Self Injury Awareness

[flower5890]

@EmilyMayLYVA you GO girl!! Tell her off! Because obviously SHE'S never had emotional probs. Pffft, does SHE have a whole day dedicated to her? I DON'T THINK SO hahahahahahhah PATHETIC

[jkseiden]

@jkseiden saying goodbye next year is going to be the hardest thing I've ever done. She is more of a mother to me than my mom ever was.

[jkseiden]

My mother looked at me like I was a freak when I came out to her. My music/chorus teacher always said I looked sad. One day she pulled me aside after class. The concern in her eyes and the sincerity in her voice led me to believe I could trust her so I came out. I expected her to look at me weird but instead she gave me a hug and told me I could come to her to talk anytime. She didn't tell anyone. Not even other adults. I have taken her up on her offer more than once and she really truly cares.

[zentar550]

Self injury is funny. Keep hurting yourselves I need a good laugh because sometimes I have a crappy day and rather than cut myself (because mental and emotional pain + physical pain = relief? Logic dwells here) I'll just watch others do it.

Keep on cutting I love people in pain.

[ebbnmaggs]

@zentar550 what a lovely person x would love to meet you,

to kick you in the balls, floor you and stamp on you chest until i hear thing break xxxxx

[EmilyMayLYVA]

@zentar550 oh grow up! you pathetic excuse of a human being!

[zentar550]

@EmilyMayLYVA HAhahaha I'm not pathetic cutting yourself to relieve pain is pathetic hahahahahahhaa

[EmilyMayLYVA]

@zentar550 self harm is a way of coping with things, it can become an additcion. just like drugs and alcohol. we all have different paths we pick, some just more serious than others. but anyway, as i was saying, YOU are pathetic. 

[zentar550]

@EmilyMayLYVA Let's cope with pain by adding pain.

Bleed out and die shitbags!

[EmilyMayLYVA]

@zentar550 pffft.

[ThatMan0verThere]

@zentar550

[zentar550]

@ThatMan0verThere hahahaahahaha why you cutters are so funny emotional pussies

[ThatMan0verThere]

@zentar550

Yes, haha, go back to /b/ now.

[MrBonghits666]

@zentar550 Hey I am a 230 lb man. I have battled with self harm issues. And I guarantee you, I am no pussy. Why don't you come to Long Beach, CA. I live at the intersection of 15th and stanton. I'll show you who the fucking pussy is. And the pic on my profile is me, so you know who to look for. What do you care how people deal with their problems? Don't fucking judge someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes! Come talk shit to me face to face. That's a challenge pussy!

[JoliPetitCanard]

Huh. March 1st is my birthday and I have a large problem with self harm. Ain't that cute.

[BFSsonic]

For those who dont understand what im saying,its like this,,,attention seekers look for any reason to get attention. Its know fact they will even go to extremes.Vids like this only give more idias to these type of ppl.ppl with true self harm only can be hurt more emotionally by this.

[loversloveliarslie23]

@BFSsonic Vids like this can also make self harmers feel less alone, and help speread awareness. What you're saying basically makes it sound like you DON'T want to spread awareness, but it's ignorance that keeps stereotypes alive. 

[BFSsonic]

HAY lets watch a video that helps make us aware of self injurey!Oh man look at all the attention ill get now that ive seen such a heart touching vid on self harm.Oh i forgot the vids are meant to help me....or ...help me go into a state of depression and hurt myself..I CAN GET ATTENTION LIKE ALL THE OTHER U-TUBERS ......not siad out of hate,But i think u get my point.

[TashaRichardsonFan]

I am proud to say i am cut-free:D

[KrienSama]

I quit self injury for a year now. It has been hard to hold on, especially the past few months.

More people know of my past now, I've told some friends, but I can't tell my best friends and family. I'm afraid they will try to take controll and keep an eye on me.

I'm on a site where lots of people do it. Together we try to quit, we ask each other for help and it's easier to talk about it, we understand each other. Thanks to them I was able to hold on for this year. I hope many years will follow

[xhannah96x]

your scared of other peoples pain so u create the pain and hide the pain soo other people dont have too feel your pain

[xcjrangelx]

I agree with you I would never tell anyone I was self harming because I was so afraid that I would hurt them even more than hiding it from them.

In the end it all came out and now I am recovering self-injurer

[theemogrl1996]

thank you for making this i cut not a lot but i do and thank you for creating awarweness

[raycolopez1]

now i know!!!. . .thanks 4 makeing this video

[justuslot]

Im so terrified of the stigma. When my mum saw, she told me i was disgusting. As if i didn't think that already? I've stopped now, before it got really bad. I hope that people dealing with this get HELP. Not cruelty, ignorance or stereotypes thrown at them.

[cemetrywalker]

btw link in description the website has been moved

[xericacooperx]

wow thats a really deep vid...and people really need to know this...Seareously

[TheHolmesFactor]

I think it's so important for people to be aware when it comes to SI.

Thanks for making this!

:)

[loveforthe666]

FUCKING RIGHTS!!!!! you are soooooo right 6isis666 it does shit all

[6isis666]

and 2 everyone who thinks if they post stuff about us will help well it doesnt it makes everything worse so get a life and stop telling us its bad b cause we know its bad and u have no right 2 b posting a bunch of shit about us

[epikkboom606]

your right, 6isis666. this DOES NOT HELP!!! it only make things worse!!!

[6isis666]

i do t b cause i dont want 2 die but i dont want 2 live so 2 fix that i cause lots of pain on my wrists 2 make me feel better or if im having a really bad week illrun out of room an my wrists and do it some where else and everyone who has helped has given up on me and the feel sorry 4 me b cause they think i cant b helped

[stayci2k8]

SH is a very serious thing. People do it because they dont want to die but feel the need to feel pain for whatever reason. These people who cut arnt all emos. I cut. I swear pink,yellow,blue ect. I listen to britney spears and rihanna. Im not an emo. I cut because of how much agro i get at home and feel i cant talk to anyone about it. Its soo hard to talk to people. I can usally tell my best mate ANYTHING but it took me a while to tell her about this

So stop posting rude and horrible comments

[mcrandall2010]

SIA is very serious NOT A JOKE so STFU losers with no life!

[emosarefaggots12]

It should be noted that these whiny little emo pieces of crap have no real problems and that they just want us to feel sorry for them

[baklavalvr]

you are clearly so ignorant, not all people struggling with self injury are "emo". stop thinking about yourself for once, or don't leave worthless comments.

[emosarefaggots12]

hay i just thought people should know that these morons should be wiped off the face of the planet ending there butthurt whining forever

[stbaby14]

That may be the case for some, but not all. Would someone seriously cut themselves on a daily or bi-daily basis just for the attention? I personally would think that would take too much effort.

[GothicBabe31]

You did so good on this video. It get the point across that it can happen to anyone

[j0hnny4eyes]

this is a good video. the facts are actually... good. lots of these types of videos have all those stereotypes...

[cqmarine]

Who's this song by?

[QueenAdreena01]

Radiohead- Creep.

[cqmarine]

Thanks :D

[Paradox127]

to be honest... |_| <-- care cup, fill please.

[mrhappysaysbehappy]

The video is excellent and deals with this well. But like the last comment it was put that "most self harmers" do everyhting. Thats not strictly true. I self harm and know people who do also and we dont hide our scars. We only cover up when we have to, so we can avoid loved ones seeing it. But good job anyway.

[Mylastsin]

Depends on the person and who they are around. well thats just my opinion.

[sar007ah]

Uhg. I respect SI awareness, but I found this to be very cliche, and full of BS. "Most" is very inaqurate, and misleading. Look up real statistics before posting a video.

[lilgreendaygurl]

Most people I know cut, I do, they have only told our very close friends and hide it, most is teh right word for it..look around how many people you know cut or self harm? probably over half. cutting wrists is stero-typed many hide it, ankles, upper arms, stomach, thighs, ect.

[shortykell]

I'm 14 n have cut my wrist and tummy for nearly a yr . I hate ma self 4 doin it i have 1 m8 who nos she helped loads but i jst started cuttin tummy where she cant c i cant stop any1 got any idears on how 2 help me stop plz plz plz plz plz x.x.x

[emosarefaggots12]

maybe u should have learnt how to spell.

[shortykell]

I'm dislexic u twat... n i tryed that but people stopped me so guess sum1 wants me here even if u dont... n u need to get ova urself if u think u tellin people wat to do is ever goin 2 work.

[randomness551]

u shouldnt say things like that

its rude no one is making you watch these

videos if you dont like people who self harm then dont watch any videos about self harm

wannw know why

C-A-U-S-E P-E-O-P-L-E W-H-O W-A-T-C-H T-E-N-D T-O S-E-L-F H-A-R-M. BIG SURPRISE RIGHT???

i hope i spelled that out good enouph for you

[SoLostInYou]

Thanks for the video. :)

[stopselfinjury]

Nice video, awareness is needed. I cut and burned for 15 years and i stopped it, anyone can. message me for more information. recovery is possible

[wishflowrchild]

i'd most definately say that this was not a waste of time...good way to expose things and informative for the ones who can watch this with an OPEN heart. good job.

[nayomee77]

Thanks for the updated version!!

[justuslot]

thank you.

[RainOnTheWindow]

This makes me cry. I told my best friend in the world I used to SI and she decided I was a creepy attention whore that she no longer trusted. She then went and told my mom even though when I told her I hadn't SIed for a year and half.

Thanks for posting the vid. It's wonderful, and I think I may show it to my mom or post it on Myspace.

[deathknightscleric]

go kick her ass or shall I do?

my mother's way to abuse me, hit me every day, made it become much easier for me to harm a woman physically than a man, though at the same time in men I only see hostile competitors that you cannot trust and adore women for everything that differs them from men... hell I'm weird but it's got its logic once you get behind it.

[RainOnTheWindow]

Go for it.

Well, if the logic backs you up then... I kinda get it.

[WDX7770243546]

SI THEN.

[seeleunitone]

That's so sad.Your friend did a very mean,hurtful thing but I hope you get better

[RainOnTheWindow]

Thank you.

[jakinhalee]

this is true..and we all need help..

[IWUVANIME]

*hugs you* This was beautiful.....It was made well and you can tell you want to help.

I was a Self injurer for 9 years and finally found the help I needed to lead me away from the addiction and put my life back together.

I'm am glad there are people who try hard to raise awareness beacause it gives other SIers hope and shows them they are not alone and people do care....

[jesmalu]

good video! check mine out if you want.

[marydepugh]

Jeepers; we all wish we were fucking SPECIAL! Good song and video; i think anything you do to bring awareness is a good ideal!

[1GreyWolf]

And some are older, I am 45 and have SIed since I was 14.

[lathalkidd]

Hey, im Danielle and i just turned 13 years old, i just want to tell everyone out there that i SI and its is verry verry hard to stop, so please dont think we do it for attention, becaues we dont. Its just something that makes us feel better about ourselfs and it releases all out anger and that kinda stuf.But just remember Im 13 and people younger then me SI to. I SI when im angary. Its mostley becaues of my father. Anyway.. Byeee..x

[xXxkaytxXx]

wow amazing video :)

Are you a self harmer yourself?

sorry if thats a bit forward.

.x

[theshizirl]

I tear my own skin not for attention or fad, but because I am so ashamed of myself, am stressed about what surrounds me, and because I feel I am not as loved as I was as a child.

Thanks for supporting us here.

[koalabbstephanie]

Me too. I hear ya.

[krlamev]

Nice video... spread the fact... cuz it's happening righ now and some people still don't kno' about it.

Thanks I like the video cuz it doesn't put a tag to a cutter... could be any person "businessman, teachers, the ones who make you laugh..." ANYONE

[BleedingWrists6661]

hey man

ur video couldent have been more describing, i didnt know why i couldent stop even though i wasent hurting

i have stopped though...well kinda...but the irony of this

u posted this video on my 14th bday

[uliantis]

Most hide it, but some flont it. -.-

[otepadam]

i stoped cutting sevral years ago and swaped for veryus addictions but in impressed by the knolage you have, and i never new there was a si awerness day

[Beemorriscat]

Beautiful, and favorited.

I hope you had a good SIAD.

I did.

I'm a cutter

but stopping

:D

[ktanaya]

i am not a representative of ACA, i'm just an ex-self harmer who wants to spread awareness. you can contact me at recover your life dot com, my handle is ktanaya if you are interested. i know it is a uk clip but its still applicable in australia, and i'm sure i could dig up some statistics for you if need be, although i'm not sure where to get them. i look forward to hearing from you.

[ktanaya]

i would like to propose an idea to you. A current affair is an australian show which does stories on current events and issues. if your willing i'd like to send this clip plus other information to them to try and get them to do a story on this issue.

[1mitchy]

That is a really good idea. I sent them a leter a few months back telling them about my life as a cutter, but i have yet to hear back from them. xoxo

[koalabbstephanie]

I am a cutter. I am scare that i won't able to stop it at all.

[Alekona87]

great job!! =)

[DiamondForever07]

I loved this video. I think it does a great job of portraying how someone who Self Injures feels.

[xLIAxDOOKIEx]

how can you know so much about self-injurers?! it's unbelievable! you know exactly how I feel
