  • i used to be the same way but then i started reading peoples personal strories online and most were just like yours. it was a struggle to stop and is still a struggle today to not do it but i want to thank you for making a video like this to show people what it really is. i started doing it cuz i wanted to fit in with the Emo kids but it led to so many different problems and by making this you are showing people that it isnt worth it at all so thank you so much for posting this :)

  • ill do the same, but i think worst, it helps me alot. :( when i do it it feels like

    nothing happen

    everything its gonna be ok

    pain is away

    im not alone

    hate is gone..

  • I dont understand why there would be any dislikes? this is a sad story which reminds me of the things i used to do as well. 

  • This is very "touching"...I'm Doug...I'm 12 years old right now...and I used to cute a lot...it got to the point where I had 59 cuts on my arm...I used to feel so amazing when I did it.I really like this video because it deffinetly does show all the side effects :) Thank you

  • may 6th my birthday

  • Thanks for sharing your story. Sometimes staying strong isn't easy. Suicidal thoughts haunt me daily and the only thing i have to stop me is my 2 year old niece who gets annoyed if she can't speak to me let alone if I vanished. Keep sharing your story, you could help so much more. I know it's helping me. I've recently seeked counseling for other issues of mine but slowly trying to tell her about this. Thank you again for showing the affects of it!

  • i am sooo proud of you that you stopped cutting your self i cried when i watched this video but at the end i was happy again its really good to not hurt your self and face your problems not run away from them

  • ... I'm crying right now </3

  • I regret every cut I made. The one the almost killed me and the ones that made me feel better. Im 20 now 4 years after the fact and the scars are so annoying. I have to cover them up and if someone sees I make up a crappy story. ie: Garbage had glass, I fell, testing my dull blades which happened to be sharp...All crap. I can't wear short with out cover up on my legs because the scars are still dark red, these are about 2 years old. It sucks but stay strong.

  • honey you are great and beautiful, let the haters hate. how are you doing now?

  • Well, fuck the haters, I say that was a very inspirational video (: and it sent a good message.

  • Mental.

  • @RealEmoKidd I am NOT putting this video on to attention seek whatsoever, the last thig I want is attention. I put it up to show others and myself self harm is a horrible way to deal with problems, and o show others they are not alone. You could of at least had the decency to read te description box.

  • @creepyclownsareweird Thankyou :')

  • @lunatheawesomee I took pictures not only for myself but for others to, to show how bad self harm can get and how it's nicer the right way to deal with things. And so I could look back and know never to do it again.

  • @JsBearCub Thankyou :)<3

  • @FuckingTrueable Thankyou so much :D

  • wow, i have to say, that I started to cry while watching this video. i'm really proud of you. you could stop cutting before it was too late (: this is wonderful. and you are beautiful :)

  • babaygurl ur so amazing. thank u for sharing ur story. u r loved. God bless you <3

  • why did you ever take pictures of it,

  • hey your very beautiful y cut yourself try to find someone u can relate to like me

  • Ok..she's not trying to get attention..her first video said this is not for attention..maybe she needed help to get help with her cutting issue..I never cut but my bestfriend does and that worries me..I feel like my life is nothing sometimes me n my friends get called goth and emo because of it..this video is amazing and sad and I feel your pain..my ex bf treats me like shit all the time..and my grandma has been having health problems same with my dad...I'm here for you.

  • Omygosh it is so hard to put into words my reaction to this. I have been self harming since I was in eighth or ninth grade. It started as scratches, but lately i've been cutting more and more. I am usually pretty good about not doing it because I know it kills my boyfriend and my best friend to see it, but I have severe depression, anxiety, and just various other things and sometimes I break down. I want to stop because i don't want to end up in a hospital. Could you please give me some advice?

  • all she wants is attention

  • @RealEmoKidd shut up emo

  • @RealEmoKidd really? wow... even i wouldnt be so rude. i mean this girl is putting it all out there because she wants, as she said in the description box, to show people the real effects of self harm. and your calling her an attention seeker. its kind of a sad to know that some people are that mean to other people that just want to help and make a differance.

  • @RealEmoKidd Cutters don't WANT attention idiot. This is our way of feeling like we have control over something. Not to get attention.

  • Comment removed

  • attention whore

  • @skatepro113 shut up pro

  • @iamangelsarah suck it bitch ;D

  • @RealEmoKidd i have nothing to suck bulldike

  • @skatepro113

    she's not even. you do not know anything about her.

    what the hell is wrong with you?

  • some people here don't know how hard the world is, and don't say dat I don't know how hard the world is because I DO!

  • can some 1 tell me why people cut im not trying to be mean i just whant to knoW??

  • @rascal995

    really??

    some people um, "cut themselves"

    to let their emotions out....... it makes them feel better (well, some of them)

    you shouldn't ask questions like that.....

  • Comment removed

  • it's amazing to see that you escape that painful prision, I don't know how does it really feel and I don't want to, but there's a life out there waiting for you, I'm glad you already started to enjoy the life.

  • awkward, my birthday is on the 6th of may

  • How did I get here? Lol

  • she is so pretty stop havign ago she might of had a hard life u little dicks

  • thats scars would never disappear :/

  • This is such an amazing story! Your so truthful and honest! Hope your okay now! <3

  • @ShannonMciver123 Thankyou!:D and I'm okay now :)<3

  • @selfharmadvice So many scars? Your arms are all covered.. . I'm only at 36 now.. Feels like I have nothing to complain about, compared to you.. but I just.. I can't stop.. I don't wanna stop.. It feels like the whole world is turning against me.. I can't stop anymore :'( I'm glad to know that you're okay now.. At least some of us can stop.. But when you look at your arms.. do you like.. want to do it again?.. honestly ? And does it hurt to look at your arm?..

  • @fighter5091 Hey, I felt that when I watched other self harm stories before I put this on. Like other people had more problems than me and I was selfish, but the truth is, we arn't. Whether it's cutting really deep or just scratches, self harm is the problem, and it always is a problem. And thankyou :) I still do have scars, and people have even commented on the visibility of them, how bad they are. Sometimes it hurts to look, but I've learnt to accept them now, their part of who I am :)

  • @selfharmadvice Okay.. well .. But.. do you sometimes still want to do it, honestly? I'm afraid I can't stop anymore.. the pain's so addictive.. You know what hurts the most for me at the moment?.. I can't wear like T-shirts anymore when it's summer and I can't go out swimming with my friends or anything.. Cause my arms are all covered.. Not as covered as yours though..

    I'm glad that you're doing fine now.. I just hope that you won't ever do it again.. I mean.. you are a beautiful girl!

  • @fighter5091 I will be 100% honest, I feel like since the first day I cut self harm will always be there in the back of my mind, it is right now, but I'm managing to control it and hopefully I'll be able to continue doing that, and don't worry, I've started wearing t-shirts and going swimming again, after you've dont it a few times you forget the scars are even there :) and thankyou! I think now I can control myself when I get the urge to do it, it's easier

  • @selfharmadvice Yeah.. I don't think I can ever forget about it.. I'm actually really amazed by the fact that you went swimming again.. I don't think I will ever be able to do that.. I'm just too afraid that people will stare at me.. I can't stand that..

    I'm proud of you that you managed to control yourself! Maybe one day.. I'll be able to do that too.. And if you ever feel the urge again, just remember.. there's someone out there who cares!

  • crazy man this def scared me ill never do that, thanx for putting this up <3

  • You're brave. <3

  • Such a pretty girl :) i've felt like doing it also, my grandfather passed away, then i just got so worked up over things like, i wanted to cut my self because we lost the football championships and becasue of us losing the hockey championships also, I never got to cutting myself though, knowing the harm it does, the hell you must've went through, Stick in ther, It Gets Better <3

  • omg just a nother spoiled brat cutting thim self lissan lil girl you have no clue wat pain anger and axiety is stop feeling srry for your self

  • @munnkynutts Spoilt brat? Are you being serious? I'm not spoilt atall, I'm just a normal teenage girl with a normal family. And I have no idea what pain, anger and anxiety are? Ok, that's why I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and I was councelled from May until January for it, and as for not knowing what pain and anger are, you think I wasn't in pain and angry when I had to watch my uncle die? I think I was. Oh and you spelt listen wrong.

  • Daaannnng u soo beautiful ! <3 <3 <3 Why harm yourself...... Its hurts everyone even the people u don't know D:

  • I can's stop crying... DX

  • my cousin has been through that and my best friend she still getting hospitalized and i don't know how deepression can make someone like a monster. my heart goes to all of you <3

  • With the help of my fiance i stopped. its been 2 years and the scars have faded to where you barely notice them. :]now i just gotta stop doing drugs :/

  • My friend has the same problem, :L

  • oh my gosh.. :'( your story.. it must've been so horrible! i remember when i did it... i still have the scars.. dont worry your not alone! everyone has someone! i noticed you have a blackberry too.. <£xxxx

  • I love your eyes at 4:20

    

  • I love your blue eyes, there so pretty :)

  • I LOVE YOURE EYEBROWS.

  • what did u use???

  • I used to self harm. I stopped over 2 years ago and it hasn't even crossed my mind. It's amazing what having people to suport you can do but, it's upto the harmer themselves to decide when they want to get rid of that burden.

    I always saw self-harming as a demon I let stay in my brain- one day I decided to charge it rent and it left- good ridence to that waste of time :)

    Stay strong and one day, you'll think..... wow! look how far I've come

  • dont do that, play FIFA ur goina be shit wen u start and wen u lose its a great way 2 let ur anger out by smashin ur controller

  • I still cut, more then usual my friends dont know. My family doesnt either, i go to counseling behind there back and i wear jackets every day.. I had a bf, i loved him so much and now i dont stop he cuts it feels like the pain is addicting. So i tried to stop but i couldnt, so in a way your story is like mine... Except mine is Unknown only the ppl on here know >.<

  • i had the same problem but overcame it and am now living life to the full

  • oke, but why would you make pictures of it since you were 14? (':

  • ):i have gone though ALL of that, i started at the age of 13, then got into alcohol. and with drinking and cutting it got worse. then at 14 i was doing hard core drugs, and still cutting. it was difficult for me. and my family didnt care. and i didnt really have any friends bcuz i let them all go when i started my drugs. so i was all alone, and had no one to help me. then at the age of 15 i overdosed and cut really bad. but now i have stopped all that.and i wish we had these vidoes before i cut

  • well i have to say something i am 13 and my papa died dec 19th 2010 and he was my life i loved that man and i started cutting my self and i have almost died form oded and cutting i still cut my self everyday now and i am Home-schooled and people have always picked on me so i have kinda been cutting myself since i was i think 9-10 but i am better it is so hard to stop i used to take and cut myself deep i cut a vain one time had to go to the hospital....

  • I have problems, I ve thought about cutting myself.

    I was in the shower one day, just casually shaving my legs and my shaver slips and I get a big cut just above my knee. It hurt so bad. For me, cutting myself is an even more painful emotion than everyday problems.

    If you are in pain, don't you want the pain to GO away?

  • why are you all being dicks people cut there self because of people llike you all they need is a friend to get them through it iv help 15 people through stuff like this an im really good friends with them now. maybe if you opened your eyes you would see that all they need is a friend. i cried watching this. an im glad youve stoped no one deserves to die

  • if anyone watches this video and has the same problem message me i am someone to talk to i will know what you are going through if i dont reply i am sorry and if you have suicide thoughts call this number 4027174673 and just remember their are people who care :)

  • You have issues.. Thats pathetic and sick.

  • i cant stop :****(

  • WTF how fucking how do u cut your self that fucking much how

  • @Hollywoodhorrified Thankyou!:D

  • @HellokittyCupcak3 Wow Thankyou so much:) xx

  • @DenistyOfficial Thank-you so much!<3

  • @xxPurpleTurtle Thankyou, noone is alone :)<3

  • @taytay112123 Thankyou :) x

  • @TheAkiina Some people have noticed it:')<3

  • WAS I THE ONLY ONE THAT NOTISED THE JEDWARD POSTER!? <3

  • 2:21 I had the EXACT same comforter awhile back!!

  • -Okay this is gonna sound weird.But you look really damn familar.

  • @meganisawsom1 i know right

  • wow, this is so deep and personal, ( I did the same), You just made me think about what i did... and why i did it. honestly thank you.

  • i love you for sharing your story with us. you have a lot of guts to do so. i have never harmed myself but i've had depression problems before. now im a super happy person because ive found a way to see good from bad situations. i hope you are better and i just wanted to say also that you are beautiful.

  • Thanks for you to share your story. I feel sad because of you, and i hope that now your life is better, and you don't cut yourself anymore.

    Your story reminds me about mine, i've been cutting myself over three years, but i haven't went too far with it.

    But your vid gave me hope. So i try to stop cutting now. Thanks you!

    And btw, you're very pretty <3.

  • just wanted to say great video and thank you for sharing your story ... and also your very pretty

  • I've self harmed for 4 years, I also developed social anxiety.. you're not alone <3

  • Amazing vid cutting your self is ot a crazy thing to do it dunt meen your insane when you cry its because tour upset or depressed when it gets too much you cut it feels like it helps but in the end its not worth it

  • I only cut my self once there is only one scar one my arm i was emo for about an hour then to my normal self it was weird really weird.

  • It takes a lot of courage to come out and tell people about your self harm story. Thank you for sharing this with us. Maybe it'll help people to realize that it's not all just attention seeking and that it is, in a way, an addiction. A terrible one. I'm really proud of you and the fact that you've realized it's just not worth it. :) I hope your life is going good still! xxx

  • it just proves that its not just ugly depressed emo kids like the sterotype this girl a very pretty girl that has obvioulsly gone though shit to result to cutting i did i for a while but im glad i stopped well done it takes corage to admite to this stuff :) xxxxx good luck

  • Doesn't solve anything. Just attention seeking.

  • @saraaaANDclaudia Have you ever been through self harming? Obviously not, because if you had you'd know it isn't attention seeking. While I was cutting I was ashamed to show my cuts, nevermind attention seek with them. I didn't put this video on to attention seek, I put it on to share my story, and to show others who stuggle with self harm they arn't alone, and the consequences self harm comes with. And well if you;d ever been through self harm, you'd know that self harm

  • @saraaaANDclaudia does temporarily solve the problem for the person who is cutting, which leads to more cutting, your comment is extremely insensitive and small minded.

  • @saraaaANDclaudia attention seeking?! wtf, shut the fuck up!! You have no understanding.

  • i also self harm but i don't understand why you are showing people on youtube ..... its the sort of thing you keep to yourself and tell no one about. xxx

  • @Alittlebitofstuff It helps other people know that they arent the only ones that do or have cut themselves! show a little respect!

  • @xTraYummyBananaz yes but i don't really want to see pictures of it thats all i'm saying xx

  • @Alittlebitofstuff well, there's 2 precautions before you watch this video. 1) I set my arm as the thumbnail and 2) There's a trigger warning in the title, you knew there would be pictures of my self harm in this and you chose to go ahead and watch it, that isn't my fault.

  • @Alittlebitofstuff I'm showing it because I want to show people that self harm is the wrong road to go down. And well I didn't want to keep it to myself, I wanted to share it because I went through a hell of alot which has taught me so much and now I'm using that to help other people.

  • no offence, but i really wouldnt like to see people cut them selves, showing pics of their cuts, it makes me feel gross, and now ur thinking, why the hell did u come on this vid then. the answer is, i wanted to see other peoples storys and try to see what they r going threw. :)

  • I dont know you but seeing what youve been through really makes me want to help people that have been through the same as you ,i have felt scuicidal before and its something that stress does to you,on the 3rd of january this year my uncle also died of agressive pancrease and stomach cancer, i understand how you felt and your video showed me that cutting is not always the result <3

  • <333 xxx

  • this made me cry

  • i cut to...

  • didnt it hurt when you did it ?

  • @cryxoutxforxhelp just talk to your parents about it, or someone you trust. there is no reason to harm yourself. you are worth as much as everyone else in the world.

  • I JUST MASTURBATED TO THIS VIDEO.

  • @bwzebraslol Yeah, it's the addiction side. Mine got out of control and before I knew it I couldn't get through a day without self harming, hence me cutting 20 times a day

  • @Filmer1eX I'll bear that in mind :')

  • @Filmer1eX I'll bear that in mind :')

  • @Filmer1eX I'll bear that in mind :')

  • Next time just start smoking weed, lol

  • My first cuts where really just scratches too. But I just cut my wrist. But really? Cutting your self 20 times a day? i only do20 a month.

  • With wich you cut your veins?

  • Comment removed

  • COOL STORY BROSKI

  • hey, if i cut a vein what can i do besides go to the hospital.. :P

  • @JerkinTight You'd have to, if you hit an arterie (or vein) you'd bleed to death, and its bad, luckily I don't cut that deep

  • @bwzebraslol ok thanks

  • I cut myself this year in 7th grade. I was addicted. Sometimes I still get the urge to do it again. It started with me best friend cutting, I thought that I was stressed and depressed but i wasn't until i had to hide the cuts from my family. It was horrible. . The second time my family caught me because my sister saw caught me. Me and the girl who would cut together eventually did blood sisters and then we promised to stop... she never stopped but I did. We arn't friends anymore it's hard.

  • @taabbyy1

    Look, people who self harm don't do it for no reason. I've been there. You don't live her life. You don't know everything about her, so how can you judge? It's an addiction.

  • ...I want to cut for stupid reasons. :) I dunno if it's normal or not.. (Fail math test. Scrape arm. Scrape arm.)

  • Thanks for the inspiring video about your story, i have my own but too scared to tell,, :$ but good luck in the future :)

  • your*

  • That's good that you stop. I can relate to your story except I'm still addicted for more then a year. I went months with out cutting but now I'm am again.

  • i cut myself yes, no im not addicted thought

  • i cut myself, alot tbh.

  • Tbh your amazing looking, and what youve changed is aamzing <3

  • Do you still have all scars? I still have mine

  • @taabbyy1 Oh right, haha ok. And scrapes over rich little drama queen? One, I'm far from rich, two, drama queen? My uncle was dying from brain cancer, and I had an anxiety disorder. And three, scrapes? I have the scars to prove my cuts wern't just scrapes, thanks. And I know people have it worse, and I respect that, and they deal with their problems with better ways than self harm, but unfortunately that wasn't the case for me. And well thanks for your opinion, but it was unwanted. So yeah, bye.

  • @selfharmadvice like me and i try to find som,ething else so i dont cut myself to escape. but i still think its something you should kind of kep to yourself

  • somtimes i felt like cutting myself but watching this changed my mind compeatly

  • @55natty555 That's nice to hear thankyou! :D

  • @taabbyy1 can't you take the hint? your first comment recieved too many negative votes and your comments really arn't wanted here, and you spelt it wrong the second time round too, it's business.

  • dumb bitch. oh, and born of osiris is better than you.

  • @Branski81 fuck off your not wanted here and nobody is better that anyone we are all the same so GTF.

  • damn, you're so pretty :(<3

  • @KikiXcupcake Thankyou <3

  • @selfharmadvice you're welcome :3

  • @taabbyy1 You sound like your bragging about being 100lbs, and your calling me an attention seeker? And before you say "you don't know what it's like" yes I do, because I've been 100lbs. And maybe they didn't post it on youtube because they wanted to keep it private, fair play to them, but I'm not them, I want to help people. So peace, go troll on someone elses video.

  • You're a gorgeous girl. I'm sorry that all of this happened to you. I used to cut, but I stopped because I didn't think it was worth it anymore. Hurting the people around you isn't worth it.

  • I am 14. My best friend died because of suicide. I have been cutting myself. Hurting, and having suicidal thoughts, I have also tried to kill myself... I saw this, and I wanted it to help me... it's just really hard right now.. I just wish I could die. TO be with him. to love him. TO hold him... help me

  • YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ! I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WOULD DO THAT. tbh, i cut myself a few weeks ago for the first time. it felt good but i have scars from it. i feel that im going to feel the pain again and start cutting

  • Seek Jesus to help you release your problems, not self injury. I used to cut, but Jesus helped me through. :)

  • i have been through the same thing i try not to but i still do for about almost two years now i try to stop but its hard i eat though thats one thing but thats why i cut see i get bullyed because of my weight so i cry then cut then try not to eat for a couple of day i can go with out eating but then i have to and then i cut idk how i cant stop this cycle its so stressful and now i know its stupid of me but i have to

  • @taabbyy1 You must be really low, if she was trying to get attention she would be saying "help me" but no she is trying to save tohers you are no more than a mean person, but I will not say anything more because unlike you, I am not a bully

  • eyeroll ahahahahahah

  • @taabbyy1 what a bitch yes im talking to you!

  • what do you do if you cat a vein?

    what would i do to stop the bleeding?

  • Your a really strong person!!! I'm happy that you've stopped, I hope I can stop soon!!!

  • If you have

    Such a fucking problem with people

    Who self harm that why did you watch the video

  • First world problems. Spoiled fucking kids think their lives are so bad they need to cut themselves. Grow the fuck up, or go deeper next time. Why not just do what you really intended to do and stand on a corner and scream look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me! look at me!

  • I just cried. Your just like me. And you people saying shes going this for attention are wrong, it's an addiction and she couldn't help it. Just like me...

  • i hope your okay and i pray that your uncle is happy

    i've only cut myself a few times and have anxiety disorders so i can relate to how you felt, hope you never feel like that again

  • @taabbyy1 Wtf.

  • PEOPLE CARE

  • i used to cut myself a month ago, bcoz my friends used to tease me saying fatty and stuff, if i got angry abt someone not picking up a call for long i would cut, but then my mum and dad and neighbz got to know, i didnt wanna stop but eventually i thot that cutting would make no difference so i gave it up, i still have the scars now...

  • my best friend used to do it but she would carv words like "sorry" or like "forgive me" i thought thats was weird

  • I know what it is like to be in your place. It sucks. But Im glad you were determinted to stop. You are worth more than you think to someone and killing your self just makes some else in your place.

  • if emos didnt label themselves people would not make fun of them and cause them to self-harm... duh damn

  • @DuplicatingKoalaBear Some people who self harm don't label themselves as emos but people as school or at home will eventually see your wearing sleeves all the time, see a glimpse when you put up your hand and there it is. Automatically other people label you as an emo and sometimes bully you. Also emo doesn't mean cutting yourself it means emotionally unstable.
