Please do not start cutting. u will regret it. if u make that first cut be prepared to... say goodbye to shorts and short sleeved tops at the beach and in the summer. lie to everyone around u. be freaked out everytime someone calls you back into the room because ur scared u forgot to clean up the blood. for your life to become overtaken by the thought of cutting. U can relate EVERY song you hear into cutting. to feel so alone all the time. Even wen ur surounded by millions of people. i set fire to stuff instead wen i get angry or sad. it gets rid of the stress and i'm not slashing myself. I don't sugest u start setting fire to stuff unless u have a sensible head (know whats flamnible ect) u could try screaming into a pillow, or stabbing bits of paper or plastic. Or if ur looking to feel something, try taking a cold shower or listening to music or drawing/ writing ur feelings on paper and ripping it up. Music is a lifesaver. I sugest my chemical romance or 30 seconds to mars. Oh and justin beiber. Jk. Justin beiber will make u go suicidal.
I do the 'Best-For-The-Ones-Close-To-You Method' or BFTCTY .-. I listen to P!nk's song 'Perfect or ****in' Perfect'. Then I think of what would happen to anyone who cares about me, particularly, me .-. And I meditate, cry it out, slap myself a few times and go to rest.
I cut now and I'm trying to stop. Secily is right about what will happen if u cut. I never thought that when I made my first cut it would lead to this I was so stupid and now I can't stop. I'm lucky though Im a guy so I can wear shorts and I just wear a sweatshirt until the redness goes away then I can wear watever I want. And it's winter so I don't have to go swimming (duh) so I don't need to take my shirt off. If u ever have the urge to cut and u have never cut before and don't kno all the consequences do NOT do it you will regret it for the rest of your life. Do one of the earlier suggestions
Ive been cutting since last year. I never thought my first cut will lead to many other. I now am upset most of the time if I don't cut. My boyfriend gets up set with me because of my cutting
My first cut was just to see eat cutting feels like. Now I cut all the time and I can't go without cutting for 3 days
Cutting kills, do not think that you are special and none of the consequences will catch up! All it does is give you one more thing to worry about! If you feel bad, surround yourself with friends and family. There is NO GOOD REASON to cut yourself, no matter what
Some scars don't go away. I cut to deep and now I have a pink scar on my arm from two weeks ago. I can go a week or two with out cutting
About 3/4 of my cuts r now scars half or less of those will turn into permanent scars. My first scar you can barely see now
I dont care (well i do subconciously) i know it sounds mean and ice cold but there are MILLIONS of other things you could do; join clubs, join academies, sports, the list goes on. I dont know where you got this mindset from but cutting is not a "solution" to any problem. The only time it was ever accepted was before modern medecine and people DIED. It may feel good but that is just what you have heard from other people so in your mind it feels good.
