In 0ne way it takes your mind off of the anger, frustration, regrets, fear, anxiety, and all that other stuff. In another way it makes them all bigger and badder because it doesn't really help resolve any issues and it creates more self loathing that you do it and that you hide it with all the other problems. There are countless forms of self injury or mutilation. It's a cycle in that as you hide the current injury, you feel more and more pressure and guilt, causing the compulsion to self injure more. Sometimes it's physical and sometimes mental. Shana S has a very good point.

I don't self-injure or cut but I have seen lots of people that do. It's something I don't understand. Perhaps they want to bleed just to know they're alive. I think maybe it's a way for them to take out their frustrations.

I don't do this..but have worked in the mental health field quite extensivley..from what I have heard..people cut themselves as a release or to ease some sort of pain..some simply do it for the attention it gets them. Hope this helps.

That is not a normal thing, and most people do not do it. If you are one that does, you might want to seek help

I don't self harm. but my friend does. and she does it because she is in lots of pain. you know people really shouldn't Judge other people without knowing what the people have gone through. unless you have gone through abuse or anything like that you can't know what it's like. so please don't Judge people who are really hurting.

well, i used to do it. i used to do it to get my mind off things that were bothering me.
i dont get how people can be so degrating about it though. let them get addicted to it like i was and then they'd see how you feel the NEED to do it.

I DON'T APPRECIATE SOMEONE WHO ADMITTEDLY KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT IT, PERSONALLY ATTACKING OR PUTTING DOWN THE PROBLEM SOME PEOPLE HAVE.

not all people do, but some do it because they would rather hurt themselves than others.
