Stupid reasons?

[xXxSuperkittyxXx]

Hi there everyone. Why do you hurt yourself? Whats the stupidest reason you've ever done it?

[Listed MIA]

Why...? that would be a long and complicated answer. Also my reasons kind of change all the time, like right now i basically hate myself so i feel like i deserve to be hurt. Sometimes it's like stress relief and sometimes it's to bring myself back to reality if i am too spaced out.

Once i self harmed because i heard this song i hadn't heard in a while. :confused: that's my stupidest reason.

There's a lot of reasons. Sometimes its because i hate myself, sometimes it's to relieve stress... Sometimes I get these like emotional blocks, I guess you could say, and it starts to drive me crazy and cutting allows me to feel all the emotions I'm suppressing.

Stupidest reason was to make my ex mad/ to make him not cut himself. We were fighting and he was locked in his bathroom and was threatening to cut himself, and I told him if he did it I was going to as well. He said he did it so I ran into the other bathroom and cut myself. Turns out he was lying and hadn't even cut himself.
That whole fight was just stupid as fuck, really. But that's my stupidest reason. To make my bf stop cutting.

[Fractured Silhouette]

To attempt to create an aspect of control over my life, to cope with overwhelming emotions and to suppress anxiety. But there are many reasons.

I cut because I got an email...

[Jimmy Page]

Because my hallucination told me to

[SilentCutter]

I hurt myself because I'm a bad person, and it's the only way to punish myself and because a voice in my head explains to me why i should...

[xXJust Jump ItXx]

Hating myself... guilt... stuff like that.

[Noirtier]

I cut because I hate myself, and to cope with emotions when I have no other way. To relieve stress. I've gone a bit without it now, but we will see how long that lasts.

I do it to calm my mind. I tend to overthink everything and once I get going I get very depressed. When I cut, it's like I leave my body and I don't think about anything but the pain >.< idk what the stupidest reason I've ever cut is. If it's important enough to cut then it's obviously not that stupid, right?

[Ambrosia]

My Stupidest Reason?
I one time cut because I wanted to. I had nothing to make me want to do it but an overwhelming blanket of sadness that made me cut myself.

[Mortal Coil]

The stupidest reason, was because I wanted more scars.

[Jaggg]

well i usually do it cuz my stepdad abuses me n if i dont take my anger ou on myself i take it out on others n its not there fault but sometimes i just feel lik cutting....me n my friend sam use to cut in lunch and science someimes....

[SadisticAngels]

why? to erase mental pain with physical and because i hate myself. worst reason? someone told me to and i listened.

[FullyAlive]

I think the stupidest reason probably cutting because I thought I had to, to be me.

[Kirsi]

My stupidest reason ever was the reason why I tried it my first time. My boyfriend cuts and I always felt so sad for him and I knew it must be pretty bad if he was willing to do something like that. I wondered how it could possibly make him feel better what it felt like what was the attraction. I didn't understand it so I tried it once to see what it was like...stupidest reason ever Instead of helping him stop I started for no good reason and made him have more reasons to be upset. Now I have my own reasons.. but we are both trying to stop.

[xXoblivionXx]

Well I guess this wouldn't be cutting but this is what started my cutting. I was in class and the guy that I really like said that he liked someone else. I didn't know what to do I had to hold all of my emotion in so I took the first thing I saw, a pencil and was scratching my arm with it.

Of course now I have different, better reasons. Even though there is never a good reason to cut.

[Noxail]

This is a hard one :P Well, one, because I loathe myself with every fiber of my being. I hate everything I am, everything I do, I just hate me. Another is because I feel like I have to pay for the pain I've inflicted on others. Basically, because of a past boyfriend, and years of emotional abuse, I have a very twisted view of myself and pretty much think I hurt everyone I meet. This is a major problem for me sense I hate hurting people, which resulted in a strong self hatred and in turn a self-harm addiction. Another reason, is my Panic Disorder. I go into severe panic attacks, and the only way for me to bring myself out of one is to cut. The pain draws my attention and brings me back into reality.

The stupidest reason I've ever cut was probably because I felt like people wouldn't care about me if I didn't have a reason for them to care about me. The first three months of my cutting, the only reason I told anyone how many, how deep, and why, was so they would waste twenty minutes of their life thinking about me. After that, it became a factor of my own safety. I knew that I couldn't control myself when I went into a panic attack, so the only reasonable thing to do was to bring myself out of it, and deal with damage control. As of a few months ago, we found out a close friend, actually, my bestfriend, could bring me out of a panic attack easily, all he had to do was talk to me. :rolleyes: ~Holli

[Love.Hate]

why i do it? because it makes me feel better

most stupid reason i have done it? because i felt crap and wanted to make myself feel worse

[BrittneyB]

There are lots of reasons why... for me its a control thing. Like it's an outlet for anger and frustration, especially when I feel helpless. Then once I start I have to cut again because I feel the need to even out the cuts, blood, and pain. Its hard to explain, I just feel...better when I used to self harm
Stupidest reasons got to be because I wanted to draw but I didn't have a pen so... stars on my wrist instead! And then another time when I cut the word emo because my best friend called me that.
Oh btw I am in no way trying to encourage it. To anyone reading this, please don't do it. Talk to someone, more people are willing to listen then you think.

[Perfectly Flawed]

The stupidest reason was because someone didn't believe the scars were real and wanted proof... I gave them what they asked for.

[RedViper]

My stupidest reason? I missed the pain..

[Snookers]

I once took a razor and made three short lines on my left breast because I find it sexy as hell xD I took the idea form Marilyn Manson's (s)AINT video.No scars were left however.

[LikeAJay]

Because i feel like a peice of shit.Like im fat as fuck and just stuff. stupidest reason has to be cause my sister left or ran away.I gess i like her as a sister fter all. DO I?

[XxNINJAxX]

If I were to tell you why I cut be prepared for a long text. But to summarise it I mainly cut because I was bullied since year two to year seven (current year). And the stupidest reason I've cut for is because I was missing cutting...

[TwilightFan]

I mean, I always hurt myself because of stupid things, like once, I forgot my homework and I was so sad, so I went to the girls' bathroom at my school and cutted. Sometimes I cut only because I have a bad day and I'm in a bad mood. But when I cut, it doesn't seem like a stupid reason. When I cut, I'm really hurt and at the end I always cut because I'm sad or hurt or angry. That's always the reason.

[World Eater]

Rage.

[Desuetude]

My more stupid reason was the same as Alex, I wanted more scars. I've used that a few times.
