i recently grew out my finger nails then cut them into a very sharp point. i stopped self harming but now i scratch myself all the time. it hurts more because of how much i do it but it doesnt feel as good. a few times its started bleeding because i cut deep or peirce my skin.
is this a sign that i don't need to cut (draw blood) or could this turn more series? i need help :(

i stopped self harming
Scratching is still self harming and so it is just as serious as cutting yourself. I'd say it is less dangerous but its still unhealthy. Maybe you dont need to draw blood. Scratching doesn't feel as good because it doesnt release the endorphins. So maybe you just need the pain. Do you feel depressed? numb? non existant?
What it comes down to is that you still can't deal with your emotions in a healthy, safe way.

You still need to cut, this is why you are doing this.
Although you are not drawing blood you are still harming yourself. This is in some ways better than cutting but you still need help for it.
I may have said this before and you may have answered but do you see a counceler?

ok well... i would strongly advise you to see one. They will help you sort out the feelings in your head, you wont have to bang your head, scratch or cut anymore.
Just because the feeling has gone now there is no saying weather it will come back.
Can you tell someone at school, they will be able to help you see one. xx

i could but i don't feel like i can i will try to write poams to my english teacher about it to give her a hint.
i cut my arm a lot today i got extremely mad and i felt like i needed it and i felt little pain which makes me want more, yet at the same time i hate myself for it and now i just want to die. my birthdays tommorow and i only have thoughts like 1 year closer to my death... i'm getting a headache now and feel like shit.
i just want to cut my juguler and take a bath in my blood and fade away...

Hun im sorry you feel like this and im telling you it dosnt feel like it but it will go away. Things are going to get better. Instead of hinting to her, why dont you write a letter to her. This way you can tell her and she may be able to support you.
If you need anything feel free to PM me :) x
