hailey rose, i’m not one of those internet weirdos or anything, but somehow i came across your questions about cutting. in answering that, i want you to push aside all of your family and society’s preconceptions and give marijuana a try. you should also research on the internet the many many benefits the “magic medicine” can have. i cant remember the exact website but there was an elaborate study and questoinaire to pot smoking people around the country and they talked with a bi-polor man who had a wife and children and smoked pot because there wasn’t a single medicine out there that could control his anger. i guarantee you will see results if you give smoking a try. studies prove that it relaxes your body., you will not feel violent, in fact, the magic miracle drug show you how to appreciate and love yourself.

i’m saying this in all honesty for you. give it a try. i’m a college sophomore and i’ve seen a lot of stuff, cutting included, and i dont want you to get caught up in pain to solve problems. weed works soo much better!! good luck, your life is about to turn around for the better, i guarantee.

cutting is one of the hardest things to stop, ive been doing it for a good 4 years and the most ive gone is 8 weeks without cutting , but now im back to doing it everyday. ways which i got told to stop are the ice cube trick , which i know for a lot of people have helped, it didnt work for me but give it a go tho!!also writting things down can help , talking to people can help but i no from experience that people can give up on you, its best to find someone who is going through the same thing and that way you can help each other. i find councilers dont help becasue they patronise you, and mine gave me ideas what to cut myself with, probaly not on purpose tho, but for a lot of people councilling does help!! other methods that i have tried are pulling out my hair whihc is good cus u get the pain and it dosnt leave scars, also i will bruise myself which dosent leave scars either.

i hope you can find away of stopping , ive lost many friends through self harm adn now becasue of my scars some people wont talk to me and judge me straight away. there is a difernet method for everyone i hope u find one for you, and if you need to talk then i am here for you!! and also i no from experince that self harm can lead to suicide and trust me you dont want to bring that onto urself and family!!

ok i cut.. i stoped for 4 months and then i have mental issues from a horrible childhood of a mother with mentl problem so i cut after my grandpa died becuz i loved him more then i loved life.. I cut for many differnt reason as the years go on.. I have been doing it for 2 yrs going on 3 .. i stoped becuz one day my friend slaped me in the face over and over and tiold me drugs and cutting not saying your on drugs is not heathy and they gave me advice

  1. Write the feeling down
  2. Call someone if you feel like cuttin
  3. Scream yell let it out in a heathy manner ..

Its hard to cope with life .. for me those things do not work

But maybe it will work for you ..

but if you need someone to talk to i am here
