A couple of weeks ago i went to a mental hospital, (twice on the same month) for cutting. I dont know why i cut, i just like the feeling. Its not like i have a terrible life or anything. I still fight the erge. But im glad i did it. :)
I've been cutting since after i tried killing myself....long story but a few friends have caught me cutting or figured out that i was cutting so my mom some magical way found out and told my therapist that i was cutting but look at all the good that did I'm still cutting....a few days later
all my thoughts exactly but the urges get so difficult, people know about it... im a freshman in high school and i didnt go to my christmas formal because of my scars. i sat in my room making it worst , its so hard to stop, i stop for a few days and then start again, i sstopped for maybe 5 days now and now i need to do it again im having withdraws...
if anyone on here wants to talk, i'm here. just message me, i'll listen to you. i can try to help. i hope i can prevent anybody from taking that first cut, or stop. i have experienced cutting. and burning. i'm trying to stop. i don't think anyone should have to go through self harm. so really, if anyone at all needs someone to talk to, i am here.
not everybody has "clean arms" i don't it isn't something i am proud of or something i brag about but it is part of me. these suicide marks show that i have gone through things in my life that no one ever should and though i am stronger because of it i see them and i know that it doesn't matter is i have pure skin because i am not pure and the sooner people learn to except that of some people the sooner we as humans can move on.
Thank you! You helped me help my friends! I was always scared of knives never liked 'em! I literally called my mom in front of my friends at age 12 saying :MOM!! COME HELP ME USE THE KNIFE!" I was scared like shit from this
If only this video existed one year before it was posted, my life cxould of been different... If i could take back my fist cut i would... but i just cant stop.
I used to have a friend, but he turned everyone to hate me and i almost cut myself, Then i relized i had a future.DONT CUT YOUR SELF ( Well i sorta did once but i know i'm a better person than them
Never will I stop. It's already done too much damage. I know it'll come soon, when I cut too deep. If you're considering self harm- don't. It will tear your life apart.
@SackGirlie Recovery is possible. I once thought this myself, but I did stop. Support, trust, and effective communication can put you on the path to recovery. Talking may help. :)
i love this video it made me cry...... i self injur and i know what its like.... not a lot of people get it.. they goup us as emo ?? emo is a style you feel normal when you find other people who do it.. somehow its always on your mind. i think your video couldnt say it any better....
The girl you just called fat?... She is overdosing on diet pills. The girl you just called ugly?... She spends hours putting makeup on hoping people will like her. The boy you just tripped?... He is abused enough at home. See that man with the ugly scars?... He fought for his country. That guy you just made fun of for crying?... His mother is dying. repost if your aginst bullying
I started cutting because of being bullied if u have ever bullied sum one look wat u can do to them I miss the beach and the pool, and sleeveless shirts I hide my scars and cuts everyday under bracelets don't put that first cut i only did one and everyday I would put 10 to 20 more cuts the sad thing: I'm 11
I'm 13 ... I made that 'first cut' last year, and now all those little things I took for granted .. are gone , I ant wear shorts and tanktops like all my friends :s don't do it , just don't make the same mistake I did.
I cut....yes. Do you feel the pain addicting? Yes. Do you feel like your depression, low self esteem washes away after dry up the blood and throw it away? Yes. And so much more... do I hate myself....ohhh yes I do. When I look in the mirror what do I see? A girl who is worthless, a disappointment, a failure, a nobody I think... So in other words. Life is hard right now.

@lesackgirl I'm right there with you. I'm 12 and in the seventh grade and I cut myself. The worst part is I'll do it any where. School, the store, the bathroom. I'll give myself eraser burns and cut my self with broken pens. It really is horrible. :(
It may be scary, but I'm 12 and I cut myself. I just feel so unhappy and alone. Even though I have friends, I don't think I fit in with them. It is getting worse. What's even more worrying, I pray while I do it. If I've done something bad in the day, that is how I pay for it. The only person that I would ever talk to about this is my Technology teacher. Should I talk to him? I don't know if he'd listen it not...... Anybody, please help. And NEVER start cutting..... Just like I did.. And I regre
@Killedkid987. I also care. I've also been cutting myself. I know what it feels like to be alone. In my weeks I have found out that having just one friend who's always there for you can make the world of a difference. Don't keep it bottled up cuz it'll only get worse. Try and challenge yourself to go two months without it. To show yourself you can get past this. I'll be honest I still do. But plz. Just find someone.
I have seen this poem before, word for word. I have it in a notebook. One of my friends wrote it. I thought he wrote it but now I'm not so sure.... Either way, everything it says in it, I can relate to. Everytime I read it, my heart starts pounding because I fear that someone is reading my mind or something.... Or I fear that someone will come in as I'm reading it and demand to see what I'm holding. I don't know.... I just can't stray from thoughts or cravings to do it.... I just do it...
@som3rand0mguy27 hi. if you need help, or just want to talk about ANYTHING then i'm here. that is why i made my channel. to help self harmers and prevent others from taking that first cut.
I cut but when I can't cut myself like if I'm out with family I starve myself... I don't know what's happened to me. My dad makes me eat if he senses I'm starving myself. I don't want to eat. It's part of my wanting to be who everyone wants me to be. Nothing I do is good enough for anyone.
@ForeverYours132 I do the same... My dad likes to check my arms for cuts. So, i can't do it in the desired spot.. But I started starving myself and my dad tries to force me to eat. I hate eating. It makes me feel sick anytime I eat or drink anything. I get the whole thing of being who everyone wants me to be. Like that song by Evanescence, "Everybody's Fool", I feel like I'm fooling my entire family into making them think I'm all better since my last placement in a mental hospital... Not at all
I wrote a song about my friend that was cutting called Brea’s song. To see me perform it live copy or type (mason Bellamy Cedarville) in Youtube’s search window (I can’t post a link). THANKS!
~~PLEASE spread the word if you like it (Facebook, Twitter, ECT)! I want hurting kids to know their value and see it!~~ “YOU ARE A DIAMOND YOU’RE NO LONGER COAL”
@lifediary111 That is not what cutting is about. The fact that you were going to write next to it afterwoods, shows me that you are trying to make some sort of creative expression. Besides, if you really wanted to cut, you wouldn't be on YouTube asking for the opinion. Believe me, I know.
I've been thinking about cutting and have partaken in mild self harm(biting wrists,minor slits,etc) My mom sorta knows,as does my youth group leader,and a few of my friends.I feel like they should show these videos in school..but unlike sex,drugs,and eating disorders this critical issue is hardly talked about in Health class because most adults don't know a lot about it yet(none of them really grew up with it around)
i havnt cutyet. i just had a shaving razor in my hand. ready to cut my wrist then write love next to it in marker. then i put it down and came here. should i make the first cut?
it will ruin your life. trust me i know. you don't want to go there. it feels good at first. it helps. but then you don't need it anymore. you can't quit thinking about it, then you can't stop. even if you do you are always thinking of ways to hurt yourself. trust me, don't do it. if you need to talk, i am here.
i watched this before i started using a blade but i dunno it just didnt stop me i was in too much of a state to even know what i was doing i aint cut for ages not properly but i still hit my self and stuff only cos i aint got a blade no more -.-
It's sad that it's mostly people who already cut that watch these things. Although personally, if any of my friends uttered that they might even try it I would send them to this video and persuade them against it by any means possible.
Plus for me, even though it probably should be triggering it isn't. This video makes me go 'right, these are some of the reasons I don't want to do this anymore' , even if I do know them to be true already
Cutting may be way more addictive than some hard drugs...
because while you may go into withdrawl because you don't have your ecstasy, your body is always right there. If you can't cut, you;ll do other things; scratch, bite, choke yourself. The supply of feeding this addiction is endless until you're dead.
The first time I cut was a little over two years ago. I have yet to make that first deep cut to to get those hundreds of scars, but I know it's coming to me. Quickly

I've been permanent disqualified from the military, incapable of joining a sobriety at my new college, and left isolated from my family because of cutting.
If you have to: drink, binge eat, starve, get in a fight. Cope in any other way besides cutting because the scars are there permanently.
So true... I wish I had watched this before I started. I can't even remember what was going through my head when I made my first cut. But nowI'm regretting it. I haven't cut in two months, but I'm about to break. I'm so scared...
this is so true. i feel this way every day of my life. dont do it. dont make that first cut. you well hate yourself forever. and i know. cuz i hate myself for doing it.... :,(
Thats why i want people who are thinking of self harming to not even try. I don't care if it's just one time because one time is all it takes. You get addicted, I did. I thought "one time, I won't get addicted" and I did, you end up doing it not because your sad or angry, but the temptation gets so bad for some people. And those scars don't go away, you live with them. They take over your life and you hide behind them and it can be years and years until they've faded if at all.
cutting is the worst addiction ever! and you think you can stop but you seriously can't i only cutted my legs thinking it would be easier to hide nope its not!
some people think that self harming is just to get attention... its not, for those who do it, they will find it an addiction and find it hard to stop. i find it hard when i have some of my year bullying me and my "best friend who hurts" comes out. if only stopping was that simple :/
I wish i had seen this years ago... I want to stop but i dont want to at the same time. Im scared i wont be able to cope anymore if i dont...i already feel so close to the edge.
I feel like such a hypocrite when i tell people not to do it but its because after you cut you spend all your time and energy hidding it and before you cut your wondering and stressing about the next time your going to be anble to cut and what object youll use... Its the worst.
This video makes me cry everytime, I can't even express how much I regret starting, all the pain it's caused my family and the people I've lost because of it.
Right now i'm having a break down cuz everything said and not said in that video was truth, and it rings in my head. It's beautiful i wish i could of seen it before
You all are so brave to post your thoughts and feelings on here using screen names. I've been watching these vids about self injury for almost 4 hours now. Every story breaks my heart even more than the next :( . I have never cut myself or thought about it, it's very upsetting for me to realize how people are treated who do this. Your all " human ", but sometimes that's not enough. I'm sorry that each and every one of u do this to yourselves, I just know that I am more aware than I was before.
Ugh, trigger. e_e I really wish I had seen this six months ago, before I began destroying my body. I'm now stuck with hundreds of scars all over my body, and constantly adding more. I wish I wasn't me.

MEN CUT ALSO!! I think that even among us cutters, this is a very divisive and polarizing topic that should not be discussed unless you are willing to be respectful of others. I respect others' privacy and I suggest professional help to those contemplating this practice. But how does that erase pain and dispair? It doesn't. Cutting numbs that. If you don't know what I mean, you try being single for 17 years, then tell me about cutting! Lonliness is fatal....not cutting!!
I agree that cutting is NOT the answer. It is a coping mechanism and it does provide temporary relief. However, watching this video to me is more similar to a horror movie than reality. I have a total of 88 scars up and down my arms. I am NOT ashamed of what I've done and I don't condone it. but it helped me. This video is not quite accurate though I appreciate the message. I'm 40 yrs old and haven't cut myself in 4 years. Girls are notthe only ones who cut. Lonliness is a killer...not cutting!
i know, it is addicting, but i got over it, i have got scars all up my stomach and when my friends say they want to cut themselves i show them my scars and tell them that this is not what they want, my mum saw mine as i was getting ready for work, she went into depression because of it. i felt soo bad. i liked watching the blood come out and the smell would just trigger me. im glad i stopped. i feel guilty that i did it. so dont do it.
i almost got caught. my friend was joking that she did and i thought about all the awfulness and needed help for her...when its actually me who is the cutter. i decided to wear a big bracelet to softball because of it. whenever i need strength or pain i look at my scars.
...it only gets worse. okay? its the damn truth and you know it. you might not cut deeper..but if you have a true problem..it only gets worse..if you stay hiden. it will only get worse...no one person can pull you out..you have to grow some balls swallow that little sliver of masked pride you have and get meddical help..forget about your parents ...or what people will think...cuase trust me there thoughts get better when you can stop being so withdrawn and moody...cuase that gets worse to.
What program did you use to make this video? It's incredible and very well put together! :) Thanks for posting and creating it! I'm working on a video right now for my abnormal psych class going through a list of 92 disorders! Hope it'll turn out like yours :)

@GothicaJ Why thank you :) Making vids is actually kind of a hobby of mine. I used Sony Vegas 6. I'd be happy to help you out if you need any advice or anything.
Thanks! Appreciate it! Does Sony Vegas 6 use a timeline or is it retarded like Imovie 08? How much is that program? I've used final cut and although it does a LOT, i don't like how you have to install so many different programs just to do different things, like word transitions and effects and that sort of thing.
I wish I new all this b4 I hav started cutting... Each year my cuts get deeper nd deeper... I want help but the same time... I want it to slowly kill me bc I'm stupid... I want and need help... HELP ME....
Wish I could give all those who are saying "too late" or "I am free" a big hug. I've never reached to a real cutting point but knowing it starts with a scratch and what impact it has is definitely eye opening. Thank you for the video :')
Everyone please thumbs up so others will read what I have to say.. Most of you will think "This won't happen to me if I do it once".. That's exactly what I thought! I made that first cut about an hour of watching this video.. Around two years ago. I've been cutting since, and I'm just starting going to consoling. The pain just feels so relaxing. What this video doesn't say is that you will be bullied so much if you are caught.. You'll want to huddle up and cry. Do yourself a favor. Dont start!):
I'm so sorry to hear what you are going through being involved or knowing someone involved in cutting. If you seek help, and you feel you can't find the help to bring deliverence, and peace in your life. Sincerely seek Jesus, Ask Jesus to come into your life, ask him to forgive you, ask him to help you to live for him. by faith HE CAN HELP YOU............. : )
I want to thank you for this video i was about to start cutting my self again, in the middle of watching it i threw the knife at the ground. . . .who ever you are you may have saved my life!
this is a great video so true but there is hope if you have started. email me at stroud3_2012@yahoo.com i WAS a cutter for 6 yrs but i am FREE. and you can be too. just ask me how i did it? 7 months and counting
@SprinklesMonkey12345 but its not to late to quit. 7 months of freedom for me stroud3_2012@yahoo.com if you want to know how i got out of 6 yrs of cutting
and not all of it is right. u do hold back from ur friends, but not always as much as ur saying. u can look like the happiest and funniest girl or guy in the room, talk to everyone, make everyone SWEAR your happy and STILL cut and tell no one. and i don't know if everyone ends up cutting to deep cuz idk everyone in the world, maybe a lot of people do.
but u were right about everything else which hurt me even more. :(
(2/2)keeping my sweatshirt sleeves long enough. I believe if you know you can stop, that cutting can be very helpful. It saved my life. It's ironic, it can save your life, while endangering it at the same time. Thanks for the upload, I'll have to email you...
(1/2) About 75% of the information in this video is accurate; but it depends on how much of an addictive personality you have. Me personally, I wanted to cut, it wasn't an obsession, when I needed to stop, I could. But it was still hard, I waited months for the scars to fade away. Sometimes if you cut too deep, the scars never go away. June 2008 is the first time I cut, I cut regularly until about April 2010, I recently started again though, November 19. I find myself constantly worried about
i wish i had thought of that before i started cutting, im exactly what you said in this video, im 13, i started cutting in September and now it really is like i cant live with out self harm i cut every night because every night i really do feel so alone and so down the longest i have went without cutting is two days i have told my friend she isnt really helpful she kinda shouted and then left it i want to get help but i dont want my mum to no what will i do im lost and for mean people im not emo
@Spree131 me as well if only i knew how out of control this would get :( i wish id never done it and also that was a beautiful video so elegently done elpelco congrats
i am a cutter and i never take care of my cuts afterwards and when i was younger i said i would never to that to myself and now look i have been doing it for 3 years i wish i hadnt started because now stopping is a nightmare and i dont know how to stop myself i cant go a day without cutting myself and i cant stop once ive started till im satisfied
i never wanted to get to the point where i relied on cutting but i have and now stopping is hell
cutting has ruined my life and my scars are hidden
@brita911 I know exactly how you feel. I cut for just over three years myself. And all i would think about was when i could do the next one. And if i went a day without doing it i would have a panic attack. But It gets better. I havent cut Deep in almost 1 year. And the last time i cut it wasnt bad and was 6 months ago. I know you don't want to do this But talk to a friend. And ,Try to go one day. without doing it i know it will be hard. But start small don't try to quit all together.goodluck!
@slytherin0queen ya i understand the panic attacks good job on your progress and going 6 months :) thats a big accomplishment. i currently talk to 2 friends about my cutting and they are trying to help me stop. i hate disappointing them everytime i cut myself again. as of right now i have only made it 2 days without cutting and i dont know how much longer i can take not cutting its brutal. i describe me stopping cutting like a drug addict whos detoxing from drugs. thanks for the encouragement :)
@brita911 Thankyou. And i wish you alot of luck. Going two days is a big step.
and it's exactly like a drug. You get completely addicted. And use the guilt when your about to cut thing about your friends. and how it would make you feel if they were doing the same. It will help you. I did that when i was trying to stop. (:
@slytherin0queen thanks i have now been almost 4 days i am trying not to relapse tonight but its gonna be hard not to because thats the only thing i wanna do right now. i have 2 friends who check up on me often and find out how i am doing and if i cut. sometimes the addiction overcomes the guilt and overcomes how much i hate hurting my friends when ii cut. this is one of many attempts to quit and im glad i have my friends. i know i cant do this alone. keep going strong without it :)
@brita911 That's good and i know the addiction can overcome the guilt it's happended to me before. And if you feel like you have to cut. Take a marker And draw a square on your legs or where you cut. And keep it inside that square. That helped me so i wouldn't get out of control. And if you ever need any advice on quitting or just need to talk to someone who has cut before feel free to message me anytime okay ?
@brita911 I stil cut myself and its a hard habbit to break when ever im depressed thts the first thing i do and i want to stop ull get through it though and over time U wil start to relise tht if u cary on u might get seriously hurt i tink tht evrytime i do it wat if i cut to deep? wat do i archieve from dis think about it and know tht there are peeps who can help nd Uve always got sum1 there for U tell that person nd slowly ease Urself of this adictive punishment nd we will get through this
@lovelybones1111 well if u ever need anyone to talk to then u can always message me on here just so that you know. i always think about going too deep because everytime i cut i cut a little bit deeper then the time before. i have people trying to help me stop cutting and am waiting to go see yet another counsellor to try and get help to stop. im trying to stop so far 2 and a half days but its normally not until night time when i cut myself. these days have been a living hell for me without it
This video is true, i said just one little one, and now i have over a hundred cut and i have been doing it for over a year. i always look at people to see if they have scars and get upset when they dont, i am always alon i have lost so many friends, and i am always hiding in my room. cutting has ruind my life and i try to stop, but at the same time i couldnt live without it.
not all this is true theres ways of covering it than just tops theres ways you can wear short sleaved tops without seeing it just cover them with sweat bands bracelets or studs it's pretty easy and yeh it becomes addictive but you don't always go so far and most people don't feel the pain because the ones that don't do it for attention usually have a reason to do it and it takes the pain away so it just kind of helps them xx
@Txbroad832 it's never to late i stopped for a while now and i can't say that it is now better when i was cutting my self i would feel free but not for long the time always became smaller now i just found some other 'drug' that keeps me away from even thinking about it . now it's your time to find your drug that is not cutting jourself
I have had the same problem with cutting, ive went to therapy for it. i had to stop b/c of my mom. i'm 19 now and i still want to do it but others wont allow. i am married too and stress makes me want to cut. i have ugly scars all over my arms and legs from it. i dont understand why this is not accepted but other bodily harm like smoking and drinking is accepted. the media is stupid.
i like pain and i have cut in the past, i enjoy the sight and taste of blood, and i dont cut anymore, its not hard to stop, all you have to do is go smoke a blunt and go apply for college. :)
i cut myself today to see if i still feel the razor tears a whole the only pain that's real. what have i become a crazy fool i should just stop and focus more at school. I really should stop; all of these scars what will people think; i wish to get hit by a car. My life is just so bad cause daddy did something bad so now i cut myself and no one seems to care
Wow, I wish I could have stopped cutting, I started a year ago. I remember one day I forgot to cover up but, no one noticed not my mom nor my dad they didnt even look at my arms, so when that happend I realized I could cut as may times and they wou;dnt notice. So I continued cutting and again they never noticed,I stil cut i wish I coud stop but, things are hard you know? when i'm having a good day I feel guilty for it like, 'why are you happy you dont deserve to be' I dont know when ill stop.
if only i sa this 4 months ago. it all happened so soon. i want to just take it back, but the pain in my arms makes me forget about all the other pain. i make a cut everytime something goes bad. i have too many cuts. i hate having to act for my vids and in real life that im happy, cuz im not. if only i saw this maybe i would be normal again. if only
I know how much of a hard habit it is to get out of. You need a lot of strength to do so. I always try to remember that, when you hurt yourself, in the long run, you're also hurting the people who love you.
Still though, it's absolutely not easy. The video rings true. After a while it becomes an addicting way to deal with the pain. But be strong. You can escape from it.
@Abstir010 i feel your pain, young one... i still have a cutting problem... im running out of secluded skin... and i honestly fear my next doctors appointment where i will be naked, and she will see all my wounds... go see a psychoilogist, they might help
@Hipboy125 I have had the same problem with cutting. Ive worried about what my doctor would say when they seen the cuts or scars, and they are not allowed to tell anyone because of the doctor-patient confidentiality rule. good luck.
wow i wish i watched this video about 2 years ago. but yes very inspirational in my opinion. and i cant wear shorts anymore. :-( i regret it. but its hard to stop. so never start. talk to someone. like a close friend. Be Strong.
O my gosh! this video made me cry because im a cutter and no matter what, i cant stop cutting...

not everybody has "clean arms" i don't it isn't something i am proud of or something i brag about but it is part of me. these suicide marks show that i have gone through things in my life that no one ever should and though i am stronger because of it i see them and i know that it doesn't matter is i have pure skin because i am not pure and the sooner people learn to except that of some people the sooner we as humans can move on.

Never will I stop. It's already done too much damage. I know it'll come soon, when I cut too deep. If you're considering self harm- don't. It will tear your life apart.

please do not start cutting yourself
i made the first cut a year ago not thinking how addictive it would be
honestly it will ruin your life,you will lose friends and your old life
you wont be able to undo once youve started
i wish i had never started to cut myself
now it became a habit
and each time you will want to cut deeper and the scary thing about that is that once i cut deeper instead of freaking out i felt proud of myself.
how fucked up is that?
just dont start please!

@Killedkid987. I also care. I've also been cutting myself. I know what it feels like to be alone. In my weeks I have found out that having just one friend who's always there for you can make the world of a difference. Don't keep it bottled up cuz it'll only get worse. Try and challenge yourself to go two months without it. To show yourself you can get past this. I'll be honest I still do. But plz. Just find someone.

@lifediary111 That is not what cutting is about. The fact that you were going to write next to it afterwoods, shows me that you are trying to make some sort of creative expression. Besides, if you really wanted to cut, you wouldn't be on YouTube asking for the opinion. Believe me, I know.

It's sad that it's mostly people who already cut that watch these things. Although personally, if any of my friends uttered that they might even try it I would send them to this video and persuade them against it by any means possible.
Plus for me, even though it probably should be triggering it isn't. This video makes me go 'right, these are some of the reasons I don't want to do this anymore' , even if I do know them to be true already

Cutting may be way more addictive than some hard drugs...
because while you may go into withdrawl because you don't have your ecstasy, your body is always right there. If you can't cut, you;ll do other things; scratch, bite, choke yourself. The supply of feeding this addiction is endless until you're dead.
The first time I cut was a little over two years ago. I have yet to make that first deep cut to to get those hundreds of scars, but I know it's coming to me. Quickly
Don't start cutting. Ever

Thats why i want people who are thinking of self harming to not even try. I don't care if it's just one time because one time is all it takes. You get addicted, I did. I thought "one time, I won't get addicted" and I did, you end up doing it not because your sad or angry, but the temptation gets so bad for some people. And those scars don't go away, you live with them. They take over your life and you hide behind them and it can be years and years until they've faded if at all.

MEN CUT ALSO!! I think that even among us cutters, this is a very divisive and polarizing topic that should not be discussed unless you are willing to be respectful of others. I respect others' privacy and I suggest professional help to those contemplating this practice. But how does that erase pain and dispair? It doesn't. Cutting numbs that. If you don't know what I mean, you try being single for 17 years, then tell me about cutting! Lonliness is fatal....not cutting!!

I agree that cutting is NOT the answer. It is a coping mechanism and it does provide temporary relief. However, watching this video to me is more similar to a horror movie than reality. I have a total of 88 scars up and down my arms. I am NOT ashamed of what I've done and I don't condone it. but it helped me. This video is not quite accurate though I appreciate the message. I'm 40 yrs old and haven't cut myself in 4 years. Girls are notthe only ones who cut. Lonliness is a killer...not cutting!

(1/2) About 75% of the information in this video is accurate; but it depends on how much of an addictive personality you have. Me personally, I wanted to cut, it wasn't an obsession, when I needed to stop, I could. But it was still hard, I waited months for the scars to fade away. Sometimes if you cut too deep, the scars never go away. June 2008 is the first time I cut, I cut regularly until about April 2010, I recently started again though, November 19. I find myself constantly worried about

And if i went a day without doing it i would have a panic attack. But It gets better. I havent cut Deep in almost 1 year. And the last time i cut it wasnt bad and was 6 months ago. I know you don't want to do this But talk to a friend. And ,Try to go one day. without doing it i know it will be hard. But start small don't try to quit all together.goodluck!

@slytherin0queen ya i understand the panic attacks good job on your progress and going 6 months :) thats a big accomplishment. i currently talk to 2 friends about my cutting and they are trying to help me stop. i hate disappointing them everytime i cut myself again. as of right now i have only made it 2 days without cutting and i dont know how much longer i can take not cutting its brutal. i describe me stopping cutting like a drug addict whos detoxing from drugs. thanks for the encouragement :)

@brita911 Thankyou. And i wish you alot of luck. Going two days is a big step.
and it's exactly like a drug. You get completely addicted. And use the guilt when your about to cut thing about your friends. and how it would make you feel if they were doing the same. It will help you. I did that when i was trying to stop. (:

@slytherin0queen thanks i have now been almost 4 days i am trying not to relapse tonight but its gonna be hard not to because thats the only thing i wanna do right now. i have 2 friends who check up on me often and find out how i am doing and if i cut. sometimes the addiction overcomes the guilt and overcomes how much i hate hurting my friends when ii cut. this is one of many attempts to quit and im glad i have my friends. i know i cant do this alone. keep going strong without it :)
brita911 1 year ago
@brita911 That's good and i know the addiction can overcome the guilt it's happended to me before. And if you feel like you have to cut. Take a marker And draw a square on your legs or where you cut. And keep it inside that square. That helped me so i wouldn't get out of control. And if you ever need any advice on quitting or just need to talk to someone who has cut before feel free to message me anytime okay ?

@lovelybones1111 well if u ever need anyone to talk to then u can always message me on here just so that you know. i always think about going too deep because everytime i cut i cut a little bit deeper then the time before. i have people trying to help me stop cutting and am waiting to go see yet another counsellor to try and get help to stop. im trying to stop so far 2 and a half days but its normally not until night time when i cut myself. these days have been a living hell for me without it

not all this is true theres ways of covering it than just tops theres ways you can wear short sleaved tops without seeing it just cover them with sweat bands bracelets or studs it's pretty easy and yeh it becomes addictive but you don't always go so far and most people don't feel the pain because the ones that don't do it for attention usually have a reason to do it and it takes the pain away so it just kind of helps them xx

@Txbroad832 it's never to late i stopped for a while now and i can't say that it is now better when i was cutting my self i would feel free but not for long the time always became smaller now i just found some other 'drug' that keeps me away from even thinking about it . now it's your time to find your drug that is not cutting jourself

I have had the same problem with cutting, ive went to therapy for it. i had to stop b/c of my mom. i'm 19 now and i still want to do it but others wont allow. i am married too and stress makes me want to cut. i have ugly scars all over my arms and legs from it. i dont understand why this is not accepted but other bodily harm like smoking and drinking is accepted. the media is stupid.

i like pain and i have cut in the past, i enjoy the sight and taste of blood, and i dont cut anymore, its not hard to stop, all you have to do is go smoke a blunt and go apply for college. :)

Wow, I wish I could have stopped cutting, I started a year ago. I remember one day I forgot to cover up but, no one noticed not my mom nor my dad they didnt even look at my arms, so when that happend I realized I could cut as may times and they wou;dnt notice. So I continued cutting and again they never noticed,I stil cut i wish I coud stop but, things are hard you know? when i'm having a good day I feel guilty for it like, 'why are you happy you dont deserve to be' I dont know when ill stop.

I know how much of a hard habit it is to get out of. You need a lot of strength to do so. I always try to remember that, when you hurt yourself, in the long run, you're also hurting the people who love you.
Still though, it's absolutely not easy. The video rings true. After a while it becomes an addicting way to deal with the pain. But be strong. You can escape from it.
Take care, everyone..

@Abstir010 i feel your pain, young one... i still have a cutting problem... im running out of secluded skin... and i honestly fear my next doctors appointment where i will be naked, and she will see all my wounds... go see a psychoilogist, they might help

@Hipboy125 I have had the same problem with cutting. Ive worried about what my doctor would say when they seen the cuts or scars, and they are not allowed to tell anyone because of the doctor-patient confidentiality rule. good luck.
