Cutting yourself is cool ... and if I may say so, SEXY! But if you must stop, try cutting someone else.
Well i dunno tell someone close to you or write in a jounal or diary...thats my advice
Talk to a psychologist, sure they're expensive but what's more important?
start taking drugs and drinking alcohol
duh!
you need professional help but you have to be willing to admit it and if you don't want to tell it to anyone then assume responsibility for yourself and stop harming your body.... try to channel what bothers you through sport or something you are really passionate about in life.
You have a serious problem and you need immediate help. If you live with your parents you need to tell them right away and if you are an adult you need to seek therapy for it.
This is not a healthy way to live and is a symptom of severe mental distress.
Get psychiatric help immediately.
The best way to recover from doing this to yourself is "Counselling"... You have to realize that this isnt normal, and it does nothing to help you, it only leaves scars that you will have for the rest of your life!
Do yourself a favor and get help, you deserve it!!
You need to find someone you trust to talk to. You need to talk with them and let them know why your doing it. Obviously you have something going on in your life and you need someone to help you. You can email me if you ever want to talk.

u need to go see a councilor to figure out how to solve what is bothering you. there is no shame in going to a shrink, the shame is in not trying to help yourself.
I have a friend that does that too and nothing seems to help her, not even the thought of her own children losing their mother one day if she doesn't stop. So this sickness is really confusing to me. Unfortunately, you have to seek professional help. You will probalby never stop doing it until you get to the bottom of what is really making you cut yourself. Counselors can usually get to the bottom of it and try to help you stray from those unfortunate feelings. Be careful, my friend now has scars all up and down her arms and when we see bandages on her, we know what the hell she was doing, and we don't baby her anymore. She knows what is right and wrong. It is a lack of attention I think. Find someone that gives you good attention. Your man/girl, or even children should help curve your need to do that. I hope you get help. This is a really difficult illness/disease that plagues individuals that have lack of self worth. Find it within yourself.
i understand i cut too... i no its hard to stop and most people dont understand it takes the pain away and focuses it on something else... but i just think of what the people i love would say and d if i actually got put in the hospital and go from there... if you need someone to talk to email me at blckfairygirl93@yahoo.com or im me at: blackfairygirl93 on yahoo IM and tell me that i answered you on youqa.coms or watever...
The problem is that you really do need to see a counselor for help. These are not issues that a person can fix themselves. Usually there is something else going on that either needs worked out or corrected before this behavior can be brought under control. You deserve some credit by recognizing that you need to stop. Now you need to take the next step and realize that this can happen to anyone not just you and that it will require getting help from a profesional to correct it. Please, please, please do not wait. If you can't take it to your parents then take it to your doctor, or a teacher or someone who can assist in getting you hooked up with the right people. If not that then look for a free clinic in your area where you can seek help annonomusly. But what ever you do please go get help.
Best of Luck to you.
this is very serious that you are cutting yourself - it shows that emotionally you are having trouble expressing your feelings so cutting helps you alleviate the build up of pressure / stress /fear that you are feeling.
You really should go for help - you can get medication and CBT cognitive behavior therapy (because this has become habit forming)
try taking omega 3 and exercising and screaming in the shower but mostly get help
Seek Professional Help!! Right Away! Don't Wait!!
Darlin, talk to a councelor.
Google a search for mental health hotline for your state (ex. California Mental Health Hotline) they usually have a toll free number.
If your cutting yourself you might be in emotional pain over something and feel out of control. I had thought why do people cut themselves?? And one day I was so angry and hurt over something in my family that keeps happening again and again to each of us...abuse and we all have tried to stop the person and he always gets off with a slap on the wrist or less. So I felt like I was going to explode and the thought of why people cut themselves was clear. Fustration+pain+no control over a situation+anger+low-self-estee... possible self-abuse. You do need help stopping if your cutting and not just thinking it. Try a counselor at a local church or at your school they often give counsel for free or a small charge and it is done in confidence so you can have privacy. Take care of your-self get help and I am sure you and god can get you healed up. Melissa
Please search for this in search for questions above, and check for my answers. I, unfortunately, don't have the time right now to find and retype my previous answer in. I think you may have a blood sugar imbalance that makes the brain want to do drastic things to get sugar (fuel).
If you don't want to do that, check out www.hufa.org for information on low blood sugar, and try it for 2 weeks (the eating of high protein meals and elimination of all sugar from your diet). It may help.
My thoughts are with you.
use a dull knife
fruit cake
Why are you afraid to tell anyone- that might be your only way to get help. Are you on any medications? There were two times in my life when I either cut myself or wanted to cut myself. Once when I was put on a new anti-depressant and once when I tried to ween myself off of my ant-depressants. If you don't get some kind of help you will just keep cutting- do you really want your body all cut up?
If you cut too deep in just the right spot, you are bound to stop-permanantly.
call 1-800 dont cut.
