Cutting isn't worth it. Period. I know it's the whole "it gives me a break from emotional pain as I focus on physical pain". But it's only a temporary relief. If it was really helpful, then you wouldn't have to keep going back to it. I know it's really hard to stop, but you can if you really try to. Believe me. There are other ways to deal with emotions and pain that won't hurt you or others who love you.
I used to sorta go through a cycle 1. Cut 2. Relief 3. Feel guilty 4. Try to stop 5. Back to 1 Does that happen wiv u hunter ??
Yes, you can. It may take a lot of work and time, but you can stop. First control your urges, and then slowly lessen the amount of cuts and how often you do it. Eventually, you'll get down to not doing it at all and be able to deal with that
