I cut basically when I feel like I want to cry but I can't. For some reason I never actually cry, not on purpose, just because it doesn't happen. And I think that crying kind of lets things out, but then I don't cry so things build up inside, and so I cut to let things out when everything's built up inside too much. Sometimes though it's just because I did something stupid or messed up something important and am angry at myself.

It triggers this one kind of chemical. I cant remember the name (starts w/ an E) The body senses pain or a wound and sends these chemicals to help heal it. They trigger happy feelings...u can get the same feeling by eating chocolate. Thats the scientifical reason anyway. Lots of people cut for different reasons. To feel alive, to take out anger or sadness, to punish yourself, even out of boredom. I cut because when you hurt yourself or even stare at a razor its like the whole world gets sucked away. Its just you and the razor. The only thing that matters is the pain, the blood. All of the other problems and bad things disappear just for a minute. And for that minute, everything is ok.

As the daughter of a cutter I'd like to firstly say the other people are pathetic for their answers there. It's not for attention or because they are insane. It's because they have problems in their lives that are difficult for them to cope with. They may not have an idea of how to help themselves, so they hurt themselves to release the emotions. Some people do it because they feel emotional pain and would rather turn it into physical pain to release it. Some feel so angry they feel there is nothing left to take it out on. Some want to hurt themselves because they blame themselves for things that have gone wrong --> It's like a form of punishment. Others do it because they want to know that they are still alive (they are able to still feel pain)... They maybe so numb that they need to feel something.
That's just my views on it, nothing professional or copied or anything...

They do it because the physical pain is better than the emotional pain. If someone has a lot of problems at home, they may cut themselves because it feels better than being in a messed up life.

well, i did it because there were a lot of things going on in my life, and cutting just helped. i didnt have anyone to talk to about the stuff happening, so i cut my arms a few times then i felt better...
its hard to see the point to it unless you've actually cut before...

People cut them self's because people have hurt them in past years and they started just after they got hurt and they carry on for years to come, a person i know done for four years and got help after the fours years because they did not want it to hurt anymore

I don't know the feeling of cutting myself cause i'm not into that at all. But from what i've heard, it's supposed to feel good if you do it in a way.

Because they are stupid little emo-goth-brats who shop at Hot Topic and want more attention. (like they don't get enough allready).
"I'm gonna hurt myself because life sucks and I don't have any friends and I'm so depressed and I have REALLY bad taste in music" Well maybe if you weren't such a little dipshit moron you'd have more friends.
