  • i also struggle with self harm its hard to give up and nothing else helps as well as self harm does

  • After hearing this song... it makes me feel so sad... I've been self harming for 5 years and everytime I look at the scars on my arms it reminds me of the sadness and hurt I've been through. But one day I hope.... I will stop. God Bless xxx

  • Cant take this shit,... Im out.

  • I don't do self harm...

    but I never go through a day where I wish I had the guts to...

    There are only 3 things in my life that stop me from doing so...

    My friends, the love of my life, and God.

  • love this song,

  • Im 19 and i too struggle with self harm and sometimes it feels like no one one is listening and the other people that understand are the people who need help too so what can we do HELP!!!!

  • @CLUBMADCHRISTIAN i have stuggled for over20 years. doctors make it worse.i wish i had the answer for you but i dont.no one does.you have to find what makes you be able to cope.take it day to day.im covered with scars from years of this.i dont wish that for anybody.find someone you can trust and talk to them

  • I love this video. You did a really good job and thnx I hope God continues to bless you. x]

  • god help me through this

  • this makes me cry

  • If There is anyone who is looking to throw out a cry for help, feel free to direct it my way. I have been there and back, and find my joy almost solely in helping others through the situations that I myself have been through. I am here, even if no one else is. I may be a stranger, but the stranger reaching out can mean more than anything to some people.

  • You're right...strangers can help. I guess thats one of the things I really want. I want someone, even a stranger, to simply notice. Damn, I wish for that so bad...but no one ever does. I feel like I"m fake, like I really don't exist...

  • i cut for 2 years. ive recoverd. if anyone needs help..im here.

  • Is this a good enough reason to cut: if your dad get extremely mad

    At you for doing something nice And then telling your mom about it well trying to tell your mom and if you get made fun of by alot of people at school? Plz reply

  • theres no reason ever to cut. trust me

  • theres no single reason to cut, if it happens, it is usually done through subconscious impulses. many people who cut are so far removed and dissociated from their inner selves that many times, they've no idea WHY they did it in the first place. it is completely intuitive, and for somebody emotionally ruined, any 'reason' will do, like simply getting told 'no' by your mom when you want something. no reason is a good reason to cut, yet we still find reasons every time to do so. trust me, i know

  • I understand exactly what you mean...I make up excuses after I've done it just so people, in case they ever noticed, would see that I'm okay. But I don't really know why I do it anymore. I don't think, and then before I know it, the deed is done. If I couldn't see the blood on my arm though, I don't think I'd ever know that I did do it. It would simply seem like a dream.

  • @dyinglonely i feel like that too, when i cut i dont realize really what im doing untill after when i see the blood and cut the next day. its like in drunk, i dont even know that it happened untill i see the scares

  • @musicgirl300 It's an addiction. Not easily let go. I'm not proud to say it, but I've been addicted to this game since I was about four five or six. I don't remember very well. But, yes, that's a very good discription...drunk...drunk of the pain.

  • @success4revenge i know exactly what you mean. my best friend has asked me many times why i started...and i honestly don't have an answer for her, because i'm not sure why i started, or why i continued. i still find stupid reasons to cut...like my parents are mad at each other, so i cut. my mom tells me to clean my room, i cut. i wish i could stop.

  • Ive cut myself so many times its not funny im doing it 4 or 5 times a day yesterday i sat in the docters and stole 3 sugical blades to cut my self with and last night it went to far and i nearly cut my vain ( dont know how to spell ) :( Lifes shit.

  • The problem with cutting...when you've been placed in so much real pain that you feel like your drowning and you can't out...you turn to it again if you've ever done it before...after five months I'm back to a blade...the sad thing is...I'm only 16 years old and I've experienced more than most people would in their lives. If someone can...please talk to me and help me out of this...

  • i cut for 2 years. i keep wanting to go back. but its an erdge you gotta beat. you just have to change your thinking habits.

  • That's one of my problems though. I can't fight it anymore. The guy I thought I loved used me, my family is going to hell, my past haunts me, and no guy wants me because I am dirty. I'm alone and I don't know what else to do. Before I know it, whenever I'm depressed, I don't even realize that I've done it until I look down at my arm and see, see exactly what I've done. But the really sad thing is, I can't feel the pain at all. I don't feel my arm nor the cuts on it. I don't feel anything anymore

  • I still cut I'm getting help though by my best friend but I do not suggest anyone cuts ever

  • If I smile enuff am I ok? If I stay alone then nobody will see anything but a smile.....

  • im a recovering cutter i havent cut in 6 months and it is so hard its a bad habit ...some ppl get tattoo happy cant get enough ink ....some smoke get pissy when they dont have it the urge is so strong .....well cutting is the same way i used to cut to release emotional pain that made me numb it is posable to stop cutting not easy but im doin it so can you .... good luck to you all ((LOVES))

  • @darknessdawn78 good :) i'm glad you were able to stop

  • I've been attempting self harm since last year, but not until recently have I ever actually broken skin. The majority of my friends self harm, but we're all supporting eachother and moving towards a better future the best we can. If anyone see's this comment and decideds they want help they can send a message to my inbox. " there was no reason for her to turn inside herself and self destruct." - Looking for Alaska

  • plz..if you need to talk...im here. ive been down a sick road..its not fun. plz do everything you can to keep yourself safe

  • I been cutting myself since 12 years old, and now im turning 20

  • This song was about Ben Moody and she Amy lee didn't want anyone to hear it.

    And No, Amy Lee doesn't self harm and i don't think she ever did..

    I self harm though.. or i did like 2 weeks ago, and now i'm scared that i'm gonna lose control and end up doing it again.

  • Theres actually soo many ppl in my year tht self harm...im one of them....nd i ued to scare myself cause i cudnt stop but not anymore...it helps me so i dnt see why i shud try nd resist..

  • i've been trying to cut myself since a few months ago but my sister always stops me

    i'm only doing it if i feel worthless or not worthy to live on the planet when i've been yelled at by someone(mostly my mum and sister) if i've dine something i can't help

    has it ever happened to you?

  • Im Crying Out For Help, But No One Hears My Silent Screams.

  • i no exactly how u feel

  • I know how you feel too. But we learn to deal. <3.

  • @CheekyMonkeyMoon I love your way of describing it. very poetic. I find poetry is one way I use to deal with my self harm sometimes.

  • did amy lee self harm? or DOES amy self harm??? cause she makes such beautiful music that has to do with it and the lyrics ar also beautiful...

  • I have my moments, i was worst when i was younger, but good friends make things bearable. i love this song. stay strong

  • I know how everyone feels :( The teachers at my school found out today GRRR and they say I have to have stupid councelling.. but i HATE councellors, seriously they're pathetic =[ No one else understands what it's like

  • You'd be surprised. I never realised till year 11 how many others there were in my year group alone

  • shit ur lucky when they saw my arm in high school they send for some therapist and the bitch got me hospitalize anyway counselling does help some so they say but from what i been thru it does not it really does not they just ask a question and make u talk then ask another and u do all the talkin they dont help much many feel like i do and one person just one told me it help them lucky one try it u might be another lucky one good luck

  • I was hospitalized for cutting aswell. Streamwood actually. But for me, talking to people does help. Not really a therapist but someone im close too. Sorry that it doesnt help you.

  • @Lydiixx you're right they don't when people in my school found out I seriously wanted to kill them all and kill myself after that. they are useless they're only telling you how life is so worth living and how happy the world out there actually is, wich make you feel even more sucky

  • i feel the need to cut. i like this video, but right now, i'm itching for my blade. my mom has it, though. she doesn't know i have another...

  • DONT do it!

  • i know i'm crazy but

    i've been trying to cut since a few months ago but my sister always stops me

    and i hate it

  • i went through a stage of self harm still do sometimes... i think everyone else knows what it is like to hate themselves

  • thanks for sharing this video...

    I too, self harm, trying to recover,

    successful at times, but I always

    come back to it....

  • 2:51 That's Marilyn Mansons arms, aren't they? Haha they are his tattoos. (: Lol

    I love this video, the song is beautiful, I am totallyt in love with it now, I wasnt so big on it before... Thank you...

  • I know how you feel i used to do it too. I cut my tindon in my wrist almost in half one time..

  • i am struggling with selfharm too i'm 16 and i can't stop. It's like i crave to drag my blade across my skin. It's my way to deal with life... it might sound stupid but i'm sure at least one person out there understands wtf i'm saying

  • i struggle with self harm harm aswell i'm 15 it's just how i deal with life i'm addictedto sef harm.

  • Yeah, Im sure A LOT of people know how you feel, and totally get what youre saying, though people, might not want to admit, a lot of people self harm, but some people take it too far. We just ened help I guess, a friend to talk to and some one.  My friends are no good, I hope people who self harm get help. (:

  • you don't sound stupid... i know exactly how you feel

  • @MsJessie93 i understand. its addictive.it used to seem strange, but now its so normal.

  • its not for attention... cause thats why most try to keep it hidden.

  • well i dont agree it was about herself. shes hinted at it being about Ben. but this a beautiful song in whatever way you take it

  • Wait...who is ben again?

  • ex guitarist.

  • oh...got it...sorry...

  • Its certainly not a way for attention, but should be seen to others as your friends plea for help

  • Thanks i needed to hear that. I am battling with belf harm and a eating disorder. And anyone that has the same problems understand me wwhe I say that it is an addiction and it is so hard to stop. I am going to treatment in teh next couple weeks. If you are self harming seek help please. The little cuts will only get deeper. And you weight will continue to drop and while you think it is good it isnt. I still look at myself as fat but we have to overcome this so plese seek help

  • hay, im sorry to hear taht u r suffering with selfharm and eating disorder. what do u do? eat a lot and out of control and then throw up and take laxatives? thats what i do.

  • actually, self harm isn't deliberate cutting. Cutting is a method of self harm, there are lots of other methods. It's only limited to creativity. It's a coping method, but doesn't work particularly well in the long run, especially with parents. good luck to anyone that has self harmed and is trying to stop.

  • I agree completely with walkindisaster96. there are many means of self harm/self destruction. eating disorders, burning, scratching, deliberately destroying life's chances (jobs, school, etc), drugs, etc. Cutting is one of the most widely known, but it is definitely not the only one.

    As for the video- great, amazing job :)

  • What's the pic from .54 from?

  • My sistermoved away when I went to the lake. When i came home my sister had given me a letter saying that she sorry for evertything and she doent want me cutting and it changhed me havent cut since xD

  • I self harm as a coping method ,

    not for attention !

    It only helps me survie in my situation so nobody should be judged for it . It's their life and they can do what they want with it .

    I deserve to be with the angels not here slashing myself. :/

  • This is so sad I hope Allah takes all the pain away from us.......

  • Hey, does anyone know where the image at 1:09 can be found?

  • yeah this is a big trigger

  • at 11 ish dat is awesome id love do someit lkike that i only manage 1nce or twice

  • you are worth so much more than that <3

  • wow. brilliant video. it is very sad, but very familiar. amy lee is sooo beautiful!

  • its sad really in a familiar way

  • i think it was her sister

  • This is the song I always listen to,when I cut myself. A Masterpiece!

  • Here I am trying to aid the healing process for former cutters or the self injured and you listen to this while hurting yourself?! Please...cutting gets you NOWHERE. at the end...don't you see how she's not giving in anymore...and she's gonna soar to be who she deserves to be and not let anything hold her back? It should be inspirational...not depressing, sweetie <3.

  • for some of us though its better than the alternative. i appreciate your efforts and the video is phenomenal. and if you've beat the battle, good for you. for some of is, its that or death.

  • i really like this video.. fits well with the song.. amy lee is f*cking gorgeous! great vid x

  • Help i wanan die =[

  • i think...

  • this song is about another peson like an abusive parent or boyfriend not hersalf

  • there are diffrent reliogens and u shouldnt tell who to and who not to woriship. She has the right of free religon as do u and i

  • Comment removed

  • ok this is different from self harm, before i watch the video.

    1) Cutting is suicide, not self harm. There's very little difference, but cutting on WRISTS and forearm is attempting suicide, calves and things cant kill u.

    2) Amy lee is NOT singing about herself, she's singing about her previous abusive relationship which is believed to be with ben moody, former guitarist. I don't blame u for thinkin that, u hav to be a REAL big fan to know that.

  • You are soo right...Amy said that she went through an abusive time with Ben Moody on an interview on a magazine, I would have cried if anything would happen Amy, she is my idol and always was since i was 2 and always will be until i die

  • cutting is not suicide dumbass. self harm is purposely cutting your skin. doesnt matter where the fuck it is. it could be on your eye and it'd still be considered self harm. you're a dumbshit.

  • it depends. cutting for the purpose of wantin to end ur life, is suicide.

    Cutting ecause u hate urself, u think ur too ugly, etc etc is considered more toward self harm.

    doesn't really matter. neither things are good.

    I now feel somewhat uncomfortable commenting on his, or having ever.

  • I suffered for years and years. I not only cut myself and had to go to bellin several times, but i had gone through depression and refused to eat for 2 months. I drank sips of water once in a while and i was an inch away from death. I am still dealing with cutting and depression and if anyone else is going through something like this, i would love to talk to you.

  • She meant medication for her depression with Lithium in it...Hence the song Lithium. Delete this BS

  • My name is wynter and i was abused for 5 years by my stepdad.i am a cutter and i am suicidle....i am only 15 going on 16 in about 4 months..i am engaged to a wonderful guy but i am stuck in a box of self loathing.he sees my cuts and hears me cry....i dont want to do this anymore..but i cant stop...its my addiction...i need help but nothing works..please...can any one out there help me?

  • I was once in your position... but don't worry because there is always hope and you will be surprised how strong you can be when you need it most... If you want some help please feel free to message me because I don't want you to feel so bad about yourself....

  • crying for help is good. ur not in denial. I never was abused but when i was depressed, i thought it was easier to type things out. Use msn to talk to someone directly. If you hav no one to talk to call 1-800-suicide. u can talk to someone their and/or go to the nearest hospital and they will put u in a rehab, but those are a bit more extreme. Trust me on this, u may think u are, but no, ur not alone.

  • amen

  • It sometimes helps to know that someone else went through it, and recovered.

  • I suffer for like 4 years, once i stopped and my scars went to fade away.

    Though last months i feel like i want to die.. I am so confused and don't know how i can express it. So i went cutting again </3

    I would love to talk to some people who suffer too, i wish you all the best!

    Peace<33

  • Yes the urge comes back again. That's normal. I wasn't a hardcore cutter, infact i only did it twice, but i used to think about it all the time.

    Punching a pillow really hard works for me instead now :P. It's all about release. Don't let harming yourself be that channel out.

  • I feel so weak for not being able to stop..I just can't..and even if I'd stop, I'd be scarred for life anyways..

  • i just hate that all these women are pretty or beautiful. Maybe there are extenuating circumstances but part of the reason i cut is because i'm so fucking ugly. Maybe they were molested or beaten something...

  • I'm sure you're not ugly or anything :). You sound beautiful to me ^^.

  • Seems really good, but you need to put that it could trigger, something simplistic like WARNING MAY CONTAIN TRIGGER!

    That way those who suffer from self injury can watch this in a safe enviroment.

  • if anyone who self harms...i can help..i self harmed for over 2 years, over 9000 cuts and 5 suicide attempts..i cant help who ever needs it..i really can. plz come to me if you need help..i am here

  • Really??

  • my frend who i love . . needs your help i did it too but i stopped i started getting better confidence =(

    but she thinks everyone hatews her

  • how can u help me?

  • what the heck how?...

  • guys...

    There is always somebody. For you. Waiting.

  • Did you recover from self harm?

  • :(( xx :(( xx

    look up my vids: Katie's first movie, Learn to fight with Harry the power ranger.

    (I think theres more lol buhh I cant remember them!

    :D

  • i cant stop self harming, i think about it all the time.

    all because of one boy and i dont know what to do anymore :'( (U) i hate myself.

  • i wish i could stop cutting. i slowed down a lot but i still want to all the time. its on my mind a lot, and i break some times. i just want it to be out of my life, but at the same time i don't.

  • i now exactly how u feel, i hate what ido,but i love it too,

  • i know, its sad. ]:

  • i hate my self for cutting im 12, i really want to stop, it makes me worse if i tri, my friend keeps telling me to stop i say to them i cant its like smoking and they say no its not but they dont understand :( im emo but thats got nothing to do with me cutting emo is just a style and music and every one says no its not

  • You are very right. I am a cutter, and I am a goth!!! But I dont cut because I am a goth. Thruth is that it is easier to say you are emo or whatever than to care for you!!!!

  • wow if my friend like punches me it hurts like shit, but if i stab the shit out of my arm, it hurts-3 seconds and goes away(random)

  • 4years.

    .

    can i be normal again

    It feels brain dead from this.

    I want the old me bk

    but i fear thats never going to happern.

  • GOD IS A CUNT!!!

  • si is like cancer there is no true cure and it spreads

  • im a 15 year old girl who suffers day to day with bipolar type 2...im an addict to cutting i was raped at 13 and never got over it im working on it ive been hospitalized 6 times.

  • You are the light of the world!!!!! I feel for you...

    You are worthy

  • im the same way. im 15, been cutting for four years. molested twice. but ive only been hospitalized twice. if you ever need anybody to talk to. im here. i know im just some random person, but ill help best i can.

  • my friends do it to.Of course ur going to worry but be strong for their sake and let them know ur there to talk or even if they just need a hug. x

  • my freind is exactly like this..she cuts her arm and i have talked to her about it but she still continues..i dont know what to do anymore. :-(

  • Cutting becomes an addiction. This is her only coping method right now. Just be there for her. Tell her that if she ever needs anything that you are there to call, be open with her. But, don't scorn her for what she is doing, she probably hates herself for doing it anyway, or subconsiously she does.

  • u have internet rgncf ur better off than most people in the world learn to suck it up

    when u get beat down take it like a man like me, let it make u stronger

  • You still have a chance :). Everyday in a new day. Own it!!

  • i love this video

    im not pretty and not skinny an get teased a lot about it i have dreams about becoming a singer and no one will actually take the time to listen then judge they look at me and say wow U want to become a singer u dont stand a chance my fam does it too no body believes in me and the pain is unbearable....the sad part is my sis, my two grandmas were the only ones who did believe but they all died.... :(

  • I believe in you :).

  • thxs so much u dont kno how happy dat makes me....

  • i believe in you.

  • I also believe in you

  • We all believe in you,

    I believe in everybody here.

    <33 ... :'(

  • I believe in you and keep trying no matter what they say and when they tell you that your not good a nough just use it as a motto

  • I believe in you,

    and I thinkn you can do anything you wish to do^.^

  • this song talks bout all our fellings.. and i know that we all r in the same pain..love this song.. hate my pain.. love my blood.. just like a game of love hating love...

  • i think this is the best video to go with this song.....ppl may think this is just stupid...but this song is deep and ment for a deep video.

  • wow! this is rly deep

  • mooo come sei EMO fai skifo =_=' ( for traduction this is italian)

  • cutting releases endorphines..

    endorphines relieve pain...

    thats why people cut...

  • Thats so true. But you know exercise does the same thing. I just do that instead and feels great. Endorphines elevate your mood.

  • yeah i have tried that and when i do, its like everytime i try to i just dont have the will to do it. The last time i guess i picked the wrong time to do it cus everyone i saw was holding hands and spending time with their partners.... i have always been told being depressed is a part of life but i dont think the crap i deal with is jus a regular part of life :(

  • It'll get better sweetie when the time is right :). Just hang in there. <3.

  • I am 19 and a gay guy. I am so sick of being alone, to the point it hurts, right now i am having the biggest urge and i jus wanna make up for all the monthes that i havent SI'd. I seriously want to live but do not know what to do except for that, it jus keeps on coming into my head. The music is really beautiful thanks for putting it on there

  • Aww I'm sorry. Well we're all in this together. You're not alone :).

  • I am really sorry to hear how your feling. I o what its like to feel alone like no one else knows what your going through. If your trying not to self injure try and stick with it but if u slip up dont beat yourself up over it. I didnt cut myself for 115 days and it was one of the hardest things for me not to cut. I have since, but im gonna keep trying.

  • That's the will that'll make you stronger and withstand anything :). Good work taking care of yourself!

  • thanks, i feel better that at least someone knows, i feel so lost, and like i would wonder the mall like searching for someone with scars, its sad reallly and the guilt was there when i did it again but i am four days going without it so YAY :)

  • ur not the only one

  • its how i feel inside x

  • 1 started self harming ad i told myself i could stop when i wanted but i have done t for 2 years and its aditve so if you just started please stop before it gets harder

  • I started cutting when I was 10 or 11.

    Soon, I got addicted. It was bad.

  • beautiful song, beautiful vid

  • thoose pictures are me.

    i hate it :(

  • i was bullied in school so badly...i started cutting at 14 and drinking to much at 15...I'm 20 now and while all the other girls were off getting boyfriends and havin babies ive been travelling, working abroad and loving life...and i plan to travel and stay care free for as long as i want...i came off best in the end...im still quite a heavy drinker and have cut but i think its something thats there for life..keep ur chins up people ur better than this xxx

  • i know perfectly how you can do this to urself i hav for nearly 3 yrs now im only 13 and every time i gat close to someone they die ny bf commited suicide and now i hate myself for it i feel its my folt maby i should never fall in love maby i should just feel like this im alone and scared it's taken over my life and anti depressants dont work no matter how hard i try to be happy it never works.

  • *hugs*

    If you ever need to talk, I'll listen

  • i just dont understand how people can do that to themselves i mean i hate myself and am on all kinds of anti depressants and i think about dying everyday but more pain doesnt help me

  • For me, the physical pain distracts from the emotional pain

  • and then she told me she was mad at me for telling her i would be there for her. then she sent me a text that said just to let you know im breaking up with you. and the next day she was going out with my best friend. and it started again. i cant find what i did wrong but its killing me inside. i cant stop

  • Girl, you got to understand that there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with that girl. You don't have any part in it AT ALL. And don't let some twit make you feel bad about yourself! And especially...never ever let some unworthy girl or person be the cause of the scars on your skin. Just hang in there, the feelings will subside soon enough, but give your heart some time to heal and lay it off for a while. I'm sure you'll feel better on your own in no time :). Feel free if you want to talk to me.

  • omg mady i honestly feel so sorry for you right and left theres comments i cant stop cutting and shit wow lol its not that hard but yet again when ur young everything hurts a million times harder i guess having a horrible verbaly abusive husband makes me not take everything for granted

  • you should find a hott ass girl and show her off. then push that chick on her ass for doing that too you. people are mean because they feel so awful inside they need to cause pain on others. that girl is a total bitch and a monster. dont waste ur breathe on her. its hard and it will always be hard nothing will every go away completely but youll learn to cope i promise you hey its my fault my bestie started to cut herself but i deal i see the better side of things now :)

  • i started when i was treated like shit by this one girl. she made feel like i didnt mean anything to her. then she just left. then i was picked up by someone. it was this girl who im not gonna name. she was amazing she made me feel like i could do anything. i stoped for her. then the last two weeks we hung out she ignored me and acted like i wasnt even there.
