What do you think of people who cut themselves?

Answer 1

people that are hurting emotionally. It's all about finding a way to control their pain. The cutting hurts, but it's something that they are doing to themselves, so they are in control of that pain.

Answer 2

I knew this girl; who cut herself on the arms. She was fine. Good looking, honest, friendly, great sense of humour. She just felt a little down aboput things I guess. As we grow up we all have to find ways to express our inner self. The world really hurts, I cry inside everytime I see the news or hear something or another. Cutting is a way of offloading guilt for a relatively free lifestlye. It is a release. However, there is a danger. I would suggest joining a volunteer group or something, to raise self esteem. And seeking help with a professional. We all have problems, and all need help to resolve them. Safely. By the way, the girl I was talking about, spoke to her Dr. they really helped. She felt really relieved and is now fine.

Some people post negative and hateful remarks on this post. Ignore them. They have no idea what it is like to have emotions, I am sure.

Answer 3

Nothing really I cutted Iearned to stop.But I understand the pain since I go throu it.It's not for attention usually people have a damn good reason to cut themselves.I think when I cut myself it helps get my anger out it feels good.But this is not the right way.I know I have to stop instead I try to get my anger or sadness in a normal healthly way.I know this sin't the right way.People who cut will soon learn to stop some cuts fade but others last a life time.

Answer 4

I think they have a lot of stress in there lifes. I think they do it to stop they pain inside. But really it is not helping in the long run. All you need is one good friend who you can talk to and if you feel like cutting just call them and tell them how you feel. Cutters are no different than people people who do drugs. Hurting your self to forget about real life

Answer 5

I know that people who cut themselves are either lacking attention or are trying to punish themselves for something that is going on within thier life. They usually feel like they are a bad person or are responsible for something that has gone wrong. Self mutilation usually makes this person feel better for a short while. They feel like that have punished themselves for their wrong doing. These people normally have bad childhoods or suffer from a lack of attention from their parents or loved ones.

Answer 6

I don't hate people like this...in fact, what they need is love and attention. I know, because i have been here. Cutting often accompanies depression and has different levels of severity. Sometimes it's just to let emotions out. Other times it's to make sure that they can still feel. For me it was to distract myself from the emotional pain i was feeling that seemed to overwhelm my entire life. It is very important that you tell someone you trust. Someone that can help you and get you help. There is help, and it's possible to stop.

Answer 7

I have scars from cutting myself! it was mostly because I couldnt talk to anyone about what had been happening. lets just sa something devistating had happend and the police and people like them, (the athoiries) said not to talk about it to anyone. I couldnt keep he pain inside any longer and the knife was right there. Now i have to live with thte scars to remind me of it all! I would not recomened cutting them selves to anyone. but I must say there are times when there is a good reson. Alot of you people are calling people like me that had a problem like that brats, and people who just want attention. I just did it so I could let it out in some way. I had tried every thing else and that seemed like the last thing to do. So please dont think of us so horribly and stuff. We arent all that bad half the time. just we have something inside we have to let out!

Answer 8

I just think they like the way pain feels. I hope they use antibiotic gel and don't let the cuts get infected. Maybe join a club of other cutters who would be more understanding than these people, get some feeling of community and belonging.

Answer 9

I think ppl who cut themselves have nothing better to do and need some help. They should just find something there interested in and get out there and do it.

Answer 10

I think of them as spoiled brats who have no idea what it's really like to be upset and depressed. If they want to make asses out of themselves and hurt themselves to get attention then they can be my guest. They should treasure that they are alive instead of taking it for granted. People who cut themselves honestly disgust me.
