i used to be a cutter right? And at some times i still am. I went through a lot in my childhood and am just recoving from a consequential 3 years of depression. But thats not the problem its this: i have this crazy compulsion with picking at my skin. it has nothing to do with cutting, and i dont think it has anything to do with depression. Like, i do it all the time, even when im happy. theres no emotion at all attached to it, except sum kind of bizzare need, i guess. i cant help it. i did it like a little bit before, but no its so much worse! once i start i cant tear myself away. i make myself bleed. i cause scars and i hate it. Does anybody know anything about this? Anything similar? Any ideas? i'll rate high for good answers.
if you make yourself bleed and cause scars by picking at your skin, i'm pretty sure its just another form of SI (self injury)...even though you say you do it when your happy and there's no emotion tied into it...it may just simulate the feeling you had when you used to cut.
i would say google it. like, type in something like "forms of self mutilation/injury".
you could also try asking this question on the message boards at gURL.com. you have to like make an account, but its worth it.
hope i helped.
Hello. I am 14 years old, and have secretly been cutting for 3 years. I have never told anybody before, but I am wondering if I should. Would it be in my best interest to get help?
I have a lot of trouble trusting people,though.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
well if you've been cutting for 3 years or so, i bet that some people have become suspicious...but are just too nervous or reluctant to say anything to you, since it is, indeed, a sensative topic.
but you really need to tell someone. not necassarily a parent\adult, but like, a close friend who you can trust. and yes, i know you said that you had trust issues, but this will help you become more trusting...and if you don't know how to bring it up to the person, just say something like "ok, this is random, but its really important...and i haven't told anybody else...ever. so, can i tell you? but seriously you can't say ANYTHING to ANYONE." or something to that effect.
i'm not sure if you need to ger professional help yet (since i don't know you and i don't know your whole situation). but, if you tell a friend who you know won't say anything, and that cares about you, they will seriously help you quit (TRUST ME). and plus, once you tell someone, you have somoene to talk to about it.
anything else that you need advice on, IM me (x0mrm0x) or just inbox me.
hope i helped\sorry it was so long, tehe 0=]
hey, i'm 13/f and weigh 95.. Ive been wanting to lose weight because im really skinny but my theighs and butt are really big. So I started not eating wendy's/mcdonalds/burger king/soda/desserts.. I've been doing that for about a month and I havent lost any weight, so I started exercising daily after every meal. I did that for about 2 weeks.. and still, I didnt lose any weight. Should I just go back to eating everything I normally would because eating healthy isnt doing anything and exercising isnt doing anything and I want to keep my metabolism high! what do I do?
maybe you are losing INCHES, or appearing thinner, but you're not losing any pounds because the fat is being turned into muscle...which weighs more than fat. 95 lbs is pretty thin, so don't worry. and plus, guys don't mind a girl being a little thick in the theigh/butt area.
hope i helped.
I used to cut but I've stopped since January. Now I've been thinking about a lot again, and itching a lot. Last night I actually did cut. In a way I want to cut, but then I don't want to get into all of it again, it's crazy. What do I do? And don't be an idiot, please take this seriously.
i feel you. cutting doesn't solve anything. it might seem like it does, but really, it just fucks things up more and more. remember about all your friends and family who care about you and you won't do it. its not worth it.
hope i helped
Im just wondering, this is a quick question. I slept over my new friends house. Shes extremely pretty, rich, but shes diabetic and she smells like fish. Badly. I know she sprays perfume down there, she's told me. But she cannot find a way to get rid of the smell. What should I tell her as advice?
don't spray perfume down there for one (fish smell and perfume don't mix...probably makes it worse). the fish smell is probably because of wetness/moisture. try to keep that area dry and always wash in the shower...
hope i helped.
To all of you girls out there! Is it true that sometimes when you get your period your face can breakout?
Thanks
that is totally true.
some girls break out more than others. it depends...i dont know what it depends on...oh well.
i cut and my friend are asking alot of questions about my cut and i feel really bad about lying to them but i dont no what to do
i think you just have to be open about it so that they understand and don't judge you and stuff...because trust me, if they see a cut and it looks non-accidential and you try to lie about it...it won't work. like, if you say your cat cut your wrist, its not gonna fly. so, you just have to talk to them and not lie or anything because all they want to do it help you.
hope i helped.
