r u even allowed to talk about this kind of stuff on here? anyway who cares, i basically just wanted to know if there are any other cutters out there because i feel i cannot stop, i dont go deep, just enough to hurt myself and feel the pain. i dont know why i do it , it kind of makes me feel sort of free and its like i have control. also, see those who do self harm here, does anyone around u know about it, like friends or family? because no one knows that i do it, and i go to great trouble to hide my cuts so no one notices, i would be so embarassed if anyone was to find out, i think i would die. some of my friends brand cutters as "weirdo's" or "attention seekers" so there is no way they could find out as they just wouldnt understand.

yep...mostly I scratch myself though. No one knew about it until last year my mom saw a huge red scratch on my arm, where I had peeled the skin off.

Yes i cut,my left arm is covered in cuts and scars,my legs have scars on them to,i do try to hide it but my mother allready knows so im not to bothered around her but people like my dad and uncles etc i dont like them to know.Doesnt help when my mother tells them what i do makes me so angry as it makes me feel like some sort of freak! Evil or Very Mad i dont do it for attention,but i do get a sense of relief and momentary control over my feelings,its brief but at the time its worth it.Even tho for many years to come i will have scars on my body from it Neutral

i cut myself to vanish my anger.. it really helps.. but i do not go to the extreme such as cutting in too deep.. whenever my anger surface, i'll most probably throw things around and my room will end up like as though an elephant just step in, so to prevent that somehow last year i took a pen knife or scissors or anything sharp and cut myself.. i'll stop when i've felt enough pain.. my mother saw it once but i lied to her and she ate it..

Yup it's been more than two months or so since i cut myself.. i tried really hard to concentrate on other things rather than doing harm to myself.. but sometimes it's just so fucking tempting especially when i'm getting mad!
