Answer #1

Emo,

If you really want to quit this crap then this is what you need to do. Take a look around you. Do you have the dark clothes? Are your friends emo too? Do you listen to dark, gloomy …” I hate my life” kind of music? Get rid of the negative influences, whether it be music, mood or friends. I noticed in another post that you said you have problems with your mom, are they real problems, or she doesn’t support your decisions? Real problems would be like, abuse of any kind, that sort of thing. If she doesn’t support your decisions, then maybe it is because she sees how it is effecting you. You really need to start changing “the mood” that perhaps you create for yourself each day. Depression is terrible. My daughter was going down the same path, but I stopped it before it went to far. I took all of her friends away, and grounded her and I got her help. She HATED me for it in the beginning, but now she thanks me. She is so happy with her life, and we are the BEST of friends. You need to really find a responsible adult who help you. Life is really great, but you have to make the effort to make it great. I know that sometimes kids look for attention because for some reason or another they aren’t getting enough. You may be one of those kids, only you don’t realize it.

I only hope that you do find help, whether it be a doctor, therapist, even a youth minister. Someone you can talk to without being judged. You have to want this too, and giving up friends is not easy, but in order for a positive change, you might have to. Good luck to you honey…

Answer #2

Gal, I’m awfully sorry. It sounds as if you should be talking to a guidance counselor at school. You may need to get some professional help.

Hopefully, your counselor can help.

Good Luck !!

Answer #3

I do the same thing its no big deal… going back and forth with a nail file is a nice substitute for a razor when cutting, because it only leaves small cuts or none at all. thats what I do because I dont need any more problems with my mom. im glad to know that im not completely alone. funmail me if you want to talk.

Answer #4

ok seriousley? emo is a style its not cutting your self. if you cut your self and want to die and write sad or suiside poems then your not going emo your just deppresed. you could be the happiest person in the world and have the greatest friends and an awesome life and still be emo its just a style. and if you listen to scremo that doesnt mean you emo ither ;)

Answer #7

Evevrybody has those days…and so do i…I get mood swing too. Everybody thinks ima drunk retard because of my mood swings… Anyway, I think u should clam down and ask yourself: WHy am i doing this?? You dont have to starve yourself unless you have a good enough reason to do it. But im sure there is no good reason. Replace your cutting habits with some hobbies or what ever. I dont know why IAM giving you advice on how to stop cutting, since i myself, locked myself up in my closet couple hours ago and hurt myself… cant forgivive myself for that.
