I am the kind of girl that usually believes in this kind of stuff, but I started cutting with a safty pin in school, and it is soooo addicting!! Me and A couple of my friends do it. My friend told me that I should start. Then, his girlfriend started after me!!! I think that she is only coping me and her boyfriend, but it is hard to tell!! Any idea on how to get me and my friends out of this horrible habbit?? People with experience try to help, but people that have never cut, still HELP!!!!!

What? Kind of confused...you cut yourself, and your guy friend cuts his self, and his girldfriend is now copying the both of you?
Think about what your mother would think if she found out you were hurting yourself like that. Wouldn't it hurt her? And how would you explain it to her..."My friend did it, and I thought it was cool so..." sounds pretty lame when your mom is crying and worrying about your mental health.
So just stop, and tell your friend and his girlfriend that you think it is dumb. Maybe you can start a trend of thinking that cutting yourself is not smart.

The only thing I can tell you is that you need to love yourself and not want to hurt yourself or your family. Your parents would be heart broken if they knew about this. You reached a point where at least you know it's wrong and you are asking for advice on how to stop, now you need to reach out to the right people, if not your parents, then a close family member, guidance counselor, teacher, someone you trust. Ask them for support adn help. We at Answers can only tell you to get the help and say a prayer for you. good Luck and I will definitely be praying for you.

try getting a different habit instead such as playing with your hair or eating a certain candy, try reading books about it or go professional. i think all yo really need is determination to stop doing stuff of that sort. the only way to quit is you deciding and sticking to that decision

You need to get help. Seek professional help to figure out the underlaying reason why you do it. Could be a serious problem if you let it go.

you have got to stop.
tell your mom and dad.
you can even call your doctor on your own if you dont want to tell them, and they can refer you to a therapist.
even if you are not doing thsi because you are depressed or anything, sometimes kids do things to copy each other, especially if they think its bad *** or really wild.. and they do it for that factor or for the rush they get from it.
you really HAVE GOT TO TELL YOUR PARENTS. you will be happy you did.

sorry I can't be of help........but you are right about you and your friends needing help. Try liking yourself more and think what if someone else was abusing you like that, you wouldn't !

Show the cuts to your parents.
Do they care?
Show them to someone who cares about you.
If you do not have someone, there are people who will care about you whoever you are.
