How can you deal with wanting to cut yourself because you're mad at youself for cutting?

Question:

Answers:
This is something that you really need to take up with a professional counselor and not with a bunch of strangers on the Internet. The advice given here is not professional. Talk to your parents, clergyman, or a school counselor and they can refer you to a therapist.

Get rid of the knife.

i used to cut myself and you just look at yourself in the mirror and say that you can be a better person than what you are now and i havent done it since then.

and even if you think about doing it, just know that you are making yourself better, no doctors or shrinks can fix you, only you can.
so just have confidence in yourself that you can do it.

if you have any more questions then just email me back at new_big_sis13@yahoo.com.
hope to talk to you soon!

This is an unresolved anger issue. I had a friend who "cut" frequently before discovering the reasons for her anger. She was angry at her mother who stood by and allowed her father to abuse her sexually while doing nothing. When my friend identified the source of her anger, she was able to stop the self-destructive behavior.

Just imagine the horrible scars you will end up having forever!
I use to cut and burn myself and now i have hidious scars that I am truely embarrased about.

I hate it when that happens....I force myself to take an ice shower instead...I find it hard to feel mad at myself just for taking a freezing cold shower whether I do it to punish myself for cutting or not.

dude i am 13 and i used to do that too. it kinda got addicting and i wanted to do it more and more but one day i decided to stop cuz i noticed it wsnt right. instead i carry around a rubber band on my wrist everywhere(different colors matching my outfit? but yeah everytime i feel like cutting i snap the rubber guy hard and it works. email me if you need more or something d_playa_dude@yahoo.com

see, it's all a vicious cycle and very hard to break. It happens to me a lot, too. But, it doesn't make sense, and it won't help. Let it slide, or tell someone your effing pissed, cos obviously you are. cutting is so not worth anything anymore, it's only made my life harder in the long run.

Try not to cut yourself any more may be that's the problem.

I think that you should think about something that you would NOT be mad at yourself for doing and do that instead of cutting yourself. If you like nature, then perhaps you should consider taking a walk in a park or planting either flowers or a garden in your yard, for example.

Ellie, please stop, someone you may or may not rember wil contact you tomarrow to talk about this.

this is fairly interesting.
apparently it's more common now than it was in the past.
however, it's definitely not good for you.
there should be a psychologist, or counselor, at school.
if not, you might ask a teacher that you trust.

it would be inappropriate for me to guess what or why.
but i do think you can work through it.
however, it'll be way easier if you get some help doing so.

good luck.
and have fun at school. ;-)

out of curiosity, i looked at a few of your answers.
you're pretty reasonable, and bright.
you know how, when some people are not very nice, and you really don't care if they do dumb things.
well that's not you.
really, see if you can find someone to talk to.
sometimes stuff like that is not a lot of fun.
but if you really try, it's really good when you finally figure yourself out.
again, good luck. i really mean it.
