I might cut.

[JoshDude]

Well I live in Australia and we get an end of year report card showing how well we did in every subject of both homework and classwork. Classwork also covers exams and so on. Anyway, you get a rating out of 4.0. 4.0 is the worst possible point average, where as 1.0 is the best. Each years i get around a 2.2 which isnt too bad. But this year if i do much worse and my dad punishes me in anyway, i might try cutting.

I already feel depressed all the time, mainly because i get in trouble a lot at school and so on. My friend tryed cutting, and he said it was really good.

So what do you guys think i should do?

[schrei jess]

Do not cut. It is highly addictive and will destroy your life.

Ive been cutting for three years, last night is when I realized how bad Ive let things become. I almost had a panic attack because I lost my pocket knife that I use to cut with, and I was searching for hours until I finally found the blade of an exacto knife to use.

Do you want that to be you? Crying and hyperventilating because you lost the pocket knife you always used to cut?

Please dont do it, I 100% gaurantee you will get addicted. It will ruin your life. Any friends or realtionships you had before - will never be the same. You will forever hide and live cut to cut, always planning how to keep it hidden, finding things to use, bandaids etc.

Please dont make that first cut...

[ithoray]

Yeah dude. Don't start cutting. It's just like smoking, one and you can't stop....

I have one thing to say and that is that don't start. You may think "oh im depressed, things are about to get worse. I might try this, it seems to make some people feel better" But all it does is sends on a constant downward spiral.

I don't think that you should say "Yeah, I'm depressed, so I saw in internet
that people cut when they are depressed, so I'm gonna do it too!!" I think you just need to take it easy, and just relax... if you really need to cut, I think it'll come up naturally, even if you shouldn't do it!

Exactly what I was trying to say.

Hehe ditto for what LostMyWay said

It is a bit naive to think that the very first time you cut you will get addicted. It is an addictive behaviour, however, it only becomes an addiction after a while.

Very,Very true mate,and thanks for the quote.It is true that I do not cut anymore. Although a few years back,I did get addicted and I hated myself for it. But those scars healed awhile back. But the one ugly scar still lays on my wrist...Thats when I quit...I went to the FUCKING hospital because of it. So do not freaking start. SMILE



Btw please gve reputation :) if you want hehehe

[schrei jess]

Naive? Okay whatever, all I know is that I got addicted when I started. I was so scared at first, making small cuts on my fingers with a razor, feeling pretty stupid. I got the guts to use needles and did some cutting on my wrists, more like scrapes but they helped. Here I am now, three years later cutting with x-acto knife blades, basically the equivalent of one of those old fashion razor blades, I am addicted, cant stop if I wanted to.

[terith]

:HUG: Jessi,sorry about your accdiction. And wo said the naive thing.Because I am not seeing it

[Sapphire]

Addiction is the absolute need to repeat an action. Nothing can take your mind off of it. You can't go without it. You need it then and there. It can't wait. You are desperate for it. No one can get truly addicted to SI after their very first time. Their first experience may increase the likelihood of repeat episodes, but it is the ocurrence of these repeat episodes that give way to addiction.

I am not talking out of my arse. I have been there and done it.

[schrei jess]

You arent the only one, so stop trying to act like you are.

[Sapphire]

I wasn't acting like I am the only one. I simply stated that I have been through it too and preventing being slated for "talking about things I know nothing about".

[kragy]

just dont cut (full stop). just dont do it , ive thought about it but i didnt, you dont need to cut and im sure if you do you will wish you had not, insteed of being sad try to smile, laugh etc... it might make you not to want to cut, but really it isnt worth it. so just stop and think long and hard before you do and if you decide to cut then well you decided to do it. but plz no one should cut

[Coesistere]
