I've sent you a private message....

I used to cut, but have been symptom free for over a year. I know the relief you allude to - but feeling the feelings is what will bring you out on the other side.

Cutter, burner here, too. I've sent you a pm and anyone is welcome to pm me to talk about anything.

Hi,
i am 27 and cut my arm about 3 times at about age 19 or 20.I have bipolar but was not diagnosed with that until I was 25 I dont know why I did it I never told anyone or seen a doctor about it back then.I was quite depressed and went on anti-depressants about age 21 or 22 I stopped them after a few years and was hospitalised with mania/psychosis which was a completely different feeling from the way I was feeling when I cut myself.I now think it may be all intertwined in some way or another good luck

hi my name is meha and im 17 almost 18 and I cut myself and I just cut myself last night.

Cutting is stupid but all the while, very addicting. I know how you all feel. Been there done that.Still do

I'm not a cutter. Why do you do it? I wonder why so many young people now adays feel unloved, unconnected,and out of control. Is it because we are a country full of selfish people? I wish I could help you.

It's not that I feel inloved or unwanted, for me it's all about anger and fustration. And alittle bit of hurt. When I don't know what to do I cut and in a way it helps me keep my head. I know it sounds weird and your probley wondering if it hurts. For me it dosen't, i've done it so long that my pain tolarence has gone up. Plus the fact I can't feel anyuthing from the top of my wrist down to my finger tips. But the reason why i'm here is to be helped.

I cut myself too.If you have a hard time talking to your mom then write her a letter and tell her if that would be easier for you.Its your decicions to tell or not and a tough one but still scairy...I hope that you and your mom start getting along better and i'll post more.

Hey...I'm 14 and i've been cutting for about 2 years...I only do it every once in a while...At first it started with my finger nails then progressed to paper clips, then safety pins(not so safe are they), and now pocket knifes. This is my first year in high school and I met my savior. He is my best friend and shall remain nameless...About a month ago I told him about my cutting... He hasn't treated me different since but hates that I do it... This year I asked him what he wanted for christmas and he told me that he wanted me to stop...So this year for christmas any time I get the feeling that I want to do it I call him... Any time of day or night he is there for me... I also use the rubber band trick which really does help... Most of the time it is just my step parents and regular parents that make me do it...But yea my bff is my angel for heaven....I love him more than I have ever loved anybody and I don't know what I would do with out him because I haven't cut in about 3 weeks...And although I have not done it for some time I will always be a cutter and I know that and I am okay with that its just the fact that I now know that someone cares enough about me that they want me to stop...If anybody else wants some one to talk to please know that I am here to pm...I've gone through it and still am and it will be a life lone battle but I am willing to fight it and I hope all of you are to...Much...Love...P.S. Writing and drawing when I get the urge helps to for any of you artistic ones out there reading this

Im a retired cutter, I never knew why I stopped, could have been that my sister threatened to come kill me again if I were to die from cutting myself, -sigh- I guess I can understand everyone on the whole cutting, I enjoyed it, I loved the thrill it gave me but I only used knives but if u want to talk just message me

i'm a cutter too. alot of you say you do it out of frustration and anger. i do it because of stress. there are so many stressors in my life and sometimes i get this feeling in my stomache, this pain. and it just mounts higher and higher until i feel like i'm going to burst. i panic and in that panic i grab what ever is around me and slice my arms. right away the feeling subsides and i breathe easier. i know it's not healthy but it's the only thing that works, and its the only thing that i have. i don't think i'll ever be able to quit, and that scares me. but deep down i don't want to. it's part of who i am.

I cut and burned myself, but haven't done it in a while. If anyone wants to talk, PM me

I cut i need help
