First Time

[OnceMoreWithFeeling]

I cut the first time the other day, I was really upset and cut the inside of my leg, and have cut my shoulders and bieceps. It makes me feel much better to see the blood and the opening. I have tried running and other physical actives but nothing felt this way. Does this feel the same way for everyone? And why is this happening to me?

Yes, cutting does make you feel much better there and then. But it's dangerous, and leaves marks. You should really try to find some alternatives!

Also, if you have just started, STOP NOW!!! While you still can! Each time you cut, it becomes harder to quit!

what were you upset about, that made you cut?

It makes me feel much better to see the blood and the opening.

when you cut, your body releases endorphins, these give your body a rush, makes you feel on top of the world, but after, makes to have a crash that will affect you.

look at the annoucement at the top of the forum, for alternatives and way to distract yourself. While you've only just started, I advise you to stop while you still can. You'll get addicted, want it each and everyday, have scars, cuts. You'll be lying an hiding from the people you love and care most about, you'll become secretive, won't want to do anything you'd usually do, you'll always be watching your back thinking "oh no..did they see, what if they question me.." once addicted it's very very hard to get out of.

ok, no matter how horrible the problem is, hurting yourself doesn't solve anything. stop now while you can, before you cant stop. seriously, it can be really dangerous, and it causes more problems than it solves.

PM me if you ever need to talk about it.

yeah, i mean i wish someone gave me this advice when i first started, so i guess i know what it's like, so i can give proper advice, considering i've been through it :P

so stop NOW before it's too late

[OnceMoreWithFeeling]

Thanks I will try to.

As everyone else has said, the more you do it the harder it is to stop, it becomes like an addiction.
Its really not worth it in the end, although it may seem like it at the time
Good luck
