So there was someone who saw my scars and cuts and asked me if I was trying to kill myself. It’s not the first time someone has asked me that. Someone who cuts doesn’t always want to kill themselves. A lot of people actually just cut for relief and not to die. If they wanted to die by cutting then they would probably be dead already. It annoys me a lot when people ask me if I was trying to kill myself. And then I have to go and explain everything to them which I don’t wanna do, so I don’t really. And the scars would be much worse and cuts much deeper if I was trying to kill myself by cutting and it would be obvious that’s what I was trying to do. Now they’re just cuts deep enough to relieve me and bleed exceptional amount.
But there are people who do try to kill themselves by cutting, so I am not speaking for everyone. Just me.

I used to cut. I don’t anymore though because whatever relief it was giving me at the time.. was just causing me even more pain. & it didn’t stop or change any of my problems that drove me to start cutting in the first place.
How would cope if you stopped cutting yourself?
because in reality cutting doesn’t fix anything.. even if right now it is your way of coping.
I have no idea how I would cope if I stopped cutting. I havn’t stoped since I started about 6 months ago. And it’s like I don’t think when I cut, about all of the bad things. I just don’t think and it’s like my mind feels like it’s gona explode if I don’t stop thinking. You get what I mean? Like it frees me from all my bad thoughts.
