Cutting
Posted: 07-10-07 14:21pm

I work with a 28 year old guy that is a cutter. He's not much of a talker so I don't know how to help him. I don't know anything about cutters. Why they do it, what it does for them etc.? He is embarrassed by it for sure, because he wears clothing that covers the signs. Can anyone give me any insite, direction or understanding? He has not seen a doctor about it.

I don't know if I can shed any light with specific relation to your friend; but personally speaking I used to find cutting deeply cathartic. It was a release, and channeling all your concentration on pain is the most simple way to stop your mind whirring and driving you to distraction. It was emotionally purging.

I stopped 'cutting' per se, but am pretty heavily pierced. For me, the piercing does exactly the same as cutting but is more socially acceptable. Perhaps it's something you could suggest, to help stop the cutting itself and buy some time to work out why he's doing it in the first place?

hey i am a cutter i don't cut like i used to but lately want to cut again the pain inside is just so great and i can't seem to talk to no one. I don't have a support group I don't have no one I don't have alot of friends no one to go to no one to talk to it gets pretty lonely. all alone and the only way i know out is to cut to cut my pain away i am not a kid no more and i still do it because i can't talk to no one no one understands I wish that I had a woman that I could talk to someone between 35-50 someone who could help me i have no friends my only friend is the razor well if there is someone out there i appriciate it.
