It is very unfortunate when people feel so emotionally shattered they resort to physically injuring themselves.

A person engaging is such activities should find a close friend, or counselor to confide in about the matters that brought out the behaviour.

In addition strenuous athletic workouts may be of some benefit. Running 2 miles each day for example is a great way to relieve stress, blow off steam, tire yourself out enough to sleep (usually) or maintain a healthy appetite. Doing Volunteer work may also help promote a sense or self-worth, and selflessness sometimes things don't seem so bad when you're helping someone who can't even move, or see, or take a simple walk.

Amen to that. A lot of people resort to destructive tendencies, whether that's cutting, drug abuse, violence, gangs, whatever, because they are bored. Some people are masochists and just find it fun, but usually, it's because of depression/other problems. Personally, I'm against medication, but if it's that bad, you should be talking to someone in the first place before you resort to pills or mutilation. Sometimes you can't talk to someone, and that's another problem all together. Speaking from experience, you don't want people to be harassing/interrogating you about this and that, whatever the problem might be. I have ICD/OCD, and it's more stressful trying to hide my problems than just telling someone and getting help.

It's even more awesomer if you use a ball-peen hammer.

I'm totally down with self-cutting, as long as you do it in a warm bath, and pull a toaster in with you just for good measure.,

Vanity attempts at suicide doesn't get you anything. Deal with your problems instead of pining away for some outside Leviathan to step in and make everything better.

One set of parents should be enough. If yours aren't cutting it, get some people in your life who give a crap what happens to you, and try not to drive them away.

Err, I'm not a fan?

One of my best friends cut herself when she was younger, and it wasn't so much a cry for attention as it was a way to try to "help herself" when she felt she had no other options. She wasn't trying to kill herself. She was cutting on her upper thigh because she knew no one would see it. I think if someone feels compelled to mutilate themselves they definitely need to seek professional help. I hate that cutting yourself has become such a joke, when it's really nothing to laugh about =/ It's sad.

Emotional anxiety is one thing. I just don't buy self-cutting, coming from being one as a youth. For me, it was just something to do and if I pretended it was because of anything else was BS. Cutting to me is still bs. So is cutting to kill yourself.

IF YOUS WANT TO DIE, YOU WILL DO IT IN A SUREFIRE WAY, NOT ONE THAT YOU MAY SURVIVE. SAYIN'.

nah i disagree w/ koley bear. some people do feel an emotional release when they cut. not everyone does it just for attention.

that being said i also gotta go w/ what jessbuck said... anyone w/ this issue needs to seek help w/ proffesionals... outside the MOC message boards.

i had a friend when i was a teenager who cut herself but she had some serious issues with her family and abuse and whatnot... it happens.. but seriously see someone who has a degree or at least remove yourself from any situation that makes you want to do this

Not everyone who cuts themselves has a problem-- I have a friend named Del, and for awhile when the two of us worked at Blockbuster, he would go into the bathroom and cut himself, then pull his sleeves down over the wounds. His intention was to let his blood slowly drip out, so that he could mess with people. After the thrill was gone, he stopped completely.

As for people who do have an issue with it-- may I direct you to "In My Skin"?

Just because someone cuts themselves doesn't mean they want to die.

There's all kinds of other reasons for cutting/self mutilation, sometimes even religious.

There are all kinds of reasons for trepanning, medical, cultural, religious, psychiatric.

That doesn't mean anyone should be allowed to practice it with a 2-speed Milwaukee drill in their garage.

There are two reasons people cut: To get attention, or to vent stress. It's a lot like flipping lightswitches or other repetitive tasks is for someone with OCD, because it allows you to dissociate and get out of your mileu.

That doesn't mean it's not a problem.

mostly when feeling mentally and emotionally shattered,depressed and sad,you hurt yourself in order to show the pain you're bearing inside your heart,though it will leave you ever lasting scars so you can remember the times you were lost and depressed from the awful truth...I've tried that once but......

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_Personal ity_Disorder]Cutting s a MAJOR symptom of BPD.

Also, I've only ever seen kids cut in order to get attention from people. They've never wanted to commit suicide, they just wanted pity parades and to have people "care" about their "problems". BOTH of my friends who were cutters came from comfortable, supportive families and had major issues with drug abuse and depression.

However, this does not mean that the internal struggles are not real, just that there is already a low tolerance for attention grabbers and the behavior is stigmatized as not being a cry for help, but for pure attention as a means to "avoid real or imagined abandonment". Yet people who suffer from self-mutilating behavior, especially BPD, need help and treatment.

"Unlike Don, who merely fantasizes about being an amputee, there are some who take that fantasy and make it reality. A woman in Europe wanted to become an above-knee amputee. Already a below-knee amputee, she was able to find a doctor willing to perform the operation to give her the desired length of stump. The surgery went well initially; however, after a week, infection set in and the doctor was forced to amputate her leg at the hip in order to save her life. She now has no stump whatsoever.

In a recent case, a man in Florida who had had enough of his life as a biped picked up a 12-gauge rifle, put the barrel to his left knee and pulled the trigger. The man is now a self-proclaimed happy-go-lucky above-knee amputee."
