how do you feel when you cut?

how do you feel when you cut?

for some reason when i cut, i feel a sort of sense of control, knowing that i made this problem by myself, so its my own, i have control of somthing. and in a way i'm calm.

i know you just stated why you cut, but what origionally started it? was it that you felt no control over your life and you found it through this? or is it another reason. You really need to find the reason you started this very unhealthy habit and think about it. maybe you're over it now and you're just in a habit thats hard to break. or maybe not. but one way or another you need to ask yourself "why?" and maybe the next time youre about to cut you'll feel that what you're doing really isnt worth it. remember, what you may see as a problem might be easily traded for by the people who live lives where they arent sure if they are going to live through the night.

Annoyance. I don't like to cut, and when I do, I feel really crappy about it. I don't like doing it at all, because it just hurts and ends up getting infected due to my habit of picking at wounds.

I'm trying to stop. Getting counselling, etc.

[Broken]

good, like all my feelings are melting away and i have no cares.

my frustrations are taken away by the concentration of the pain and i don't care

I don't cut. It's silly

I don't cut. It's silly

maybe silly in your eyes, but not ours. to us this is very serious and i know i personally dont appreciate you calling something which is so big a part of my life "silly"

i feel many different things. one of the strongest feelings is reliefe. not like i am purging myself of all the badness, but reliefe that i am back on solid ground again. usually what makes me want to cut is this feeling of being stuck inside myself and not being able to get out and be in control of anything i do - its like someone else is doing things for me...but after i cut i come back to reality. every once in a while cutting pushes me further away from real life but not often enough to make me find a different way of helping myself.

i dont cut i stab myself with knives its really the same thing though

It is silly though. "I have a problem...time to nearly kill myself!"

It's just so...unneeded. If you can't get so and so girlfriend, leave her, go fishing around, there might be a better catch out there. Having family problems? Talk with your parents, say sorry even though they may have pissed you off and then they will say sorry too. I just find self harm and wrist cutting really really...I dunno how to say this...moronic?

Cutting your veins open on your arm should not be something big in your life, your education, health, social and sex life should be big parts of your life. Don't waste time cutting and wiping up blood for countless hours. Go out with your friends and play football, tennis, cricket, go watch a movie, do whatever you need. Just please, for the good of yourself, don't bother with the knife.

i do do stuff w. my friends and stuff i do have fun: cutting is like my other life someone that doesnt do it wouldnt understand. sometimes things arent as easy has talkin to your parent sif your having troule w. them.

mozzaman51:If you can't get so and so girlfriend, leave her, go fishing around, there might be a better catch out there.

but if you really love her/him/it y would u leave it...i cant stop cutting now cause i guess i relied on it to help me threw somethings....if youve been w. someone or something its hard to let go even if its done something bad or it is something bad....its hard...so pleaz dont call something in my life that im trying very hard to get through silly....

i just feel nice wen i cut like warm tingles shoot round my body and the world stops spinnings 4 abit everything is peacful its just nice

Wow. Cutting.

When I cut..I think I feel pain, not the pain from the blade across my skin, but from everything else around me. I feel pain from my break-up, and feel pain for my family.. I feel pain for almost everything.

Afterwards, I feel..lost, and confused. But, sadly, I enjoy the feeling. I enjoy the feeling of blood running down my hand, perhaps because I know..I could control this. Everything else in my life..is out of control. Drinking and cutting are in my control, no one elses'.

[BillyWitchDoctor.com]

so drinking and cutting are in your control, dont u think there are other things that are? nobody controls your mind. if you feel bad or sad about something ur thinking of and cutting is ur first answer think a moment: its ur mind and u DO have control over it so just think of something else. there are so many things u have control over but i dont think u want to see it now because uve for so long thought u have no control so u turn to cutting. i hate to be harsh or even mean, but people have to realize that cutting is useless, pointless and is only hurting u more. For one you now think that one of the main forms of feeling control over urself is to roll a blade over ur arm. 2, ur slicing open ur skin to do that. maybe not for everyone, but for some ur gonna be confused and turn to cutting and ur gonna mess up. and then while you are in cronic blood loss because you did something wrong ur gonna have memories flashing everywhere and ur gonna realize that what ur doing is just supid and you couldve live a much fuller life. you might get help, u might not but for those who didnt, you died there a death by ur own doing. you shared it with nobody but your mind which you made think this was the only way. WHICH U MADE THINK, YOU DO HAVE CONTROL OVER IT!!

[KnivesOfRomance]

Hmmm well that one guy mozzaman51..seems stupid to me. What is he doing on here if he can't accept people with problems? Well anyway...

Whenever I cut, it feels so good. I'm not just doing it out of emotional angst, but because I'm somewhat of a masochist.

The blood dripping down my arms feel sooo fucking good and relaxing..

Plus I think I'm fat...and I hate myself kinda sorta.

how about being raped over and over again fron the time i was 6 until i was 12...is that enought reason for you to want to die? or to want to hurt myself? do us all a favor and dont ever judge us or our actions again. you have no idea why we do the things we do so dont go making assumptions.

oh and BTW...most cutters dont cut to die, they cut to live.

[Oath]

...my mom died wen i was young n i wasnt raped but i was hit punched thrown beaten by my dad...and there were rumors i was being raped and a hole bunch of other stuff that i dont feel like explainin...im sorry 4 what happened to u...

i cut just to let the anger out on me instead of on someone else like my father let his anger out on me....n i cut to live...like it is sed up there ^^^

[marine_sniperman35]

I;ve tried cutting before, but I just cant bring myself to do it. My pocket knife is razor sharp...like i actually shave with it, and i cant bear what it would look like or feel like if i cut myself.

[-Silence]

Like Bri, Relief. I feel like everything has been lifted off of my shoulders for just a little while.

[Evie]

My heart beats faster and adrenaline rushes when I do it. Depending on how I feel it can bring a hard casing of numbness over my heart or make me feel alive, or it can make me feel like I'm releasing all the bad that's in me.....but it's only for a second. Then I feel guilty of this secret
