I have tryied to cut but I cant find any thing that goes through the skin so then I did it different things like putting a ting that was hot and tryin to like burn it and then cut it and things and its just bugging me nothing will go through the skin for blood(im doing it on my foot) and yes I know good but my ex said it helps with stress

Please don't hurt yourself! It doesn't help you. It's not good for you. Find something else to deal with stress. Talk to a therapist, or a best friend or parent, or get involved in a fun activity, just please don't hurt yourself.

It does relieve stress, I won't lie about that. But it's very addicting, and you'll end up wishing you hadn't started. Please try to just talk to someone instead of figuring out new ways to break skin :(

Worst. Idea. Ever.

If you're not hooked don't get hooked.

In my personal opinion, this was absolutely awful of your ex to tell you it relieves stress. That's basically encouraging you to do it, and in no way whatsoever is that good. Whether not it's true, doesn't matter - you don't just tell someone it relieves stress like it's alright.

Do not do it. The more you do it, the more hooked you will get and the more you will look back wishing you hadn't. It's a god awful addiction that becomes impossible to live without. There are so many better ways to cope with stress - music, safe exercise, talking/hanging out with friends, reading, etc. The fact that you're not getting the results you wished might be a sign not to do it - your body doesn't like it and want you to do it.

It's only going to harm you, and I strongly urge you to stop while you can. Feel free do drop me a PM if you need anything. x

its as bad as an alcohol or drugs addiction once it gets into your brain. it becomes the norm and you dont see an issue with it but there really is nothing good about it except if it is the only thing keeping you here which it obviously isnt so please stop before you start to do yourself proper damage or leave yourself with scars that will affect you for life
