                                 Self harmers......words from their own mouth

" yes, possibly self-harming. lol it wasn't actually that bad, it just bled more than it had any right to. it was weird though. i didn't want to do that to myself, i had no reason to. i guess stress is just rebuilding itself inside of me. ill make sure that if that feeling comes up again, ill meditate and be around people so that i won't. i hate it when i wake up in the morning with a new scab to hide, so ill make sure it wont happen again. at least ill try not to. trust me, if i wanted to keep going i wouldn't have just told you. i guess all of my thinking about me and the world has gotten to my head, eh? not to worry, ill try my very hardest not to let it happen again. i forced myself to stop last time and instead started writing. and although the poem turned out very creepy, at least it prevented me from getting harmed"      anonymous cutter




How do  I stop cutting???
"I've been cutting for  over 4 years and it was kinda off and  on, but now it's completely  out of hand. I have cuts all over my body and I  bring a knife  to school everday to get some type of relief, but the thing is no  one knows. Any suggestions on how to stop cutting by myself." anonymous cutter

Answer to the self cutter
Instead of cutting, try  clenching your fists real hard and  just constrict yourself into  a ball, tightly. Or pop a rubber band on your  hand or wrist real hard to feel pain.See a shrink  and get some meds and go to a support group. You need to learn  that  you are a beautiful person. You are doing this for the relief that  follows  after you cut. Get new friends and work out your issues  at home. If it is too  much to bare at home then find activities  away from the house. Find a beautiful  new friend at a support  group and move in with them. The state will get you free  meds  and therapy if you are broke. Go to church on sunday and after the  sermon  go into the kitchen to be around nice people and eat up  all their free cake and  coffee. A lot of the stuff there is homemade.bless  you. john...you know that John  Lennon suffered too. But he got  into primal scream therapy. Thats where you  litterally scream.  He wrote a song called COLD TURKEY and at the end of  it he is  screaming  out his lungs. John Lennon also used to talk to Paul Mc Cartney about drilling a hole in his head to releive his pressures.  Lennon had heard about this being done in the mid ages, so Lennon was for sure a cutter or self harmer of some kind. But whether he actually ever cut or what forms of releif he seeked were unsure because other than primal scream therapy nothing else was reported about him self harming. so there is alternate therapy to the relief from  cutting. 

Question from a cutter
Is it  normal for me to act this way?
Ok, heres  the story, my mom died when i was 4 and my brother  was 11 months.  After that my dad become an acholic, and long story short, we  ended  up in a 2 bedroom house when i was 14, and i found myself crying  and  seriusly depressed. Then i ended up cutting myself(not to  die, but to just know  that im alive) and the blood made me happy.  But that only lasted for alittle  while, and after that i just  lost all emotions. Im 15 now, i havent cryed or  felt "any" emotion  at all, even when i visit her grave i dont fell any thing,  its  this weird.
