no

No.
Cutting yourself is NEVER the answer.
Please, do not.
You WILL regret it. Talk to a parent. However, if this situation is about a parent, talk to a friend, a guidance counsler, perhaps a therapist, anything will help. Please just do not cut yourself, it is a very dangerous thing. Please just talk to someone, do not selfabuse or abuse anyone.
Good Luck,
God Bless<3

NO, cutting is not the answer!

Cutting yourself is not the answer. every life on this year is important. Go to therapy it helps. You have to find an activity to help to cope with whatever is bothering you. Has something happened in the past that is preventing you to move foward. Trust me I've been there, I know that it is a dark place to go.

why the hell would you cut yourself?
i mean you should be defending yourself if someone tries to mutilate you
everyone has the right to confidence and that includes you
stop crying and try be a man, assuming you're not
it seems like you're close to yourself rather than others, so look at every other direction and stop analyzing yourself of who you are

don't talk 2 a parent yet talk 2 someone who would understand email me and chocolatebunny807@yahoo.com I've been through sum stuff u could just need sumone 2 talk 2 but whatever u do good luck

No, it's not the answer.
Self injury is a maladaptive coping mechanism that doesn't actually change anything adverse about the environment or signficantly improve the quality of someone's life. It is addictive and any "positive" feeling is only temporary. It almost turns into a drug; you can be addicted and feel like you need to do it more and more or to a higher severity each time to get the same thing out of it.
If you haven't started, please don't. It's harder to stop once you do. If you do, you're also risking infection, trips to the ER, and some pretty awful scars. You'll likely feel guilty about doing it later.

It sounds like you're going through a lot right now. Is there a friend you can talk to? Going to see a therapist could also really help you, especially if you're thinking about hurting yourself. Seriously...

In the meantime, do any little thing that makes you happy. Be selfish. Do what you need to (as long as it's healthy) to make yourself feel better and safe. If you need to just flat out distract yourself, pick up a craft or go for a walk.

Stay safe. :)

NO! Please don't cut yourself!!!

Honestly, Why are you cutting yourself? It is obviously not to kill.... so why? Because you are depressed? But why CUT? I know! Because you want someone to help you. Thats why you posted this too. Do you think if someone see's your cuts they will help you in fear of you harming yourself or others? No. Do you think they will notice the cuts and think you have a SEVERE problem? No. Nowadays everyone tries to cut themself for attention. If you do that, you will be just like everyone else. You will get so much respect and a quicker/better response with help if you just be straight forward with someone that has the power to help. Notice I said with someone that has the power. Not just anyone.

And FYI I have had a friend who cut themself for the real purpose of doing it. He walked out of class, went into a bathroom stall and sliced his arm wide open. He barely survived. I dont think this is you by what you described as "cutting".... so dont try to act like it.

Sorry, this sounds harsh, and is I guess.... but really... think about it.

Hey cutting yourself is not the answer..i had a friend who used to cut herself and it never helped her at all. It just made her get worse. Talk to a very good friend or if you dont want anyone to know how you feel write it all down on a piece of paper. Write everything down..draw pictures if you have to. when you are done you can rip it all up or throw it in the air outside or bury it if you have to but trust me you will feel better to get it all off your chest. when my friend used to be angry she used to write all of her feelings down and when she does she feels alot of emotions but in the end she feels way better. I hope this helped you and please dont cut yourself..that is never the answer.

Cutting is never the answer, talking is the answer please stop cutting.

No you will leave a visable scar reminding you how horrible you felt at this moment

well im going against everyone here. i personaly think it is...watching myself bleed out all the fear and anger has helped me so much. please im me at Ur_so_jealous101 if want to talk...

Please don't cut your self. It doesn't help.
There is one quick thing you can do that seems to help.
Put a large rubber-band on your wrist and when you get the urge to cut snap it until the urge passes.

You are depressed, and depression does not go away on its own. I know, I've been there. I used to cut for over 20 years. It only causes more problems and shoots your self esteem clear out of the water, so to speak.

You have had some sort of trauma. Most, if not all, people who self harm have been abused, physically, emotionally, or sexually. It will continue to bother you and is possible to get worse until you see a therapist and can talk it out.

Please make an appointment as soon as possible!

If you're a teen, there must be someone you can trust to talk about this. And you Do Need to talk.

If you start to feel like life is worthless Please Call Someone Immediately! Even 911

You are worth it! You have as much a right to a decent life as anyone! It doesn't matter how badly you see yourself.

People care!

Here are a few things that might help get you through a crisis.

Think about everyone who loves you.

Know that God loves you, even if that seems hard to believe.
Write in a journal. You could just start writing about whatever comes to mind. The things that are bothering you may seem better when you write it down.

Go visit a friend.

Read the Desiderata. I will provide a website.

Get outside the sunshine and/or fresh air Will do you good.
While you are out, take a walk, bike ride, skate, anything you enjoy doing.

Yoga is good when you can't get out.

Most important is to contact a therapist as soon as possible!

You may have a chemical imbalance, there are anti-depressants that can correct that.

Know that everyone who answers you Cares about You!
I care, let us know how you are doing!

it just creates more problems and permantent scars

Cutting is not the answer. I have been doing it for 12 years, and wish I had never started. Its an addictive habit, and becomes one that you rely on, and can lead to other, and more difficult habits later on. There are so many other solutions and things to try to help you cope. Once you start something like self-injury, its not easy to go back, and its a very difficult thing to live with. Scars don't always go away.

------no========

Cutting yourself is not the answer!

Just don't give in to those negative urges
