People who want to cut themself?

Why do people cut? Is it to relieve stress? For attention? If you do cut, why do you? I don’t want to offend anyone, I just want to understand it better.

Answer #1

People cut for a lot of reasons. I mean it is basically a coping tool , it relieves anger, pain, sadness, numbness, guilt, etc etc. Some people do cut for attention. And attention seeking tends to annoy most people. Including me sometimes. But at the end of the day, attention seeking is done because a person is lacking something…

Answer #2

I’ve done it a few times, and I can honestly say I didnt do it for attention. at the time I was just going through a lot of negative emotions inside, I felt as if I had no control over what was going on, and that nobody cared… I felt alone. by cutting,I would focus on the cut itself and all the pain I was feeling would be on the cut, and not everything else. as of now, I try not to let things get to me so much but sometimes when I break down I feel the urge to cut but I know better

Answer #3

Before when I was yunger I use to cut I’m 14 now but I use to do it because I got abused and my dad insisted that I needed no theraphy and the pain and discust I felt was too mcu to take, I had troubles whit my mom and I was in charche of a lot in the house, I was like the adult. I found no othr way to cope and I did that, see whe I cuted I felt that everything that I felt was just coming out of the cut. Till know I do relize that It was bad but I was going trough a hart time and I didnt have much sopport. A lot of people do judge but they need to pull back the layers first.

And sometimes I do cut but I had to grow up fast and become the adult of my house by the time I was 8 years old.

Answer #4

they want to cut becase they want to hurt themselves but dont want to kill themselves
