People say things like "Cutting yourself means your psychopath." or "You're doing it because you want attention." But is it just because we are scared that someone can do something we can't for reasons we don't understand? Is it because we care, or because we're scared of diversity? (Not that I cut or anything.)

Cutting yourself is not a good thing ... When people say it is to get attention they are right about some people... but most who cut themselves not many people know about it... Some do it to feel alive...
Cutting yourself doesn't create diversity... it creates barriers.

I don't think it is that people don't understand the emotion that causes a person to cut themselves it is that they don't understand how to help someone who is feeling that way.

Seeking help is not a weakness... knowing that you need the help and getting it is a strength.

It's not wrong because it scares other people. It's wrong because the person who is doing it is disrespecting themselves. Every person deserves respect just for who they are, and someone marking up their beautiful body is undermining that.

I'm told people do that sort of thing because they feel emotional pain from ways they have been abused, but can't put a finger on how they were abused. Basically, they feel emotional pain, and can't explain why. The physical pain is like an outlet for the emotional pain.

If you or your friend feel(s) the urge to cut, get counselling even if you don't have a clear cut issue. Just be careful and choosy of who you go to. A good counsellor will help you work through issues and not brush off your pain. Try a counsellor before you try a psychiatrist...the psychiatrist is more likely to hand you drugs. If cutting is a response to abuse, then logically, a person shouldn't need drugs. The person needs to get to the heart of the issues.

Cutting yourself is not wrong because other people are afraid of diversity its because if you were to cut to deep of to much you could really hurt yourself and many people are afraid for your well being. i think a person who cuts has a serious personal issue and should see a counselor

Cutting yourself isn't 'wrong', it is an indication of some unvoiced internal pain or conflict that causes the cutter to want to hurt themselves, and that is the problem that needs attention, particularly since cutters often exhibit other self-destructive behaviors like bulemia, drug or alcohol abuse or suicidal ideations. Cutting is hardly an 'alternative lifestyle', it's a clear message something is severely wrong in the cutter's life or in their mind that needs attention and treatment.

Cutting is not wrong based on what other people think. Cutting is wrong because there is a psychological problem people have that causes them to harm themselves. Nobody should feel the need to harm themselves to make themselves feel better. People who cut themselves should seek counseling. They're not psychopaths, they just mental problems just like those with depression, anxiety, and phobias.

It's that the person can accidentally cut too much and hurt themselves. There is something bothering them and people want to find a more effective way to help that person deal, before they die from loosing too much blood.

Cutting is a sign of self destructive psychiatric problems. Normal people don't do things to harm themselves and they certainly don't cut themselves. That's just sick.
