Is it emo if you cut yourself to see your blood not because you want to die?


why would i want to see my own blood but i do
im not depressed or unhappy or anything i only like seeing it


Answers:    I used to cut myself posterior in the 1970s.

I did it because it made me touch better temporarily. The brain releases endorphins (chemicals that help you promise with physical pain). Depressed relatives figure out that it can make available them a better mood for a little while.

When I worked for a mental hospital we have this one patient (18 year frail girl) who cut herself so many times her body be covered with scar. Somebody asked her why she did it and she said "it's the only time I really get the impression alive."

It's very risky behavior. You could accidentally cut a chief blood vessel and lose a lot of blood, and possible bleed to disappearance. Or you might get an infection. A simple staph or strep infection to be exact untreated can lead to heart plunder or death. Even if these don't come to pass, there is a break that you will develop permanent scar.

I hope you can go to a doctor. When I get put on an antidepressant I quit cutting.
No, it's not emo, it's a short time ago plain stupid.

EDIT: yes, it IS a good answer. It IS stupid, what you're doing. Wake up and smell the intelligence.
i don't know what emo is. is it a synonym for stupid?
