Im 14 years old. Ive been a cutter ever since I was in 6th grade. My life has been a living hell. I know you people might think im crazy.And so do i.I do believe in god and I have faith in him. But where is he when I need him? My mother also suffers from depression and so do i. I got it from her basically. I see her cry every day and it makes me worse. She found out I cut my self on my stomach with a sharp razor, she flipped on me! She thought I stopped. Everything is getting from bad to worse. I have to hide my emotions and wait for my tears to fall in the night when shes not looking but sometimes I cant help it!! I dont know y I cry. I dont know why I feel like this. My father left us, like about 3 years ago now.Y brother and sister moved so its only me and my mother. I have to pretend that everything is good and do good in school at the same time. My mom got me a therapist but that doesnt work at all!! I cant trust any of my friends cause nobody would understand me...So I looked up mutalation on the web and found this. No one expect this from me, im like the goody girl, the "popular" one, the one that all guys "like"...I seem reely happy in the outside but in the inside im dieying.Please if you think u know what I should do please write back as soon as you can before I can make a mistake in my life.... I also joined in a gang ...I dont know why was the reason for it ...Im also having sex alot..And im just 14. I got rapped when I was 13 by some stupid guy there...I have so much pain in my heart..I dont know what to dooooooooooooo please help me..:cry:

*well now wow a couple of months has past ever since I wrote that up there ...Things are going better,but I still feel depressed..I stopped cuttin myself even though im going threw soo much pain.I know I just have to let go of the past and focus on the future...My friend died on june16,2005..I miss him soo much.A 14 year old shot him 5times..And I dont know what to do now....R.I.P phoenix -age 15- 2/14/89-5/16/05

I just joined this site today for a very silly question about a finger twitch, and I came across your post. I wanted to let you know that I recently saw a show on oprah about a young girl who was a cutter. She was older than you ...Maybe in her 20's. I only saw a portion of the show, but she was on it and I think she has gotten better. I would suggest going on oprah's website and seeing if you can order a tape from that show, maybe there might be some advice that can help you. Also, if your therapist isn't working, I would suggest finding a new one. I don't think you should do this alone. Good luck and i'm so sorry you are going through this.

Hey,

i used to hurt myself quite a bit throughout high school. I am now 25 and don't cut or burn myself anymore. Occasionally i'll still pinch or hit myself. But I am not nearly as bad as I once was.

Are you and your mother seeking professional help? I don't think you can expect things to get better unless you're both seeking treatment of some kind.

For the time being you can try other things to help you get through those moments where you want to cut. Try snapping a rubberband on your wrist, holding ice or punching up a pillow. It's not going to be the same, you're not going to get the same satisfaction from it. But it will be enough to help you get through those rough patches.

I am 14 years old and I suffer from depression and an obsessive compulsive disorder, in which I lie all the time.

My friends at school are beutiful, but they have no idea how I feel.

I have been depressed for about a year and a half now, which mostly involved me crying a lot and spacing out, but a couple of days ago I grabbed a pair of scissors and cut my arm to shreads.

I did it again the next day, and again this morning.

At school my teacher noticed but I ignored her, and I have tied a bandage around my arm in hope of stopping myself cutting.

Your post made me fel sad, hopeless and inadiquet, meaning that, a lot of caca has happened to you, a lot of bad stuff that I can't compete with. You have a reason to be depressed. I just don't see my reason.

love nicole

I agree with sandy
there are times when you need to just reach out and seek help because thats the most successful way to get cured - so to speak, with cutting.
I use to be a cutter myself, but now when I look at the scars I have deep regrett and had wished I never did it. At the time, it was only a temporary relief, I had almost died once, and that that was wrong and way to close, not only are you hurting yourself, but your hurting your loved ones!!
So do stop before you seriously seriously hurt yourself! Remember there are friends and family that care.
