Cutting is not a good thing at any age. I am struggling with self-harm now, and I know how hard it is to take action. I hope you are talking with someone about this. A counselor would be able to help you the best, because he/she will be the most qualified. There is some reason that you feel the need to cut, and it is important to discover what that reason is and deal with the issue. You will be alright, but it will take time, and it will be a tough road. Good luck and work on stopping! God bless you.
