From the way you explained it it sounds horrible. I am not saying this to be mean but maybe you should see psychiatrist. It may help you to be able to talk about your problems to someone. I hope I dont get cussed at for writing this but I really am not trying to be smart about it. I just want to help.

Emo (pronounced /ˈiːmoʊ/) is a style of rock music which describes several independent variations of music with common stylistic roots.

well emos dont cut themselves...everybody who says they do are retarded...emo is mainly a style of music...it was envented a long time ago 'emotional hardcore music' is were it came from... its also a style. just like punk, goth, prepp, whatever...its another music genre and fashion style thing. the style is usually black hair half over the face, tight black pants, ect,ect. but emo people wear other things ot can look completly different to the steriotype everyone thinks is right. as well as that is also used as an insualt by simple minded idiotic twats!

Ugh...y? F*ck...y? why are there so many kids sayin they are emo? Or thinking that you can BE emo?

Emo stands for Emotional Punk, a branch off of Punk Rock in the mid-80s, and early 90's. A MUSIC GENRE.

you CAN'T BE EMO. THIS IS NOT AN OPINION, ITS A FACT. STOP CALLING URSELVES OR OTHERS EMO. The whole idea of a stereotype of a person who cuts themselves(a lie) listens to dark music(also a lie) and dresses in the style now known as 'emo' is the most retarded idea I have ever heard of.

Hope I made some sense

well I do believe emo, is not merely about those 'weird or the outcast' type of person.
its really on your personality.. being 'emo'tional, is what it is..usually, emo's are really having those different kind of problems which made there view in every aspect of life a litle bit dramatic, but you cant blame them cause its their own choice. I tried to be one before, its not about the fashion, its more about the feeling, how you handle and carry yourself, I just realized that I cant really be an 'emo' cause I cant stand a day without even trying to smile..hope this helps!! lol

Emo (pronounced /ˈiːmoʊ/) is a style of rock music which describes several independent variations of music with common stylistic roots. As such, use of the term has been the subject of much debate. In the mid-1980s, the term emo described a subgenre of hardcore punk which originated in the Washington, D.C. music scene. In later years, the term emocore, short for 'emotive hardcore', was also used to describe the emotional performances of bands in the Washington, D.C. scene and some of the offshoot regional scenes such as Rites of Spring, Embrace, One Last Wish, Beefeater, Gray Matter, Fire Party, and later, Moss Icon. (In more recent years, the term 'emotive hardcore' entered the lexicon to describe the period.)

Starting in the mid-1990s, the term emo began to refer to the indie scene that followed the influences of Fugazi, which itself was an offshoot of the first wave of emo. Bands including Sunny Day Real Estate and Texas Is the Reason had a more indie rock style of emo, more melodic and less chaotic. The so-called 'indie emo' scene survived until the late 1990s, as many of the bands either disbanded or shifted to mainstream styles. As the remaining indie emo bands entered the mainstream, newer bands began to emulate the mainstream style. As a result, the term 'emo' became a vaguely defined identifier rather than a specific genre of music

Most people think it's a depressed person who cuts their wrist and wants to die, but that's not true. Just like people are gothic, punk, or prep, some are emo. And I am proud to say, I'm Emo!!!
