I used to have a serious problem


Question Posted Monday October 9 2006, 3:52 pm

Hey melissa my name is elisa and I'm 17 years old. I saw one of the questions someone left you about her friend who used to cut herself. I can really relate to that topic. I used to be a cutter. I haven't cut my self in almost a year but I still have the scars to remind myself of the pain I was in. I look back and ask myself, why did i hurt myself instead of talking about my problems. I don't know. I guess I didn't think anyone would understand. If I knew there was a website like this, I know I could of prevented some things. Well I'm very proud of myself for not cutting in almost a year. Its very hard not to but if you put your mind to it then its something you can accomplish. Well recently I've had an urge to self harm but I haven't. I still think about it sometimes and I don't know who to go to talk about it. If I go to my mom she'll want me to talk to my therapist, if I go to my therapist she'll ask too many questions so I just want someones opinion. Can u give me your advice about how I can deal with my urges?

Listen Elisa . urgues for self pain arent good . i know you dont want to see a therapist because they're going to ask you too many questions but if you in so much pain that the only thing you can think of doing is cutting or hurting yourself in any other way maybe you do need help from a therapist. one of my friends used to cut and, one day she became friends with these two other girls who kind of steered her away from stuff like that . maybe you just need to find a friend who u can confide ur secret to and who you can askk to help you with it and to make sure that you dont do it again. people cant really be held accountable for all of their actions everybody needs a little help here and there..


hope i helped . write back to mee and tell me if that advice helped.

xoxo melisa
