I do. Just don't cut in the bath, but I think the shower is ok

thanks for the response i will keep that in mind

cutting in the bath or shower is not safe at all. you will loose alot more blood due to the heat, the veins come closer to the surface of the skin and you are more likely to cut a major vein. its also very hard to put a real estimate on the amount of blood loss. once u loose to much blood your body can go into shock and can equally kill you.

it is not a good or safe way. please aviod it.

i just also wanted to add, the the heat will make the skin softer and will cut open alot more easier,wider and deeper.

i cut in the shower, have for 32 years...you are not alone

I cut in the bath...

thanks for the comments guys

i used to, so you're not alone, but one day i passed out and hit my head, i almost drowned but my mom found me. it really is not a safe thing to do, so if you could find another place to do it, one that gives you the same sense of security i would go there, versus the shower. (and note i am in no way condoning or supporting cutting, i just know how hard it is to stop, especially if you're not ready to. just giving advise to be a bit safer in the meantime)

I don't cut in the bath/shower, but I sometimes cut with my arm under warm water.

Hey sweetie why did you cut yourself Thats not good. that you keep doing that please don't cut anymore. I know you can do it I love you

I haven't thought of cutting myself in the shower until recently. I mostly do my cutting at night. I seem to cut in the same area and have 12 scars total so far.

I've done that before but it's kinda weird, even though the skin is softer I never cut deeper than usually, it just doesn't work idk... I suppose I should be happy it doesn't.

No, I just cut my arms as deeply as possible while holding my arm over the bath. Only problem is, I got scared as to how much I was bleeding and rang for help, by the time the police got here I was on the verge of passing out. They laid me out and rapped my arm in a towel and waited for the ambulance to arrive.
I'm not scared of cutting, have done so many times since then and have destroyed the sensory nerves in my arms - had to have muscles repaired on a few occasions.
I am a Manic Depressive with paranoria and mild agarophobia, I hate myself and cut to punish myself. I have a death wish but do not want to be on my own when I go, neither do I want to do something that will make me a paraplegic.
Have done things I shouldn't have survived but have, have damaged my insides with repeated paracetamol overdoses, many I have refused treatment for when they have done blood tests and found I have taken potentially lethal overdoses.
We are all going to die sometime, I do not see the problem with speeding things up, especially when I've had a good life and worked hard for things, but everything was taken away when the life long Mental Health thing came to the fore and was sectioned. Have nothing left now.

thanks for all of your comments

99% of the time, I cut in the shower. I started doing this when I was like.. 12 or 13 probably. I've heard it's more dangerous, I'll get into the details of that in a sec, but I started doing it because of easier clean up, no one will walk in on me, etc.
Now, here's why you shouldn't cut in the shower or bath or water or steam of any kind.
Your skin becomes a lot less elastic when you're in a hot shower or bath, and therefore is easier to cut. Easier does not mean better. This is really dangerous because you can hurt yourself a lot worse than you intended without even trying. You can bleed worse than you would if you were not in the shower or bath and, in the worst case scenario, go into shock if you bleed too much.

I'm sorry if it comes off as hypocritical because I said that I cut in the shower too. Just keep in mind that I'd rather sound like a hypocrit and have you know the facts and stay safe! Also, I'm recovering and haven't cut in a little over a month.
