Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Injuries?
the thing is once you stat something and make it a habit then it becomes hard to stop. well in your case you said you cut due to emotions well a person always has an emotion so you are cutting to fulfill that emotion. do what i did wear a rubberband around your wrist and snap it when you want to cut.
let me know what happens

You can be cutting for ne reason because it may give you comfort. Like nicottene it can be because you crave it or maybe you're just use to it. It can also be from stressing out and instead of venting in a verbal for you do it in a non-verbal form.

it could be because yer used to it; but now yer just doing it because maybe yer bored.
you should pick up a hobby or read or something to get yer mind off of it.

hey i kno wat your goin through i used to cut to...and until ppl close to me found out (not by my choice) i kept doin it w/o regrets. but then like my guy who's so close to my brother its scary found out...then my mom. and both of them were soooo sad and i couldnt take it so i stopped for them..and myself. i realized it wasnt good and there were other ways to deal with stress and even if you arent stressed..then why do it?? right? so if you cant do it just for yourself..then do it for the people who love you.

It is still a tension release and the pain produces feel good chemicals that you are addicted to. Kind of like biting nails or working out but more damaging and unhealthy. There are other alternatives to handle stress and get support in your life. If you cut, it is a silent cry for help when you think no one is paying attention, and it is more depressing when no one does notice the cutting. I want you to take on the challenge of other stress relieving activities and try: Writing, Keeping a Journal, Meditating, Taking a Walk, Calling a friend, Saying a Prayer, Exercising, Talking to a parent, teacher, school counselor or your doctor (the doctor can prescibe medicine to help you!) and keep in touch with me if you need anything else. I want you to know that you are capable of finding alternatives to cutting that will really make you feel better and deal with the pain that is still unresolved. If you think that it is just a habit, then the best way to rid a habit is by replacing it with a new one. For example, cigarette smokers who quit, often chew gum and eat a hard candy...it keeps them self-soothed and calms nerves and tensions. Any addiction can be replaced with another more healthy one. Find yours!

You need to stop cutting your self. It is not good for you, and it does not help you. It is not to your advantage. You do not need to keep doing it, and you never should have started. IF you cant stop on your own, then go and see a doctor, or talk to some one, becasue trust me, nothing good will come out of, with the exception of many scars, which isnt attractive. I dont want to seem mean, but itz just not good for you. Please dont do that to your self. Talk to any body, whether it is a friend, or a school therapuist. :|
