i used to be a cutter. now i bear the shame and the questions about my scars. try 2workout your pain by going for an run or taking care of an animal. writing down your feelings. anything besides self injury.
Cutting yourself is great. It’s a release and a punishment and a distraction. But I don’t endorse it for anyone else. It’s addictive and dangerous, once you start you can’t stop. I’ve been cutting every day for the past month or so, and it’s not a good, healthy thing for me to be doing. I just have to because I did it once 3 years ago. Trust me, there are way better ways of making the pain ease than cutting.
i agree beaGhost, it is very addictive. it feels good for the moment but it’ll hurt again later. all your doing is having physical pain instead of emotional pain. it feels like your in control of something but eventually it’ll control you.
Cutting yourself works for certain people like myself. I don’t condon it but I will say it may help but in a bad way. For me it takes all the mental pain away for awhile and then it comes back. But sometimes it’s just not enough. I’ve been cutting since I was 5 years old and still do it today. If you are going to do it which I’m not saying you should just make sure the thing you use it clean you don’t want to get infected. If you want to talk about it I’m here kieylee102@gmail.com
im an ex- cutter. yes it does help with certain situations but its bad and unhealthy for you. Hiding the cuts are harder than you think. But just look back and see the scars on your arms… it makes you think why you did it. It makes you way you even started. Or how it even got in your head. I get away from it by writing poems. I pour alot of emotions into it. It somehow helps, but it also escapes the fate of cutting too. Try something that makes you escape it.
Cutting is a great release but is highly addictive… It leaves scars on your body and obviously they will always be there… If you have not cut already, I suggest not doing it… Try taking a rubber band and slapping it against your wrist as many times until the emotions cease… If you want to see blood, draw a line with a red marker, on your wrist… Then go talk to someone… Trust me, you do not want to be like me… Cutting is my release and I wish I never would have found it, but I did not have someone to tell me not to do it.. You do.. ME and beaGhost… We do it and have been through it.. Find something healthier to get rid of your stress and pain.. Exercising would be great.. It sends off endorphins into your brain.. Endorphins help fight depression when you get physically hurt.. That’s what happens to me and beaGhost.. When we cut, our brain sends out endorphins and it makes things better for only a short while.. Its not the way to go..
i used to be a cutter i still am i guess i can say i am not proud of myself because once people find out they start making fun and people ask about the scars that part doesnt feel good 🙁
To be honest. I’m still struggling with self-harm. I have tried to quit, this is the longest I’ve gone ever which is 2 months. I didn’t only cut, I burnt myselt , and scratched myself. Burnt myself with cigarettes. Cut myself with glass and anything I could get my hands on. Cutting is like a piece of relief. With each cut you feel new, for a short time. Like its a relief to finally get the pain out. Its like holding in tears and then letting go and crying. But the worst part is afterward. You just stare at the blood. Whatch your tears and blood mix together. Its like floating you feel the pain but it feels good. Like your high, when I would do it I would feel numb, untoucable. I constantly get questions on my scars (if I don’t have fresh cuts usually I don’t mind exposing my arms and legs) Some people grab my wrist and just stare at it, acting as if its an alien baby. Some people ask questions like: How did this happen? Why did you do it? Some people tell me to trust the lord and find Jesus. They say I’m hurting jesus. Of course I ignore them.
