i just cut my chest and my legs with a bottle tab for the first time today. i dont know what got into me.
i say get some help, even talking to your friends will help.
cutting doesnt solve anything.
seriously. i did it once, im not doing it again.
get addicted to the internet. it fuels my insomnia.
nah, dont do that. express whatever youre feeling by drawing, singing (thats what i do) or playing an instrument.
hey, you might even get so good you get famous. =] |

Try taking up the Rubik's Cube. Study it. Practice it. Learn how to solve it. Then learn how to solve it faster. Get obsessed with it and try to get your time under 10 seconds. Don't worry about anything else accept your school work, eating, sleeping, being polite with others, and peeing pooping (although girls can still practice the cube while doing both these activities). Learn how to take it apart and sand the pieces to make it turn smoother. Try different colored stickers. Get multiple cubes, one for each room that you spend time in (including the bathroom).
Finally, in the mean time, talk to someone about your problem. Parents or teacher or counselor. Someone. |

Do something that forces you to focus. Do you have video games? Play those; you have to concentrate on what you're doing in the game, and everything else gets pushed to the back of your mind. Even if you don't own a system or any CDs, you can play something like Minesweeper, which pretty much computer has (and should have!). |

self harming makes you obssesive about hurting yourself, the main way to stop thinking about it is to tell someone to stop you from doing it. have you told anyone about this, you will need some therapy, it will take a while to stop for good, good luck. |

I understand that cutting may feel like a release of anxiety in the moment. You expressing it on a public board is huge and acknowledging the issue is the first step towards recovery. Try to identify your triggers and breathe or do another activity that is outside the focus of yourself. Also you may want to look at the website below if this posts. Maybe Cognitive Behavioral Therapy may work but as others suggested I would contact a therapist or your school counselor (if applicable) and I am sure they have resources. You are not alone in this world. |

You need to call a crisis hotline and talk to someone about it. They can talk you through the next few minutes, and they can refer you to a place where you can get counseling, which you seriously need. Good luck! I'll pray for you! |

I was in the hospital for an eating disorder and, while I do not purge, one of the things they do to stop people from purging is to stick their fingers in ice so they can't purge. Eventually they can just sit on their hands to control their urge and with even more time they don't need to do anything. Try doing that but with both of your hands.
Also, along the same lines, holding ice gives you the same release as cutting does. It sounds dumb... but try it. |

i think people cut themselves because they want to feel their emotional pain as physical pain.
maybe the next time u want to cut yourself, go the gym and get cut! do some bench press and feel the burn.
honestly tho that sounds like a serious problem u should seek help. |

Get some help. I cut myself from the ages of 12-19. Not the best times of my life. I started seeing a therapist when I was 16. It helps to talk about the pain you are going through. I hated my life, and to this day, its not the best life. But at least I dont have to look at ugly scars anymore and I dont have to hide anything from people. |

I used to do the same thing. But one day one of my friends saw my cuts and he had the most disappointed look on his face. That hurt so much. After his initial disapointment, he asked why I did it. I told him why. He then asked me if it solved the problem or made it go away or helped at all. I realized the answer was no. It might feel 'right' when you do it but does it really solve anything? It doesn't. My solution was to talk about it. If you don't feel comfortable talking about it, write about it. That helps too. Trust me, it helped me. Writing made me realize why I started. Or just listen to music. That's a HUGE reliever for me. |

Well i have to admit. I used to cut my self. Its a really hard thing to quit by yourself, sometimes you even have to get professional help. Maybe you could talk to someone you completely trust. If it doesn't help maybe you should tell your parents and let them take you to a therapist...that's what happened to me. |

Type a letter to yourself about how you are feeling. Print it out and read it to yourself outloud then silently.
Good luck. :) |

I think you should love yourself enough to not want to hurt yourself. Stay close to your family and friends that can be positive and encourage you. |

Find a professional who can help you understand why you need to cut yourself. You have issues that you need to identify and understand. |

You need to talk to someone you trust.
Cutting is the result of pent up anger and frustration. By talking you let out these feelings and the need to cut goes away. |
