JUST DONT DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! think if your mom or dad or anybody found out you would probably be in trouble. so everytime you think about it just think about what would happen if your family found out

put rubber bands on your arms, each time you have the urge to cut, simply snap the rubber band. I hope I helped!

well for start you should realize the dangers of cutting.. and then try to take your stress out a diffrent way... some good ways are squeezing an ice cube, or like snaping a rubber band on your wrist when you feel the urge to cut.. or maybe try to run or like do some kind of exercise when you want to do it.. or maybe talk to someone about it.. and if you really cant stop try to go to a theropist..
hope i helped..

I know it may be the answer to you how to stop the stress but what you are doing is BAD. Stop. Think of all of the people who care about you and can help you first of all with the cuts second of all with your stress. What your doing leads to death. Talk to someone who you think might keep your secrets but will also help. I hope I helped!

Oh my gosh!
To stop from cutting, you have to tell yourself to stop. Only you are in control of you. No one can make you make you not cut yourself. If you cut yourself, no one can stop it but you. I'm sorry that you are stressed but you have to stop... and FAST. Cutting yourself is a huge deal. If you keep it going, you will just end up hurting you and that's NOT something you want to do. This is more important than anyone ever thinks. Everyone just thinks that it's "no big deal" but it is. There is a major vein in your wrist that leads to your heart and the smallest slit in that vein and you'll bleed eternally but even cutting your shoulders, legs, ankles, or even hands can be very dangerous. And I know that no matter how much stress you go through, you don't want to hurt yourself. You want to relieve. You can go to counselling for ideas on how to do that. A school counselor is great to talk to. I'm really glad you chose me to go to about this. I feel like you trust me enough to tell me this. Fortunately, I know just what to do in this situation. You need to talk to someone... ANYONE YOU CAN TRUST! Your mom, dad, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandmas, grandpas, teachers, counselors, friends, and even neighbors. Talk to anyone. Since I don't know what you're so stressed about, I cannot tell you what to do to solve your problems. I do know, however, that you cannot hurt YOU in spite of all of your stress. I go through so much and I live with it and calm myself down. Maybe that could help you. If you want to tell me what is making yuou do this, email me. If you don't that's O.K. I don't care whatever one you choose. If you feel like you can trust me (and you can) just email me but if you're a little unsure about trusting someone you've never met, that's O.K. My email address is here if ya need it: x_pink_x109@yahoo.com O.K?
I really hope you choose to email me. I would love to help you but I can't unless I know what all is MAKING you do this. I hope I helped you anyways!
I want you to know I'm here for you and you should always know that some people care about the people who think that no one is there to listen to you. I'm here to listen to you. I will listen to anything you have to say and if you need help, I can give it. Just ask me! :-)
Best of luck!
Hope I helped!

Stop cutting yourself right now!!! Yeah you know what I have stress too school.homework/tests/quizzes && cheerleading I don't come home until 6:00 every day and then I have to always do my homework && eat && get ready for the same scehdule tomorrow. Between all of that there is sooooo much DRAMA && LIES in middle school and its driving me crazy but I don't cut myself are you kidding me. Yeah stress isnt a good feeling but its not worth DIEING FOR. I dont know this but I THINK if you start cutting yourself you might become addicted and that isnt good at all. Tell someone about this tell your best friend she will get you help because its a good thing. You need to talk to someone else about this.

first of all I think you need to go to counseling. If you don't think you could talk to a stranger than you should talk to your parents or some other adult member of your family. If you don't feel comfortable then talk to one of your friends. Cutting doesn't do anything, the thing that's bothering you might go away when you are cutting but when you are done it is still there. Plus it hurts people that really care about you. I know this from personal experience because I have cut before and it really isn't worth it. But seriously talk to someone and do it fast before things get alot worse than they are now. Good luck and I hope everything works out for you. If you need to ask me anything else leave something in my inbox.

This is bad-this is really bad. You are hurting yourself, and you need to stop. The first step is that you have recognized that there is a problem, and you want to stop. You have to stop. It's going to be a long tough road, but you need to find it within yourself to STOP. Tell somebody that you trust, whether it's your parent, your school guidance counselor, your best friend, your teacher, even your school nurse or a police officer. There is always somebody to help you, even when it seems like you're all alone. If you can't talk to anybody, you know, wait until you're home alone and call this number: 1-800-949-0057. It's a hotline with people who are trained to help. You probably have very stressful things going on in your life, and you need somebody to help you get through it all. Whatever happens, you're going to be ok if you stay strong. Stop cutting, and resist the temptation to do it. If you need anything, I'll always be able to help. You can e-mail me anytime and I'll answer as quickly as possible. You're going to be just fine, and you can talk to me if you need someone to be there for you. Good luck and remember, part of being strong is getting help when you need it.

oh my gosh doesn't that hurt?! cutting does nothing good for you, and there's no point in doing it because you just get addicted to it so then you do it more, and it really hurts yourself, and it may even lead to suicide.
there are a lot of other ways to relieve stress or to relax, and it's not NEARLY as bad as cutting, because each time you cut you become even more addicted to it, and it makes it harder to stop each time.
some of them are really weird and might not help but owell.
you can sceam as loud as you can, and if you don't want anyone to hear you then scream into a pillow to block out the sound.
you can start punching and kicking your bed or pillow or anything soft, but don't take it out on a person and start beating them up because that would hurt...
you can take a nice loooooooong bath with scented candles all around you w/ the lights off (but you would still have some light because of the candles) while you listen to some music or something. <-- this will make you really relaxed, and it hopes to take a nap after the bath and wake up, and you'll feel really good and relaxed!
you can write down all of the things you're stressed about on a piece of paper then rip the paper up into tiny little pieces...
and there's a lot more that you can do to relieve stress or to relax, just DON'T cut or take it out on somebody else!! this kind of stuff really depends on the person, so you can even make up your own way of relieving stress!
*good luck!*

I know this may very brilliant to people, but put away the blade! throw it away. Make sure you cant get a hold of it, so if you are tempting to do it you will not be able to or find another habit thats not as painful or that hurts your body such as the old rubberband trick when you snap it on your wist when ure mad, but anotehr habit thats doesnt hurt your body is a good way to get off that bad addiction of cutting.

Simple determination. It's really hard, but that you recognise that you need to stop is a good step.

It helped me out alot.
go to the other links too, really interesting stuff, but I'd steer clear of the pics, they're kinda triggering.
Hope you get better soon.
