very proud of yourself. I'm so glad that
you got help and found out that people do
care. I almost wish I was there so I
could give you a big hug, but this is
almost as good. I will now have a great
day just because of you.
Please take care of yourself and write to
us here anytime you want.
Great!!!!!!

once you start cutting its

see I hate that. I hate that just
because you find a way to relieve tension
inside you, people instantly think of you
as problematic and therefore need some
sort of drug pumped into you. Where's
the old fashioned friendly help called
'talking'?!
Though it's a pain to talk to some people
about it, were always happy to listen.
You guys listen to me as well as everyone
else, so were all ears! :)

thats so funny. "relieve tension"
i started cutting myself when I was about
10 years old. Stopped for years then
started again in my early 20's but stopped
after getting the attention needed. Now
im 31 and a few months ago I started
cutting myself again because the tension
was just too great. Dint know how to get
it out and ended up losing everything.
Now that im left with nothing and no one
im just sitting here on idle waiting to
see what happens next. But one thing is
for sure.....It feels good after the fact
because it keeps my mind occupied on
something other than the pain I feel on
the inside

Stopped Cutting Reply!! Posted: 12-28-05 01:14am
Good for you september!!! I just read all
of the posts and I am so proud of you!!
Look at how strong your really are!!! You
did it all on your own!! That is so
wonderful!
Do you journal at all? It is a wonderful
way to let feelings out when an ear or
shoulder aren't handy!
Do you have a relationship with god? If
not, it is a great feeling to know that
when you need to vent and don't have
access to the computer or people, you can
call on him! Just talk to him like you'd
talk to us! He is so awesome and loves
you so much!
I am really happy for you!!

For No Hope Posted: 12-28-05 08:40am
I don't like the name you are using - no
hope - because there always is hope. It
sure doesn't seem like it sometime,
though, I will admit. I'm so sorry that
you feel like you have lost everything.
I wish I could help you because typing,
"i'm here for you," just doesn't seem
enough.
I do understand a little bit why people
want to cut themselves when they are in
emotional pain. I just wish there was a
more constructive way and not so dangerous
way to cope with the pain, but the human
mind is so complex.
Could "talking" to us here on the forum
help you "get it all out" and cope with
all the emotions, etc.? I check here
every day and i'll "listen and talk" to
you if you want. I've never cut myself
but have had my share of pain, both
physically and emotionally, that needed to
get it out. I get those, "nobody loves
me," feelings far too often.
Be careful with the cutting and please
write on here all you want. We would
love to get to know you and we won't judge
you. Please take care of yourself.

thanks again carol and kitty.
Thank you too munoz1226
you all have been very supportive to me,
and I think that was the best help I got
to stop cutting. My friends tried reverse
psychology on me. Believe me, it didn't
and will never work. So, don't ever try
that! It will just make matters worse.
To no hope, carol is right. There's no
such thing as no hope! I have stopped
cutting... And I believe that you can
too!! There's a deep pain in you, and
cutting yourself makes your mind forget
about that pain and concentrate on the
pain of the cut.. However, this "relief"
is only temporary.. Please post here
often and tell us more about yourself.
Hope you'll overcome this soon.
By the way, may all of you have a very
happy new year!!
