1. i feel the need to cut when i feel like i'm losing it, or when i see or hear something triggering

2. i feel depressed a lot, but the feelings that give me the urge to cut happen much less, maybe once or twice a week.

3. i'm not being sarcastic i'm probably up in the thousands with all my cuts.

4. i feel accomplished when i cut, like it's the one thing i can control.

5. i cut for the release most of the time, other times it;s becaseu i honsetly think i might just break down if i don't.

6. my mom knows but she thinks i quit, most of my friends know. some ignore it like it isn't there others just get mad when i do it. none really offer help.

7. i have thoughts of killing myself often. I tried twice to overdose but i just ended up sick with a big headache.

me :

1. every time i felt pathetic, suffocate, sucks (the list is too long, let just keep with these)

2. sometimes only few times a day, sometimes it feel likes every second hit me badly.

3. hundreds to a thousand in reality. millions in my mind. or billion..

4.high tension when is going to cut, damn good pain when the blade cut, and then it's blank.. the blank mind is my favorite moment. i also love it when it's hurt every time i walk.

5. both, but it's hard to make the blood keep flowing, any idea?

6. a few, no much help, u can't tell them "i can't breathe when u're away".u'll scared them off.
and i'm not going to say that, i'll just cut anyway.

7. yes and no. i still have hope for the future but thinking of cutting my wrist and see the never-ending flowing blood is damn tempting. but no, i'll keep my hope for now.

1. When I'm really bored or really depressed... which ever comes first.

2. Either all week or just a few days out of the week. I've got alot of ups and downs.

3. I don't even know. Not NEARLY as many as you guys tho.

4. Release, clarity, control, sanity, reality. Its just amazing.

5. Mostly the blood. Ive burned a few times for the pain. I like the scars, i think they're cool.

6. Only 2 of my closest friends. Definitly they've both been through it and they're helping me :3

7. All the time. But i think about how selfish it is, and how much I'll miss my bff and all the things all miss out on. I'm too curious to actually pull the trigger. I wanna know what the future holds. Good or bad, i just have to know. =)

1) When I'm either depressed or when I hear the "call"
2) Quite often when I was younger, but now just a few times per week
3) I count 10 scars on my right arm and 60+ on my left (does not include the few on my left hand and leg)
4) Emotion draining while pain fulfilling
5) When I was younger to rid myself of the emotion, yet now its to answer the "call"
6) My family and select friends, and they do help just didn't at first
7) Yes... yes... and yes, but I'm better now

1. When I am stressed out by something and it doesnt have to be anything big.
2. At least three or four times a day.
3. I honestly dont know, well into the thousands.
4. relief from the stress. I dont feel pain, not til after ive stopped, even if they are deep.
5. something else - to get rid of horible built up feelings and I felt like i had no other way to really get rid of them.
6. Yes, sveral people kno, some are helpful, most are not.
7. ALl the time.

I found these questions to be interesting. I cannot comment on them as just reading them did trigger me, but I i'll try and come back to them when I can. They really hit the mark though as what I need to ask myself Thanks

1. when im stressed or when my head tells me i need to
2. everyday but i can usually fight it for a week or two
3. countless
4. first stress, then relief, then shame
5. to release stress and because my thoughts tell me its a good idea. i like blood. more then that i like burning. i just like something on my body that i had control over.
6. my husband knows a little but not all. i hide it. no one else knows
7. i have in the past. i think that si helps me to not have suicidal thoughts.
i hope that i answered all your questions right. i hope that i helped you some.

1. I feel like I need to cut if I have had a bad day or I need to feel the pain because I don't feel alive.

2.It depends really...

3.A lot, it is getting worse at the moment I do it more and when I do do it I hurt myself quite a lot.

4. I feel like I am letting everything go and I feel like I am floating looking at whats going on in the world.

5. I cut to feel alive sometimes but mostly to let everything go.

6. Some of my friends know and some of my family, a few of them said I was doing it for attention but most of them wanted to support me and help me through it.

7. Yes but it is getting better, I thonk about it but I also think about everyone I would be leaving behind and how selfish it would be.

1. when im stressed, depressed, upset etc..
2. most days, sometimes everyday but not bad all the time
3. impossible to say, loads..

7.Have suicide thought?
hell yes, all the time. a major reason I cut, if I cut I feel a little more alive.

1. I feel like cutting when I'm at the end of my rope, when I'm trying to find relief, when I'm sad, and when I need to feel something more.

7. Yes, but I'm getting help.
There is hope.

1. When i get anxiety attacks, or theres alot of stress happening at one time.
2. At least once a week.
3. One to many..
4. Relief....
5. The physical pain
6. Yes,no they dont help
7. All the time..

1. I feel as if i need to cut, when the feeling of emotional numb-ness gets to the point that I feel cold, emotionally not physically of course.
2. The majority of the time I spend awake. But it has been increasingly so for around a month and a half now. It didn't used to be this often.
3. More times then I have been able to keep track of.
4. Less numb, less cold. A little more like i imagine a normal person would feel.
5. For a mixture really, the stinging, the blood, the relase of frustration, the feeling of being almost normal, and sometimes, for the memories it brings back.
6. Several people do, most of them were freaked out, one of them was amazed at my so called "pain tollerance" two were concerned, and only one could offer anything that was remotely helpful.
7. Several times, but not for a few months now, not since the feeling of numb took over. Now things seem as if I am just waiting, for what I cant say, but waiting none the less.

1- When I hate myself. When I haven't done something perfectly. When I think I have upset people and especially when I am drunk.

2- Depends, sometimes a lot other times I can be quite 'normal'.

3- I've been cutting for 14 years so more than I can count.

4- Revolted and angry at myself first. Then when I cut I feel relief and after I feel calm and usually go to sleep.

5- I cut to punish myself. It doesnt hurt at the time but I love the sting of a hot shower the next day or when I peel my clothes off the cuts after they have stopped bleeding (I dont use dressings as self inflicted so dont deserve to look after the cuts). I also have to have blood, the more the better.

6- My psychologist knows, my parents and some friends knew when I was younger but think I stopped years ago.

7- Nope. I sometimes think the world would be better without me but I have never seriously felt suicidal.
