chakra answered Thursday May 26 2005, 6:12 pm: i used to do that too sweetie but i found a good way to stop. if its the blood that makes you feel better then use red paint on your wrist or even fake blood. i used this cream that had strawberry extracts in that looked like cuts when you put it on, it really helped me and psycholgists reccomend you do the red paint thing too.

IveGotPinkJazzShoes answered Thursday May 26 2005, 3:53 pm: i take it that you cut yourself as a dort of release and you use the pain to do it. so you need a way to cause you pain that wont harm you or scar you. well this might sound stupid but if you get an ice cube and hold it tight in your fist. prpeer squeeze it then it hurts like hell. you will get all the release you need and it wont harm you one bit. except you might get a bit wet as it melts! lol! try and and let me know how it goes ok?!?!
Hope i helped! [ IveGotPinkJazzShoes's advice column | Ask IveGotPinkJazzShoes A Question ]
orphans answered Thursday May 26 2005, 11:45 am: to take your anger out there's a lot of things you can do, just make sure you never cut yourself again. you can scream as loud as you can, you can punch your bed or your pillow, you can squeeze something as hard as you can, or you can just sleep or take a shower, which also relieves frustration. hope some of these work!

roxychick answered Thursday May 26 2005, 10:34 am: I used to cut myself too, and i know that its hard to stop once you start. But the thing you need to understand is that when you cut yourself, your mad at somebody else, not you. and it makes absolutly no sense to hurt your body. it doesnt affect the other person, so why do it?? something that helps me is i write poems. that may sound dorky, but when your REALLY mad, you can write down some deep words. i wrote a poem one time, that i love, and my friends read it and all cried because it was so emotional. another thing you can do it start boxing, that way you can take your anger out physically. I started sketching and drawing. my drawings are very...well...i guess you could say depressing. (if a phycologist every read my poems or saw my drawings they would probably throw me in the phyco house) but i express the stuff that goes on in my head, through my drawings and poems. i think that you should really try something like this, it would probably help a lot.

XxKaTiExLeIgHxX answered Thursday May 26 2005, 9:37 am: Some good ways to take your anger out are:
Screaming into a pillow
squeezing an ice cube in your hand until it melts
flinging yourself with a rubber band
writing poetry
talking to friends/family/cousins/etc
taking a walk
running
listening to music
go to therapy/counselor
please dont cut yourself, it not only hurts you but hurts everyone around you. Theres always something better coming out of the bad, once you hit rock bottom all you have is up. so when your at rock bottom and you think all you have left is cutting think about life and how now all you can do is go up. Think about your future ( positively ) like your rich your smart your married you have kids you love your life you love your family etc. things like that. Never think sad angry thoughts when your thinking about cutting it will only make you angry and cut. I hope I helped. If you need to talk about this more You can talk to me on AIM or leave one in my inbox. I hope I helped! dont worry things will get better!
