I'm so sorry all those feelings are all bottled up inside you --- but, that is exactly what makes you want to cut.

If you can't/won't talk about it, can you find a better way to release the pain, tension, whatever?

Cutting leaves permanent scars, runs the risk of infection, and is just plain not a good thing to do.

here is one good website.

http://www.helpguide.org/mental/self_injury.htm

Also, try googling "self harm" or "self injury." But be careful in case there are some sites that PROMOTE this, there probably are some.

do you want us to talk you out of it?Obviously you do,so you know this isn't helping.If you don't want to open up that's fine.Am here msg me if you want,I care about you x

Dea...distraction is sometimes better. Take a break from thinking. Turn on the TV, listen to some music, go for a walk, try a bath.

Call a crisis line or the local hospital -- they may offer some additional suggestions.

please look after yourself,If you need to cut then you know I can't stop you,but please please be careful x

Get up, walk about, shout, scream, throw things at your wall, sing in your loudest voice, count to 100 quickly - things which may relieve the tension. I know the feeling of needing to cut - but it only offers short term relief. Vent, Vent, Vent

its 11.00 at night i cant make noise. :,( i can find my blade help me

deleted_user 10/23/2007

I know exactly how you're feeling. I used to wish I could transport myself to a huge, empty field where tehre was no one else around so i could jsut scream and scream and scream.
It would be hypocritical of me to tell you not to cut but, if you really have to, be sure you make only shallow surface cuts, you use a clean sterile blade and that you clean teh wound thoroughly afterwards.
If you feel you can hold off then I would say definitely try some of Rubyblue's tips xxx

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
