this really hit me hard, i rememberd my grandpa's SLOW and probably painful 1 mouth on his deathbed, unable 2 talk suffering from 4 strokes in 1 week. this struck me, cuz there was nothing we could do but watch him die for 1 mounth. i cried for the first time in years. this touched me and i hope to god i dont break down again for awile.
This is a great video. Thank you. I am trying to help two of my friends stop. It's hard and I'm trying my best and this was very helpful to give me ideas of what they could do instead of the harm. Thanks again x
I really want to stop, but sometimes I DON'T want to stop. I have talked to many people who say they can help me, but it's not working. I'm just sick of adults who think they can do something with my problem, when they actually can't. >.<
I am 14 years old, and have been cutting since I was 10. I cut on my legs, and just told my parents this year about it. They think I'm psycho, but I am getting help from my teacher:) I'm trying to stop and I just want to let you guys know that there IS HELP AND GOD LOVES YOU! And I love you too:)
This song video/song makes me want to cry..one of my best friends has been on drugs...I've been trying to help them as best as I can..they told me I'm the only reason that they are still alive, I gave them hope...thats a feeling that there is no words to describe but its the best feeling in the world just knowing that I can help someone without friends and family who help them...they would've died. they were close when I found out about it
euuuw "Other methods include scratching, interference with healing of wounds, extreme nail biting, breaking of bones, hitting oneself, and hair pulling (Trichotillomania)"
@TheVampireOne I'm the same way... The only reason I stopped was because my boyfriend threatened to cut himself if I did. It sucks how addicting it is, and how much better it feels when we do. But I figure, as long as it's not draining us to the point of passing out, it's less harmful than doing drugs or drinking. :] If you need someone to talk to, feel free to email me. ^ - ^
I aways wore a rubber band on my wrist after I stopped cutting. When I got stressed or upset, I would just snap the rubberband on my wrist. It took place of the pain, but didn't leave any scars. I haven't cut since Feburary 2009.
I hurt myself. I scratch my arms, bite my hands, slap myself when I've not done as well in something as I wanted to, I burn myself, and I used to cut. This video really hit close to home for me, so... thanks.
Thank you very much for this video. I am 17 years old and have been a cutter since I was 12. It was formed from the life of abuse i had been in since i can remember. I could control the outside pain even if I couldn't control the outside pain...i have been trying to stop but keep falling back. Thanks for your insight.

I tried the rubberband thing and wound up snapping about five I was wearing. However, a great alternative is eating very hot peppers. That was a new one that I threw on the doctor and she was amazed at the alternative I had chosen, as opposed to cutting, because she had not thought about it.
This is a really good song, and a really good video. I started cutting myself when I was about 16. I'm 28 now. I've been trying so hard to stop, but I keep having slip ups. I've tried everything. Nothing seems to work. But there's one method that's not listed here and that's praying. Another good technique is the 15 minute technique. Wait 15 minutes b4 u pick up the razor blade, because after 15 minutes, the urges to cut yourself might go away.
Both my parents saw my cuts on my arms. I told them that sometimes I wake up and I have scratches on myself. They actually believed me. So now, I have to cut on my ankles and places where they won't be able to see. I'm 14, and I started cutting this year. Once you start, you can't stop easily. Its an addiction :x
yep its a addiction aw ryt ive only been cutting for just 2 months n ive covered my ryt arm in cuts i just recently got a proper razor blade n now its so easy to bleed im worried
lol im not a cutter lol i see all these deep comments but all i wanted to say is i like this song, its a nice love song...i loved when they used it on Vampire Diaries, that show is sooo awesome...ive been following one tree hill for the last 6 years and now I will be a follower for vampire diaries!!! the piano in this song is so pretty
Thank you for posting this. I've struggled with self-injury most of my life, starting after I was molested. It can be a very tough thing to stop doing, but you have to find other ways of coping, & of course I've had my relapses. It took time to realize that a relapse didn't mean I was weak or a failure. I understand the hopelessness that so many self-abusers feel. I didn't think I'd even live to the age of 27. To those out there suffering with the pain & shame of self-harm....don't give up!
Hey everyone. I know what your going through and if you want to talk I'm sooo here. I have cut and my friends did to so I know. I've stopped though and I want to help because I know what it's like
i didnt put this video as my favorite 2 show off. i fucked up my life i messed up everything ive been thinkin of suicide for monthz. i want 2 stop cutting but the truth is,is tht im nevr gonna be the same and im nevr gonna stop cuttin. im sure some of u guyz watchin this feelz the same way. i hate myself im ashamed. im gone and i will nevr gonna cum bck im dead!!
thank for this video. i have been cutting for a half year and i'm addicted to it but i'm also trying to stop. it's hard but i got some good tips from ur vid so ty again
I was glad this video wasn't triggering.. other ones i have watched made me want to cut so bad but this one didnt. thats really good!
I like your alternatives
i used to be a cutter. and the only alternative that didnt work for me was the talk to a friends one.. because all my friends were cutters so they couldn't help cuz they needed help to
but the only that did help was the music, screaming and yelling, and the ice. =]
hey if u guys ever need someone to talk to im here i used to cut myself and i stopped, so i know what you guys are going though , u can talk to me on here or aim , my aim is screamosaurus145
I've seen alot of these videos, and a lot of them are very very SHITTY, however, this i was pleasently surprised to find was quite touching and inspiring, thank you.
Its a really nice video. I was once a cutter myself. This video for me didn't trigger anything. I love the song. You really explained what being a cutter is about. You did a great job.
well, i guess i agree that any SI video can be triggering as well as the song...BUT i think this video was great. it's hard to find a video about SI that doesn't have any graphic pictures. I think you did an amazing job =]
Awsome vid, but you can't really say it's "non-triggering". The song itself is known to trigger some people, and depending on how sensitive someone is, talking about self injury - even giving facts, can be triggering.
this is an awesome video! i used to scratch my wrists till i would bleed. but then i was freeded from that. Jesus freeded me, ill be posting a vblog about it soon. this video is so true. im glad i found it before march 1st! now ill kno thats awerness day for this issue
the song was not meant 2 trigger cutting!!!! ppl take stuff 2 literal!!! its symbolic n its a Christian song!!! YES plumb is Christian!!!!!!
