Q: Stitches
asked by: 1JohnSmith1 on March 3rd, 2007

Does anyone know how to make stitches? I have the feeling I might need them soon. It doesn't matter what kind, preferable numerous kinds. I would just staple it but I don't have a stapler.

I know in Australia we have something by the name of butterfly clips, they work the same way as stitches. Im guessing your deliberately cutting yourself, please please please stop and seek help!!

It doesnt take much to cut the wrong vein and you end up paralysed or even dead. Is there anyone that you can talk to?? Parents, friend, counsellor??

I know what I'm doing, I'm cutting my leg. Besides you'd have to go pretty deep to kill yourself unless you were cutting vertically.

Please if you know how to make them, tell me or send me a link to a decent tutorial. Otherwise, please refrain from the propaganda. I know what I'm doing, it's my choice, it's the way I choose to cope.

Well, I made the cut. I taped gauze over it, I figure I have a delay before it's necessary to apply the stitches. So, anyone willing to help out?

Do you have butterfly clips over there?? Even if you did have a stapler, it wouldnt work!!

Goodluck with finding a solution!
