, and he would stay my best friend.....and nothing would change that...........
OK ppl. I don't self injure, other than smoking too many cigarettes, which is obviously not a good idea, and also quite addictive. What the majority don't understand (have you even tried), is that it is a coping skill. It sucks that it's permanent, and so hard to get treatment for, but did you ever think that there is an alternative that is worse? She's not dead! Until someone is able to stop the best help you can give is acceptance. Not approval of the act. Approval of the person not judgement.
I tell people mine are cat scratches.. when people question me further and say a cat couldn't have done all that I just try and change the subject.. i want to talk about it so badly but I can't.....
I know pecicely were ur coming from and hate when ppl call me out. Some ppl need to understand that it is like an addiction most times and I meean I have relapsed a couple times but have had good dependable friends to talk to. I don't like talking to the friends that have humilliated me in public anymore
well you convinced me... gave me a completely different outlook on selfharm. i always beleived that suicide and self harm are the same. thanks for this <3
and ya really!!! just because people self injure doesn't mean we are trying to kill ourselves..think about it...if we wanted to kill ourselves...we could do it...there are fast and easy ways to do it....sooo stfu about us wanting to die dumb asses..and ya we do know a lot about what we do.....i'm a cutter..and i'm going to be a psychologists because of this reason
yeah that is ridiculous..i'm a cutter for sure and i do go to church....what the hell is church going to do for a self-injurer? not shit. it has nothing to do with god or any of that stuff.
@misslooplap and what am i wrong about though...? i mean i think i would know if i wanted to die or not...and i don't want to and i know a lot of cutters who don't want to die...so if your saying i'm wrong about that then whatever that is your opinion but your definitley way more wrong..but if that isn't what you were talking about then explain please?
@mustardboytellem well that's not it lol. I was saying that God has e erything to do with cutting. The devil is the one making you want to cut and God is the opposite of the devil. God created ur body and wants to help you stop. Religion is wrong and you won't get anything for that but if ur a christian (not a religion) you are free. U can sin and you won't get punished or zapped by god but you repent and feel better. Please just try God. Ask him to be the lord of ur life in jesus' name
@misslooplap oh well that makes more sense then. but i do go to church..and i still cut myself. i mean i ask for forgiveness you know. i mean i belive in God and i ask him for help and i go to church but i still cut...i don't want to die and God knows that but its like church doesn't help, therapy doesn't help, my friends and family can't help...i feel like it doesn't make me a bad person...i'm nothing like the devil..i am the sweetest girl you'll ever meet and i don't feel like cutting makes me
@mustardboytellem haha iit does but I just to clear it up, I didn't say if you cut ur the devil. I said the devil makes you cut. Btw I'm the same as you. Nice church going girl who self harms (not anymore. Going on a month!)anywhoo friends are like the worst people to go to. Talking to God helped me. Also writing in my diary and everytime I had I knife, I would think about my future and how cutting myself as a temporary relief and its shameful to look at later on. (:
I hate it when people act like the understand what cutters go threw. What kind of life we live each day, the pain and hurt we feel the stress, they dont understand so they need to stop acting like they do!. It gets annoying when peoplee call you syco or crazy or that we need help,people cut them self for some sort of reason and it doesnt always mean we do it to kill are self it might be to maybe let go of all the stress or they want attenion but not always to kill are self.
I get where you're coming from. I cut and I don't think puting shitty lables on it make any diffrence. One question, is it like a poblem of mine that. . . I like not wearing anything on my arms a lot of places (I stopped doing it at school)? I mean. . . I'm begning to think it's my way of wanting people to see them and wanting people to ask so that I don't have to tell them upfront. The only person, I ligitimately tolf was my best friend, but she dosen't know where I'm coming from. Message me?
you sre fucking amazing do you know that? i know how you feel and how that guy feels and btw i feel sorry for him idk why his friends would do that i cut myself and i have lost some friends because i have told them i have lost my bestfriend because of that but i guess they were not really my friends aye and i fucking hate it when peope say shit like that to me like my own family will say stuff like "omg your fucked up your insane you need help" and that made me cut more so i know how you feel :(
I would be LIVID if someone said that to me, me and many many other self injurers have huge respect for life. People have no idea how insensitive or ignorant they can be about this, they always handle it the wrong way, you know like those friends who will almost scream it over and over again in public and threaten to tell everyone. :( my dear you explain everything so well and so perfectly, you're right in every way and I hope more people will listen to you

i personally think that people who mutilate themselfes are mentally weak, and yeah, i''ve been in fucked up situations too, i slipped into a psychosis, heard voices in myn head, saw stuff that wasnt even there, thought about sickening stuff, wanted to commit suicide, but i stopped, blocked my emotions to prevent things like suicide, built my plan to overcome the trouble, faced it, ran right into it, and won, still psychotic, but happy, thats what its all about.

anybody who mutilates him/hersef is absolutely mental, why the fudge would you cut/burn your body ? once you were born as a beautiful baby, a beautiful child, you received a miracle of nature, a fully functioning beautifull body ! are the mutilation people doing it to ''bleed out the pain'' ? arent you strong enough to fix your goddamn problems while using your god given mind ? is it to get a taste of dieing by almost committing suicide ? i say again, use your brain to handle yur emotions.

i cut and when ppl say "bleed out the pain" thts realii how it is when i'm depressed i try to make myself feel better but most the time the only thing tht can help is a blade...don't tlk shit about every person who cuts especially if you don't kno what they've been threw...

@Paigeheartsu You seriously need to find a way to handle you struggles diffrently, Doesnt matter what it is, as long as it doesnt seriously damage your health. If you have the feeling that your problems are pushing you around, and you get way to tired to push back, try to pull, that way you immobilize your problems more efficiently.. Stop punishing yourself due to what your thinking feeling and/or what happened in the past, Accept your feelings and thoughts, but dont agree with them. Good luck

You are a great person to be so open to this. Once people see my scars they looks at me and make an ugly face. In your other video you said that your friend called the police in which you had been talking to him about your situation. I went through something similar but this guy didn't know shit about me yet he ratted me out and I had to be admitted to the psyche ward. I was so angry with him because he didn't give a shit about me. I hate people who have nothing to with your life judge you.

i have a few scars on my arm but i always try to hide them. i never know what to do when im wearing short sleeves....but for me now its a kind of reflex to hold my hand there so it cant be seen. but im ok now because i dont do it anymore, even though it can be really hard when im upset. are you feeling any better?
luv4alwayz 3 months ago in playlist Liked
@luv4alwayz Yeah, he wasn't really my friend, it was high school. Never asked me "Are you okay?" Nothing. And I was threatened to seek treatment. A teacher said "if you don't go now there will be two big men who will take you away in an ambulance in a strait jacket." It's very hard to hide them I used to wear a lot of bracelets or arm warmers to cover it. I didn't want attention I just wanted a release. And I know how you feel when you get the urge, I haven't done it in two years but it helps...

My best friend would harm herself for years and only really got suicidal about it after her mom died. It was really difficult to learn to accept it when I myself have anxiety which had prevented me from ever doing it to myself, yet made me feel paranoid as hell about losing her at the same time, but luckily I understood the damage done to her when others called her out on it and how it made her more likely to do it. I just learned to shut up about it and try not to drive myself insane over it.

Anyone injuring himself invites demons inside himself. Injuring oneself has consequeses as the act itself derives from hurting inside. Not being on the right path in life, by not accepting Jesus, leaves your soul empty in life, and demons will comewhen you take extreme measures, as injuring and drugs. This coping mechanisms is excellent for Satan to drive you into a binding, obsessive behaviour. Your mind think the way Satan wants, your soul remains his, you remain in darkness.

And what a great way for those two guys, or any one really, to make you feel bad for feeling bad and doing something about it.

I've never been through self inflicted injury myself, but I've felt a similar way due to depression. I think it's about wanting to feel alive and experience something other than the numbness/disconnect of your everyday life or punishing yourself for some perceived failure. It has nothing to do with suicidal thoughts although you can experience both.

@tunaheadfry what she is saying that it's a problem, and cutters have no control over it. When a sudden burst of negative emotions surface up at the same time, it's really hard to contain yourself. Cut, usually, releases that energy by jolting you back to inflicted pain. Just another medical condition, like addiction, some have it, some develop it. In the end, she wants people to understand and mind their own business. If you really want to know, ask in privacy.

I am a church going girl i believe in god and i still self injury that has nothing to do with it ... And it doesnt mean the devil makes me do it... It all depends on the feelings of the person and whats going on in their lives... And its their choice to self injure so BACK OFF let them do what they want

How all my friends knew is one of my friends saw some scars and forced my sleeve up and then he went about showing and telling everyone else in the class. Now I am now known as the "emo". Sigh, I hate that name so much. Now all the topics we talk about 80% of the time is why do I cut myself or they joke about it. It gets annoying after awhile...

I told my best friend of 20ish years, and as i expected he was cool and understanding....All he told me was that he was there for me, and he would stay my best friend.....and nothing would change that...........

OK ppl. I don't self injure, other than smoking too many cigarettes, which is obviously not a good idea, and also quite addictive. What the majority don't understand (have you even tried), is that it is a coping skill. It sucks that it's permanent, and so hard to get treatment for, but did you ever think that there is an alternative that is worse? She's not dead! Until someone is able to stop the best help you can give is acceptance. Not approval of the act. Approval of the person not judgement.

and ya really!!! just because people self injure doesn't mean we are trying to kill ourselves..think about it...if we wanted to kill ourselves...we could do it...there are fast and easy ways to do it....sooo stfu about us wanting to die dumb asses..and ya we do know a lot about what we do.....i'm a cutter..and i'm going to be a psychologists because of this reason

@misslooplap and what am i wrong about though...? i mean i think i would know if i wanted to die or not...and i don't want to and i know a lot of cutters who don't want to die...so if your saying i'm wrong about that then whatever that is your opinion but your definitley way more wrong..but if that isn't what you were talking about then explain please?
mustardboytellem 11 months ago
@mustardboytellem well that's not it lol. I was saying that God has e erything to do with cutting. The devil is the one making you want to cut and God is the opposite of the devil. God created ur body and wants to help you stop. Religion is wrong and you won't get anything for that but if ur a christian (not a religion) you are free. U can sin and you won't get punished or zapped by god but you repent and feel better. Please just try God. Ask him to be the lord of ur life in jesus' name

@misslooplap oh well that makes more sense then. but i do go to church..and i still cut myself. i mean i ask for forgiveness you know. i mean i belive in God and i ask him for help and i go to church but i still cut...i don't want to die and God knows that but its like church doesn't help, therapy doesn't help, my friends and family can't help...i feel like it doesn't make me a bad person...i'm nothing like the devil..i am the sweetest girl you'll ever meet and i don't feel like cutting makes me

@mustardboytellem haha iit does but I just to clear it up, I didn't say if you cut ur the devil. I said the devil makes you cut. Btw I'm the same as you. Nice church going girl who self harms (not anymore. Going on a month!)anywhoo friends are like the worst people to go to. Talking to God helped me. Also writing in my diary and everytime I had I knife, I would think about my future and how cutting myself as a temporary relief and its shameful to look at later on. (:

I hate it when people act like the understand what cutters go threw. What kind of life we live each day, the pain and hurt we feel the stress, they dont understand so they need to stop acting like they do!. It gets annoying when peoplee call you syco or crazy or that we need help,people cut them self for some sort of reason and it doesnt always mean we do it to kill are self it might be to maybe let go of all the stress or they want attenion but not always to kill are self.

I get where you're coming from. I cut and I don't think puting shitty lables on it make any diffrence. One question, is it like a poblem of mine that. . . I like not wearing anything on my arms a lot of places (I stopped doing it at school)? I mean. . . I'm begning to think it's my way of wanting people to see them and wanting people to ask so that I don't have to tell them upfront. The only person, I ligitimately tolf was my best friend, but she dosen't know where I'm coming from. Message me?
