I used to cut myself and I need help..

hey i know how you feel, i use to cut aswell and i use to get urges alot too, one thing that helped me fight urges was to find something else that helped me release my depresstion, anger, sadness ect and for me it was poetry, so number one you should find something else to do to let your feelings out, then i started taking relora (no it’s not a drug or anything or a medication it’s just a vitamin that help balance out your hormones so your emotoins are more under control) the next thing i did was brought a whole pack of red pens ( my boyfriend’s idea) and everytime i felt like cutting instead i drew a line everywhere i wanted to cut. after a while of doing that i notice i draw less lines and the number of urges went way down i still get them every once in a while but that stuff really helps. well hope you feel better and i hope i helped.

your friend,

Poetic =)

Frost of all i am just like you i always wanted to cut myself because i think some other grils is pretty then me or i not doing well in school and i did not have a boyfriend or because i thought my parents hated meand because they use to be mean to me i use to hate myself but now i starting to like myself a little because i am getting alot of comments that i am a pretty little lady and i dress nice and the like how i do my hair i am getting my self esteem back again that what you should do what every is bothering you just com down you will be just fine if you need to talk to some one get help do what ever you can but DO NOT TRY TO CUT YOURSELFOR KILL YOURSELF GOD PUT YOU ON THIS PLANET TO LIVE NOT FOR YOU TO TAKE YOUR OWN LIFE TRUST ME YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO DO THAT PLEASE DO NOT TRY NOTJING STUPIED

i know what your going to. i’ve been suicidal for 4 years now i have cut for about 3 1/2 years. i just stoped cutting in January. i still have urges and still want to cut my self but i keep thinking about what all my friends said. They kept telling me that there is something better out there and that they will extremely miss me if i’m gone. I’ve been to consuling and it never helped me, if anything it made me more depressed. try to think of the positive things i know you feel like there is nothing positive in your life and you think that death is the way. i still think that way, but i haven’t gone over board. Whats going on, maybe i can help you. I know you probably don’t trust peopple right now and you think that they can’t help you. You can trust me. if you need to talk, i’m here just drop in my mailbox and leave a message. Hope this helped.

i’ve stopped now for a year this november. the last time i did it i ended up with seven stitches in my arm. i didnt even mean to do it that bad at all! but i’ve finally stopped and even though sometimes i still want to cut..i resit it and it feels so good to have finally stopped..now i just need to be consitant with the mederma to lighten these scars!

I’m sorry..didnt mean to be rude but,

my ex used to cut herself and she would never explain why to me- so i always thought it was my fault..it makes me sad..i hope you solve your problem

=), let me know..

I havent done that but i know one of my friends does. Well, he talks to me about his problem and i tell him to always talk to me first and if you mad with someone just write a letter let it out but dont send it to the person you are angry with. You can break a pieace of wood that him out it might help you too. If you are sad you can read a book and than cry over the pllow but dont put anything that can cut you. If you ever need a friend you can talk to me.

hey, i kno exactly what ur going through i had cut for like 1 1/2 or 2 years and thi spast year i stopped every once in a while i have those day where i just want to lock the door to my room and slice away a few things that help me are group therapy and being with people if i do get the urge to cut i go sit in the main room of my house because i dont want to cut and i would never do it in front of my sisters or brother or parents.

i hope my advice can help you =]

Hey, i used to cut myself all the time, but i stopped. Just like you, i have urges to do it. Keep a rubberband on your wrist and snap it , it feels like ur cutting. It didnt work for me, but maybe for you? funmail me if ud like

Why dont you go donate blood and kill two birds with one stone?

I kno wat u r goin through. i have cut myself twice and it was only recently that i realized that there is no reason to. If u have anger u can punch something soft. But sadness is mostly the problem i had. If you need a friend i am here.

First you should know that it IS possible to get better and to get help, sometimes you have to just keep trying (not every counselor is going to have the same method for helping you, many people I know who have had to go to counseling have had to visit several different ones before finding the one whose method worked for them.) Try talking to your family about what’s going on with you, and ask your doctor for some recommendations. Counseling is the best way to release emotions and problems for a lot of people, but you also might need the help of antidepressants which your doctor can give you advice on. Also, the fact that you have resisted the urge shows your strength and want to get better, so you definitely are capable of pulling through this. Best of luck, and don’t give up!!

i know what your going through i’v cut myself alot and attempted suicide a few times butmy friends stopped me and helped me to get a little better im still not the happiest person in the world but i’m not trying to kill myself on a daily basis anymore either and iv only od’ed once this week well includingsaturday and sunday of last but hey im better and u can be too if u ever need a friend to talk to and help u ill be here

U R pathetic..

i like that one persons advice-donate blood-..hahahhahahaha..lol..{craking up laughing}

im the same I dont under stand why cutting takes my anger away but it does…nothing else seems to work..I havent cut for about six months now, but its really getting to me today, im going to be strong tho!! and the elastic band thing is a realy good idea..it stops the urge for a little while..hope you get better x

I cut too. I got better for about five months with my boyfirend helping me more htan he knew. and when he dumped me it hurt. then my dad was being really mean to me one day and it started againg. now, I am SO TIRED of the scars and people scrutining me. I told my mom and she told my teacher and neither of them ever traeted me the same. it’s horrible how people discriminate us. if you EVER need to talk email me @ k.e.thorell@gmail.com I’m there. could use some help to know I’m not the only one out there doing this to myself
