I'm looking for an anternative solution to cutting myself... I'm 14, and I've recently been caught in the act of cutting. My parents have decided to take me to a psychologist, and I'm really not looking forward to it... It's hard enough to talk to them. The problem is, everyone is asking if I'm okay, and what's wrong, but I don't know the answer to that. I don't know what's wrong exactly. It's a lot of stuff, I guess. I know it's wrong to cut myself, and honestly, it's just plain stupid. Nobody wins with it. I've tried to keep all this hidden from my friends. I don't want them to worry, or judge. There's one friend who I've told, but I don't want to keep pushing all this on them. It's really none of their concern. They've helped me by talking about it, but I can tell they feel awkward about it. So I'd like to get some advice on what I can do to express how I feel without hurting anyone; myself included. (The psychologist didn't suggest squat)
For any who doesn't know; I am not emo. Emo is a genre of music. So I'd appreciate it if you refrain from posting as such. And don't tell me that emo stands for "Emotional" Because I know- It's what the music is about. Emocore as it's sometimes called. (link)

Well some things i do when a lot is on my mind..or when im just pissed is i grab a pen and a notebook and i write. this is a good method because your putting your emotions/thoughts down on a piece of paper without harming anyone. another thing i do is...just go to a room where your alone and listen to music until you feel like all the anger is outta your system. i hope i helped..try it out...and try to find someone who understands you the most and a person you could trust and just talk to them about whats on your mind.

Thank you for your advice.
I've never tried writing, but it sounds like a great idea.
Thanks again
