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. :)

@OFullMoonWitchO Glad you cut or glad you fought the urge?

Now why does the video in the suggestions bar titled "before you cut..." have the exact same words in this video? hmmmm...

[elpelco]

@flower5890 Because I didn't write the words, I first read them on the Recover your life forums. I don't know who wrote them.

[beccaboo21895]

@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.

Self harm isn't yours. Everyone who does it does it a different way. May I respectfully suggest you not tell people the 'correct' way to do it?

I do it every night and I am so ashamed! my first cut was already to deep because I had a high pain tolerance and they just got deeper...

[SuperBiebergirl98]

@OFullMoonWitchO i feel the same way. i try to fight the urge myself but i cant stop

[SuperBiebergirl98]
