    Ugh.
    I must say, I've read this community for awhile, because one of my friends is in it. You all complain about someone bitching about boy problems, and you say that's not a reason to cut. So tell me what is a reason to cut? There is no right or wrong answer, everyone cuts for a different reason. And for your self-centered asses to put someone down because they cut due to a boyfriend is just read. How do you justify this? Do you realize, that why you sit there and you put someone down because of what seems like petty problems to you, tears into someone else, puts them down lower then they are? Maybe you should stop being such self-centered people. This is a community that's based upon support, about helping people to stop cutting. No where in this community does it say someone has to cut for a certain reason. If you don't like it why don't you make a communited dedicated to people that cut, because of "stress". You'd realize that stress comes from having a boyfriend, stress comes from everyday life. You act like you're something better then someone that has boyfriend problems, it seems to me you're just jealous. Jealous because they had someone that they cared about, and you don't. If I choose to cut because my friend hasn't talked to me that's my problem, and if I feel I want to share it with the people of this community I will, I'll share it for support, not for your negative put downs on the matter. If you don't like the fact that some people have boy problems DON'T READ THE FUCKING POST. If I felt the urge to go slice myself into nothingness, because my best friend is sitting in a hospital bed NOT talking, that's my choice, and if I wanted to write about it in here, that'd be my choice as well. No one ties you down and makes you read the post. You read it because you chose too.

    You all seem to forget the reason for this community. It is for cutters to help cutters, no matter why one chooses to cut. You can't say that your cutting is more reasonable then someone elses. It's bullshit, and you need to get off of your fucking petal stole that makes you think you are so much better then someone.

    The reason, that I posted this was because earlier this week, I wrote a post up for Wickedly_Torn, aka, Tara. She has boy problems, she's had a lot of them actually. And you sitting there acting like you're something better just PISSES me off. Because frankly as far as I'm concerned your not better then her. She wrote about problems she had with a guy in here, does that make her less of a person then you are? Do you feel like you should get a fucking medal because you don't have guy issues?

    Well Monday night my mom was driving me to a concert adn I was liek Mom u made a wrong turn and she was liek no I didnt, and she droove me to St. Lukes mental behavioral Center. AKA a mental hospital. I got really mad at her for sum reason, I mean I have asked her for help and stuff, but I was just mad, then I sat down and there was this guy in a hospital gown(older guy) and he was like talkign to his sister in the chair in frount of me and he asked her will you be more hurt or embarrassed by my suicide? I was like Oh mah Gawd! and yeah it was just I didnt knwo what to act like or do or anything. When the therapist finally saw me or w.e he asked me a bunch of questions and pretty much told me that it could be my hormones. HELL OWHO FUCKING SHREDS THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF HORMONES! ffs! what a moron! btu yeah he didnt want to admit me because I need to have a councelor and be on medication b4 anything. He thinks I ma deppressed to, Yeha hello buddy I wouldnt be doing this if i wernt depressed! But yeah in a way I really wanted to be in the hospital, to get better...to get help....btu then again I would have learned new and better ways to cut, even in a controlled environment such as a hospital...that could be good or bad......hmmm....Well I slipped last night, it have been liek 2 weekssince I last cut and I just reallly needed to do it, and I mean, it actually fuckin hurt, I honestly dont know why but the first few ones hurt, it was really strange, it seems liek the longer I wait to cut..the more it hurts...Well, my dilema here is...I dont want scars really...I mean they r beautiful and all but sum get ugly, and I just wanna be able to wear a prom dress ya know, and I dont wanna have to have these nasty deep puffy purple scars and stuff ya know,so now I put neosporin on right after I cut and stuff, but it kinda makes me feel bad now, becuase I kinda want some there to keep me in check, but Everytime sumone sees them I feel like crap, its liek Ive been vialated ya know....Idk, but I just wish there would be a sign of hope for me, to stop or to get help, or to finally see this therapist...OR SOMETHING! I realllllly Need it! Becasue the more I talk about my problems just like this the more I want to cut and the more I am gonna cut, and its not the way to be, I mean I love watching the razor go in, and feeling the pain and then it numbing itself, and watching the blood bubble up and chase the razor, but then inserting it again and agina wipping it back and forth causing a flow oof blood....Its like the best thing in the world to me......I just cant live like this anymore tho....and now that Im in tears and I dont know why.....I just feel the need to cut....Cut reallly bad to hurt myself for being so iggnorant and stupid and emotional about nothing....

    I'm doing a psychology project on cutting and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to write me a short little story on how they started cutting, as a third or first person account. I thought that making up a story would sound lame and i didn't want to use my own because im not a very good liar if people were to ask if it were about me. so Just leave them as a comment, that'd be amazing!

    thanks a ton!

    I am so lost. I don't even kno what to do anymore. My best friend doesn't even care, she is too busy wiht him and hes the reason for me being lost. I don't undertstand why he hates me. i thought we were friends. I hate my life it sucks. I have no friends and the friedns i thought i havehate me and talk about me. See if i am talking about someone i would just tell them to your face for some reason these people don't do that. I think its better to tell the person to their face. I am a very nice person, so why would he hate me. I hate him for hateing me and for doing everything he has done. But i like him alot. but that still has nothing to do wiht it. I guess i am just moaking myself crazy for pretty much nothing. I am just back where i started a few years ago, With nothing.


    But i hope everyone else is doing well??

    hey you guys...i hope that you are all doing well...im doing better...still in the hospital...but my mom brought me a laptop...so i figured id let you guys know that im doing okay...theyve got me on some nifty drug thing...and now i think im a secret agent...you wouldnt understand

    it saddens me to see...that people are beginning to i guess i would say think that they are superior over others because of the reasons they cut...there isnt a right or a wrong reason...and like trina said...everyone that says that there is...is self-centered...these people dont come in here...to hear you bitch about how petty their cutting issues are...no where on here does it say you have to cut for a certain reason...all that matters is that we all cut...and use to cut...your suppose to be there for support for them...not to give them negative comments...but comments of support...and help...

    but anyways..i hope that you are all doing well....and the people that seem to get the negative comments...and the people that someone is constantly bitching at...i hope youre not letting it get to you...be strong...and keep your head up...

    i dont know what to do..
    i saw my psychologist tonight. it was hard confessing to the shit i did last night but i told her. i told her how i almost overdosed and how i cut my wrists. and maybe i shouldnt have because she said she has to tell my mom since it consists of hurting myself. i just want to forget last night. i dont want her telling my mom. just think of the things she'll say. i dont feel like explaining why i do this to myself. i really have no energy. i just wanna keep this shit to myself. why does everyone have to know. i dont want my own mom to know. she would search my room and take away my knives. she would hide the pills. and i will go crazy not being able to hurt myself. i had tears in my eyes. i shouldnt have told her. why did i even say anything. i started getting aggrevated. now i understand why people dont go for help. because you cant trust anyone. she said she wouldnt tell my parents, but eventually they will find out once i go for my psyciatric evaluation. i have to be honest with the psychiatrist and than he/she will tell my mom. what am i to do. im screwed either way. i dont want to stop hurting myself. there was a time where i did. but now i dont want to. i witness a feeling of calmness and relief when im in my room spilling blood... or popping pills. she said if i had taken any other pills.. and overdosed... i would have died. damnit why didnt i do that. i cant believe how close i was. closer to death than cutting my wrist. but...i..dont..wanna..stop. and i dont want help anymore. i regret it. i just want to fucking die. i had to make a commitment to not hurt myself. but i told her i couldnt promise anything. i can "try" not to. its so hard. i dont think she understands. she was just sitting there eating ice cream... hearing my rants. i mean wut the fuck. i felt like running out of there. i want to run away and just dissappear. im not sure if i want to go on anti-depressants now. i just dont want to stop hurting myself. i dont want my parents finding out. i dont wanna be sent away but maybe its best for me. i am getting worse everyday. i am stuck here. there is no one else to hear me out. i feel lost but i dont want to tell anyone anything anymore. im going to continue to harm myself and just not tell her. i have to lie. i cant be truthful. i dont wanna be taken away from my happiness.. my blades.. dont take me away from them. they are my friends. i need them. why couldnt i be normal like my brother and my sister. why do i have to be this way. my mom will hurt more than i do if she finds out. i dont want her to. i made such a big mistake with trying to get help. its making me feel worse. fuck this shit. why cant she just say "if it makes u feel better... than just cut"... why does she have to make me stop... i dont want to... please...i dont know what to do...

    Reply to forgottenchild--

    Good Charlotte have a lot of good songs... like their new single "Hold On" which has always been one of my favorites about not giving up on life. theres one called "The Day that I Die" which is a pretty damn good song... my parents hate it because its like "the happiest day of my life is the day that i die" and at the concert Benji was saying how its a clebration of after life (which we all know he was lieing) and theres 3 more "Say Anything" "Young And Hopeless" and "Emotionless" (which is about Benji and Joels dad, but its pretty sad) there are all pretty sad... i jsut thought i should put it out there even though some of you might not like them but to me they helped me A LOT. check them out... some of you just might love at least one of the songs. and if your looking for something violent check out "Bloddy Valentine". you wont regret it.
