Parlance answered Thursday July 1 2004, 12:02 am: I don't think it's necessary to seek help if you've only done it once and don't plan on doing it ever again. However, it -can- become an addiction if you let it. [ Parlance's advice column | Ask Parlance A Question ]

JenSparkles answered Sunday June 27 2004, 7:03 pm: I haven't read any of the other advice anybody has given you on this topic yet. I want to be frank.
The first time I cut, I just cried and cried because I had sworn I'd never become an addict (I did. That's another story). I didn't think that I was stupid, though. I knew what I was doing and in some sort of sick, masochistic way, it made me feel better.
However, the decision is up to you about cutting. If you've cut once, seek out the reasons behind it and write them down. Re-read the list a few times. Think about each reason individually. If you are triggered after you read the list, but you also think cutting is stupid... well... you may be forming an addiction. If you are NOT triggered and you think it would be dumb to cut yourself again, you'll be okay.

Fish answered Thursday June 24 2004, 6:58 pm: If you realize it's stupid and you aren't gonna do it again then no you don't need to seek help. But if all the reasons you cut yourself before are still around, unresolved, and still bothering you, then yes seek help. [ Fish's advice column | Ask Fish A Question ]

HollyAnn2282 answered Thursday June 24 2004, 4:20 pm: Ya know i dont find cutting yourself wrong. I think its a way to get your anger out and what not. If your obsessive with it I think that'd be the time to seak help... but if you just use it as a thing to take stress out on I think its alright. but since you've only done it once and you now find it stupid i think that your fine. But if you decide to do it again and get obsessive then get help..

Hope I helped... it wasnt the best advice but hope i still helped [ HollyAnn2282's advice column | Ask HollyAnn2282 A Question ]

Here-To-Help answered Thursday June 24 2004, 1:49 pm: If you cut yourself once obviously that isn't good...and I'm NOT saying you should do that again, but all I'm saying is that doesn't make you crazy...despite what everyone says about cutters.
I know you realize what you've done IS stupid but it's really your choice if you should seek help or not. Doing it once is bad obviously...but if you know that you will never do it again you don't have to seek help unless you really want to.
If you develop an ADDICTION to cutting yourself, now that's different...you should telkl someone if you strongly feel you should. You never no if it could get worse. Please just try not to do it again. I know you only didn it once and not everyone gets addicted or anything...but please, just don't do it again...
I'm glad you saw that it was a mistake...you really don't have to tell someone unless you start to do it again but then again it is totally up to you and you can tell someone if you feel you need to.
OreoGirl answered Thursday June 24 2004, 1:02 pm: yes u should. even if u realized what u did was dumb sooner then most ppl u still had some reasons to make u cut yourself. if u talk with sum1 about y u did that u mite feel a lot better. even if u realize cutting is stupid u could want to do things that are worse like...well i dunno but there are worse things u could turn to. k well hope i helped.

rainbowcherrie answered Thursday June 24 2004, 12:49 pm: you don't need to go and ask for help unless you do it a lot. If you only did it once and then you realise it's dumb and stop completly then don't worry, just don't do it again. [ rainbowcherrie's advice column | Ask rainbowcherrie A Question ]
AskAdrien answered Thursday June 24 2004, 12:40 pm: I depends why and how deep you cut yourself. If you feel that getting help is the right thing to do, then go with the flow. [ AskAdrien's advice column | Ask AskAdrien A Question ]
Mandee answered Thursday June 24 2004, 12:17 pm: <span style="background: url([Link](Mouse over link to see full location); Well...not just quite yet. But you should consider the possiblity that you could get addicted to cutting yourself even if you realize it's stupid. If in time you feel like you can't find away to control your anger and stress and that cutting is the only way they solve these problems, than yes, you should seek help. It's sad because most people don't understand that cutting is only a mental addiction, so that when you think that cutting yourself solves everything, it's all in your mind, because physically it doesnt. Anyways, be careful and take control over this!! Love you - Mandee </span> [ Mandee's advice column | Ask Mandee A Question ]
orphans answered Thursday June 24 2004, 12:06 pm: Well, You shouldn't be doing it in the first place. First ask yourself: Why did I do this? What were the reasons? Do I have urges to do this again? And if you do think you will do it again, then seek help, before you do it again. Hope that helps some. [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]
pinkchicky20 answered Thursday June 24 2004, 12:06 pm: I wouldn't seek help just yet. if you have the urge to do it again then yes get help but if not then its ok. you realized it was stupid so i dont see you in any great danger. but if you do get worst and have the urge to do it come talk to me. i was in this situation before i know how it feels..but there is no reason to seek help for just once!

blonde answered Thursday June 24 2004, 11:01 am: Yes! You never know when you might cut yourself again. As you know, cutting is very dangerous and could kill you if done enough times. You should seak help, but it doesn't have to be too serious since you only did it once. Good luck and please don't cut yourself again!
