I'm not a doctor and have problems of my own, but take heart in this: suffering is not forever. Pain must eventually end. Whether it happens with medication or with time or with someone you love, it will eventually be over.

Seek treatment, but at the same time remember that human suffering is temporary. There is light at the end of the tunnel for everyone.

Im a cutter to.I try to realize that, there are other ppl who have it worse than me,and even though im going through as you described it as "pain". Im losing interest in once loved thigs, like art,hanging out with my friends,and spending quility time with my family.And if you read my posts you learn more about me because they are like mainly about cutting. Alot of ppl dont understand why they cut in the first place,im so mad at myself for all the times ive taken the "pain"out on myself just to make the outside of my body look the way I feel on the inside. Right now its winter here so its easy to cover my arms but im terrified to think of what to do to hide my scars in the summer I certainly cant wear sweaters for ever thats what I know. Either I have to fess up to my parents and face the consiquences. Or just something else I dont know what I would do if my parents found out what I do . All I have to say is your not alone, and I kno what ur going through . Im here if you need a friend to talk about it...C ya round.......
