There are much better methods of release than cutting and burning yourself. Not only do you run the risk of infection but both leave, nasty, obvious scars that people will notice. I suggest you find some other way to cope.

You need to seek help. Is there any trusted adults or friends you can talk to? It may be a good idea to see a counsellor at school, or a doctor. They will be able to give you options. In the meantime try to find some alternatives. What helped me is sliding a rubber band onto my wrist and snapping it against my skin whenever i had an urge. Or I ripped paper up, because I found I needed to keep my hands busy. If you need to talk feel free to Pm me, whenever you feel you need to. Hope this helps

maybe you should see a coucellor about this. there is always an alternative to self harm. there are always other ways of coping. try to destract yourself whenever you get an urge, like doing something creative, or writting down how you feel.

Maybe if it's the pain you feel like you want, you could wear an elastic band like desolation said. it worked for me. i only resantly discovered this distraction, but it really does help.

I understand what you're going through at the moment, so if you ever need to talk, just PM me, i'm always here and i always reply if you ever want to talk about if or just rant.

well what you should do is the obvious stop... but yes i know how hard it is to stop. but to stop you must want to stop. once you have that then will power wil help you. however you may need more hlpe then just will power, so yuou may need ot talk to an adult about gettng help. i know that isnt the easiest thigns... but thye can hlep you... in the end wouldn't it be worth a non self harm life? to not wake up and to go about your day not wanting to hurt yourself ? can you imagine that life? i know its hard to... but ithat life does exsist! have faith dear friend because there is a light at the end of the tunnel a way out of self harm.
there are ways to avoid, distraction
when you feel hyper and not able to focus, run, play fast music, dace, scream
you want to hurt- run, do sit ups, exercise (hurts but in a good way), squeeze a froze orange, hold an ice cube, rubber band
whe you want to see blood- food coloring, red marker
when you want to see scars- henna tatoos, red marker,
when you go numb- cold water, dump the cold water on your head (this works for me, gets rid of urge fast), ice, feel thigs around you like clothing
when you are sad- liste to upbeat music, call a friend, cry, eat choclate
whne you are angry- run, exercise, scream, lisen to happy music, punch a pillow

how this helps PM me if you ever want to talk

I feel this forum will not provide you adequate help that you should receive.

You need to be able to spill your guts out and discuss it on a more personal level. Feel free to PM or IM me.
