ok well im 14/f and live in small town USA I have been SI'ing for like 4-5 years now and i really wanna stop i am really wating to get closer to God ad this is just holdig me back from living the life i want to. See i started becuse it felt good it feel something other than emotions? idk how to word it but my father was abusive i was never touched but i saw what he did to my sisters and my brother and well i dont know if that has anything to contribute to it. Now that Im away from him and have been for a while i relized i want to change. I dont know how so I guess thats what im asking. HOW CAN I CHANGE AND STOP SELF INJURING???? That includes cutting and stuff like that anything that causes me pain.


Before you ask I never wanted attention and well am asking on here so i dont get the wrong type.

first off self-abuse is a common but unhealthy thing that many people (myself included) suffers from

the reason that many people hurt them selfs physically is because internally them are bleeding(non literal)

it's a way of pinpointing all emotional pain into a physical being that is in your control. Being able to control how you feel makes you happy but is really killing you.

to stop you might want to consider seeing a therapist(i know is sounds stupid and you don't think you need one..but they really help you with some issues you may had never known you had)


or even confiding in a close friend or family member and they can put you on the right step to getting healthy

with yous dad being abusive it definably plays a role, no questions asked. his abusiveness to your family has scared you image of yourself and others. you may not realize the horrific and emotional toll it is taking on you
