id say someone catching you and giving you help is an answered prayer,

then you're a fucking fool

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

no but you might be if you think that

[Waiting]

talking to me or him?

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

him. although there are definite benifits for getting help

[Anonymous]

how coudl you cut yurself? just the thought makes me wanna die! i mean, it dun help anything, wouldnt it make you feel a shitload worse?

[-Silence]

You obviously don't understand.

It may not help in the long run, but, it just makes everything seems "live-able" again. It provides a release, it also helps with the feeling of being numb. For me anyways.

I don't recommend trying it though, its a horrible addiction to get yourself stuck in.

ok..............a release fro emotional pain into a fucking unberable physical pain?

[-Silence]

Yes, I'd rather take it out on me then worry or get depressed or angry. To me, emotional pain is unbearable.

[Anonymous]

physical pain makes me wanna kill myself its horrible.

i can deal with physical pain a lot better than mental pain, and that's part of the reason I cut sometimes, it also just provides this temporary moment of... relief, like you can't really think of anything else and everything is alright for a few seconds. Every once in a while, I'll do it as punishment but that's rare. I don't think I've ever been caught.... Maybe. There was this one time when I was in Trig class and I was wearing this kinda small shirt and I looked over and across the room this guy seemed to be staring at my arm and I looked and notice that one of my cuts and some scars were showing on my upper arm, but I pulled my sleeve back over them and I looked back over and he wasn't looking but when class got out, he was looking at me kinda wierd...

That's a good thing, it's a hard thing to overcome.

I got caught in my speech class by a teacher...i had a wrist band on to cover up the scars though but i wanted to do it again cuz i had just broken up with my bf...so i took the wristband off and started and the teacher walked up and then i had to talk to the school counceler and then i had to tell my mom...but i still do it....and i dont' think my mom even cares..or anyone else for that mattter

[-Silence]

Whoa, they caught you while you were doing it and you didn't get Baker-Acted or got a phone call to your parents?

[LoSt_n_the_WoRlD]

Yea, i did....but i guess my councelor wanted me to tell my mom...but he still called her...weird..o well

[<-Dying_to_Live->]

well he wanted you to have the chance to break it to her yourself, but probably realized you werent going to so he called to make sure

[LoSt_n_the_WoRlD]

Yea, but i did tell her

[-Silence]

Can I ask how she reacted?

Hope everything's okay. :)

[LoSt_n_the_WoRlD]

Well, she kinda freaked out and was crying and everything....but now idk if she cares anymore..shows how much she cares

No one understands why others cut, except the people who do it. Some people are so depressed that they begin to feel numb and hate themselves even more. Cutting helps with both numbness and punishment. Once you become numb, you just want to feel - anything - just to know you're alive. Watching blood pour down your skin is a better reminder than it sounds.

[strongbad4500]

i love the trickeling of blood the taste of blood the look of being covered in blood

My friend.... he hid my scalpel.

Hey want to share this because i got caught . I have cut in the pass but this one was serious then the last because i have scars now on my upper shoulder. Here is my story i worked after school but i had a rough night at work and rough day at school so grab my knife and started cutting to song by red hot chili peppers : soul to squeeze and cut over and over and over mor then 20 times. I wore my longsleve paint ball shit but the cuts still bleed because it was like 3 in the moring when i did it and then at school in my american sign langauge class 2 i asked to go to the bathroom because i wanted to see if they were bleeding which they were still. Nvere got caught until the scab over that weekend and i had another bad so i grab my knife that sunday late around 2 am and started to cut on top of them and slice way the scab which the healed around tuesday. THEn i went to school wednseday and toild one of my friends what happen and she turned me. My Basic skill teacher that i had my 9th garde cam and got me from the library and went to the secuirty office where the door was closed and i was shaking because i had feeling what it was about and he told me that heard people talk about me cutting and i didn't say anything untilk he asked if i had marks and then i got tears and my eyes and showed my upper arm and he lsaid this iisn't you why and and all the questions and i explain what happen and that i was scaered and i got my stuff search and everything because they wanted to make sure that i din't have my knife but i din't i told the turth that i threw it because i want to stop. I want help and they told me that it could be reported but because it was my first time of them hearing about it they were like look we are going to talk to your parents but before we call we want you to explain what happen and be honest and we will call aroun 3:40pm -4:00 and because i had club meeting and then they told me after the club meeting go home. Which i id i told my friend what happen and he understand. Becuase of it I will be senior this year and the school will be watching more closely plus i quite because i couldn't deal with school and job at the same time. So i told my parents and everything i didn't get punish because the scars were my punishment and pllus i had to go to thearapy which has help but now i have scar and i have cut since becuse i remeber the marks on my arm. so the school told me if i get stop to see how i'm doing be honest and they will listen and not blow me off plus they know i'm going to be senior so they told me not screw up because i'm 18 they can kick me out but this is making me work on not cutting plus a rubber helps if i get urge because it flick it but it helps because i not causing harm but it gets me not to do it .

I hope this helps people that cut to quite i have not cut for 3months and its going to contuine where i don't cut.

[-Silence]

Wow, way to go!

Depends who catches you. Me it was mom and she was very angry - but I guess it was because she was scared and cared about me.

The girl I posted the book about (The Naked Bird Watcher) got caught by the right person who then helped her. So if you are going to get caught I figure it needs to be by the RIGHT person!

That book made an awful lot of sense to me and it was the first thing I've read that I could relate to. I used to get so fed up with folk telling me why or what the reason for what I was doing. That is they thought they knew it all but hadn't actually a clue as they had only 'studied' the subject of self-harm. I forgot to say there is another book that goes with The Naked Bird Watcher and it was written by the girl's mother - she sounds pretty cool and wrote a really good part on self-harm which would help an awful lot of parents and professionals. It's 'To Walk on Eggshells' ISBN 0954809211 I think it would be be very helpful for parents and the prefessionals like to read that book so they could understand better. Both books are really easy reading by the way. the site is www.thecairn.com or get them on amazon etc.

I haven't cut in ages which is good but I know it wouldn't take much to trigger it so I am very careful and read these books if I feel vulnerable.

the first people to cetch me were 3 of my friends...it was in math class...and we had go done early so we just hung out and it was during my thug stage and I cut thug life into my fingers and I kept trying to hide it after I did it and then one of them pulled my arm and my sleeve of my hoodie came up and they freaked out and started asking me questions and Mr. Biggers was right next to us at his desk and I almost started crying and then I just started trying to change the subject and Kenna, who was one of them every chance she gets she trys to see my wrists when Im with my parents so theyll see. But since the finger thing its gotten worse. My other friends well one of them always asks if I still do and I lie but on quizzes and stuff I tell the truth. They know I still do and the talk about me behind my back...but Ive been 6 days clean so...yeah.

[*-tick tock-*]

i got caught stabbing a box of stuffed animals by my dad.. i got caught with a mark by my boyfriend.

he made me promise to not do it again. i said yes.. and then freaking did it again a couple months later
WHAT A SELFISH BITCH I WAS. when i did it. i cried and cried and cried i felt so terrible..... i lied to him..and hurt him... and he was telling me about how he could trust me..but still pulled thru trusting me which i appreciate so much.

so i told him to just trust me.. i will not cut myself again..

i havent done it since then :P i am SOOOO PROUD to say that...
last thing i actually DID was get something and kinda slammed (not really slammed) into my arm and left a big ass nasty bruise and hit my hit agains t the wall.. it was scary..
but i cant continue to do that.. especially since the head thing was recent.. kinda
i promised him i wont cut... i wish i could promise him i wont hurt myself... never did.. but im TRYING .. not to do that if i need to cry..just cry... dont hurt myself cuz ill regret it later
