Getting Rid Of My Razors

[Punk_Kid]

Any tips on how to get rid of my razors? I use them for shaving so I can't just throw them away. Is there any way to alter them so that I can't use them for cutting but can still shave with them?

No, but you can try and alter your mind.
Don't look at them as a source of self harm any more. Train your brain to ignore it.
As for your suggestion of actually altering them, no matter what you do to it, if you WANT to cut, you'll take anything apart and use it.
It's getting around not wanting to cut. If you can do that, battle won - it won't matter if you shave or prep food with sharp knives or whatever.

Hope this helps.

How do you use them?

If you use the disposable heads, I'd imagine not taking the blades out would help, or using fully disposable ones that are barely sharp anyway if you manage to crack them open (which is almost impossible, I've tried). There's also some type of foam-like stuff you can use for shaving. But I don't know if that works for facial stuff, and it's pretty girl-marketed...

Fact has a point though. If you get desperate enough, you'll use anything, it won't matter. You'll take that rusty nail from the wall and stab yourself if you don't have the willpower to convince yourself not to. Believe me, I've gotten that bad, and at that point, truthfully, it's better to cut with something safer and sanitary if you're going to do it...

Thanks. I've been trying to hammer that into my head and I think it might be working a little bit:D :yes:

I hope you're successful, I'm sure you'll feel so much better.

Lol, I just hit 600 too! :P

Umm... something on-topic maybe... :rolleyes:

Yep, I've found pure willpower to be the only thing to help me through urges. As much as you could isolate yourself from razors and knives, at the end of the day it's only yourself that you need to get over it.

Other than trying the completley disposable ones, you'll have to try and use your will power not to cut with them
But glad to hear your staying focused on it, you can do it
Good luck
