Talk to someone and let your feelings out. You will probably feel better.

Yeah but my feelings are like heavy as always nothing new, it's more like an addiction to me now.. to cut myself.

Matbe try to do something you want to do. Try to think positive!

We cannot give you tips on how to harm yourself, we can only advise you against it. Which, I know isn't what you want because you want to hurt yourself regardless. If you're in a mental institution, you won't get away with it either way, but I'm sure you know that. You need to find something else to replace self harm, if you have a hairband or elastic band and you snap that, that can be used as a replacement.

If you end up doing it you will be there for longer. Talk to someone!

A large amount of things are better than actually harming yourself. What Harley Quinn said above is a good alternative but even better is to speak to someone. Friends, or adults or even the wall, it will get the weight off your chest.

Positive conversation is the best remedy!

I understand it's hard to hear, but make use of your time there and try to get help. Talk to someone. Ask for help. Try the elastic band method, or draw butterflies. Distract yourself. Whatever it takes.

I think almost everyone would agree here to try not to give yourself permanent (?) harm. If you can't stand it, you should look for alternatives like ripping paper, drawing with red pen, using an elastic band and so forth. Talking to people and optimism is also really good. I guarantee you, you regret the first cut.

Thank you and I understand you can't tell me how to self harm myself, that's not what this Forum is about :)
I am trying the elastic band thing right now and it's helping a bit but not very much, it's something. Thank you.

I cut for like 3 years so I already have regretted my first cut, thanks for being conceirned anyway :)

I am trying to draw and colour in things to distract myself and the elastic band is helping a little. thank you.

Thanks everyone.
