I cant help it anymore im just falling apart and slowly fading. I used to cut myself on a good basis, but i had stopped for a while and started useing rubber bands so i wouldnt scar and it would help me get rid of the urges to cut, but i feel that thats not going to work anymore i need to get rid of this pain fast and i dont know how.....

Okay hunny, go to your freezer and get some ice and a tea towl / hankie / hand towel, and then go somewhere secluded.
What you can try is to grab 2-3 pieces of ice in your hand and clench to a fist and keep it there til you cant stand anymore or it melts. I tried it and it helped a bit :)

Dunno if the above is the best thing to do; putting ice directly onto the skin isn't a good idea, you can damage skin easily by doing that :(

@ AllyKat, try spilling out all of your problems to us here at VT, there are tons of people who will listen to you and loads of people who will help you :)

Alternatively, you could go see your doctor, they'd be able to offer professional advice / prescribe medication to help

Talk to a school counselor or your best friend.
Pick a random day of the week to do something fun for yourself, bring a friend if you like.
Try to keep yourself occupied so you don't think about the pain.

I know how hard it is. 2years of chronic depression, and i've relapsed 7times. It's not going to be easy, but it is possible. I know you can do it.
Talk to me if you ever need anything, I'm here for you.

well to b honest the ice thing is better than cutting and still sends the same sensis to your body (relatively)
