I have high hopes for you! Cutting is a really hard addiction to break! Trust me, I know. The pain is so hard to handle... I have a lot of faith and trust me sweetie God understands your pain. He loves you and forgives you. I was molested, and I know the feeling. Please email me. I would love to talk to you and help you.

You are cutting yourself for a reason.... sometimes people do it when angry or depressed and it distracts from more painful emotional feelings. The best thing you can do is get professional help from a psychologist (if you need medicine, the psychologist will refer you to a psychiatrist or family doctor). The psychologist will help uncover the underlying dynamics that make you want to cut yourself. This is not necessarily a suicidal gesture but a way of "relieving" or dealing with more painful emotional issues. It would be best if you can find a psychologist who has had some experienc or some specialized training in working with these kind of problems. Good luck and God bless you.... He does love you and wants you to love yourself and to take care of your body, not harm it.

God will not send you to hell. If the creator of our world were than unmerciful, would you want to be in heaven with him anyway?You are in your own personal hell right now. You do need councling. Don't be afraid to get help.
You have been through so much trauma. I was homeschooled myself, and although I was never raped, I used to hurt myself. I hated my life like you hate yours. Trust me, life will get better. Your friends don't sound like very good friends. Sometimes all you are going to have is yourself. Those times are so hard.
Find another release for your frusteration that will not hurt you physically or emotionally. I don't know what that is, but a councler probley will.

Well that is good that you haven't done it for a week now, no matter how hard it is , you have shown yourself that you are strong enough not to cut. Yes i too believe in God, and i believe if you ask his forgiveiness he will give it to you through the name of his son Jesus . He is proably a lot more forgiving them most poeple would think, at least on some things. There are things i would say would be hard for him to forgive. They would have to be really really bad things ok. yes he does love you, and hopes you will get help for this. I seem to be hearing a lot of really young people as you and your age cutting. Cutting is a copeing skill that you have picked up or taught yourself. It was giving you comfort from the things that have happen to you that has been very neg, and bad things. By now you proably know even though it is hard not to cut, that it is taking more and more cutting to get the relief that you once got from it. Well you mother should not be saying she is going to take you to a mental instution for one. That would have to be up to the doctors, therapist and that, and how you are cutting, and if it is for a reason other then getting relief. They would reither work with you , with your problem on the outside then put you in an instuation ok. That is when they have no room in a hospital, other then a state that you get send there, and at your age, i don't think state hospitals would take you... you would be in a mental ward in a normal hosptail with others your age. Cutting does not always happen in people or young childern that have been raped. Some people actually never cut. They just find other ways to cope that are not healthy .
Your mother, or parents really needed to get you help when you were first raped. The sooner the better. Then again quit often a young person as yourself does not even what to talk about it, it was bad enough that it happen to you , let alone you have to talk about it. But with a therapist, you will find that it will help, and they will help you to work through your problems, so go ahead and have your mother get you a therapist, cause it would be a lot better now, then 20 years down the line. It is going to be hard,cause you are meanting someone you don't know, but at your age you will be given to a therapist that works with young people as yourself. I know showing emotions can be hard, and telling, and they will try to help you through that. It is good to show your emotions, and it is good that you talk to someone that can listen and help you deal with your problems in a safe way. If you do not like the therapist after a while then you can ask to see another one, or if the therapist is acting like it was your fault them they should be reported, and you should get a new therapist. Cause getting raped is not your fault, and don't let anyone tell you it was. You are only 12 years old, and it was not your fault. I don't care how old a person is, they are not out there asking for someone to rape them, not even adults. We have what i call very sick people out there, that do these things, and it is their fault, and they should be the ones that are blamed, so don't you take any blame for this. You do have a problem, and it could be more then just being raped. It also sounds like you do not care much for the homeschooling. And you need to get out with out kids your age, not be locked in a house. You need to like your life too, and right now you say you hate it. Well just pick up the phone and call the crisis line, they will help get you help, they will contact a therapist that will get back to you, and you can talk to them right then and there on the phone. Tell them what is happening, and how your mother keeps telling you she is going to send you to an instution, cause that is not right neither. Let them help you, let them know that you have been cutting on yourself, and you need help to stop, and you have not been able to get the help that you need. You are very young yet, and you have a lot to live for even though you may not think so now. I have been where you are, but did not get help till i was a lot older, today you have the chance to get that help now. No one is going to think any worse of you for it . It is a good thing that you want to get help, and you know you need help. So please try to continue not to cut, and give the local crisis line a call, and talk to them about what is going on in your life, and how you really need the help, cause they can help you get it, and please do not hate yourself or your life, it can get a whole lot better. Remember too, god does love you and will forgive you if you ask him too. Know that he loves you. Good luck, and please make a call and get the help that you need, and should of already had. I hope that your new year is going to be a much brighter one, and happier one for you, now get the help you need, and know that you should have. God Bless and keep you safe.....

that is the reason why you are cutting yourself,isn't it. You hate your life? that is really sad. you should go on www.tyrabanks.com and tell her your story and she might help you or Oprah because youre 12 and it might be great for her show. i'm no therapist but i would say to do something that can get your mind off of cutting and report back to yahoo answers and tell us if it worked.
