Please talk to any adult that you trust, and do it NOW. Go back and talk with that same teacher and tell the truth. You trusted that person to begin with, and under the circumstances, the fact that you said something different before won't be held against you.
You need professional with this one, and I'm happy for you to see that you understand that and want to stop. Any teacher, nurse, doctor, counselor of any type will know where you can get help of will know how to find out where yu can get help. Don't ignore the various hotlines that are in most places. And please, if you begin to feel that you are closer to killing yourself, call a suicide hotline.
The first step is admitting you have a problem, and the second is asking for help. You're well on your way to the second.
Good luck. This will hard work for you, getting the to bottom of all these issues and figuring a good way out, but it will be worth it.

First off, please talk to someone. That's the first step to getting over it. Everyone has already mentioned the main things, so I'll try not to repeat.
I also went through a period where I felt worthless [luckily i was able to stop it before it got worse]. I remember someone I know was talking and he said that he believes that one of the main reasons why God created us, is so the He could love us. That helped me so much. If God really wants to love me, how can I be worthless? He loves you and doesn't want to see you go through this. Trust Him and believe in Him. He wants to help.

You have to find out what your reasons are for cutting. Find out why you feel worthless. Think about the consequences cutting may lead to. I know you don't care because you're "worthless" but listen there is soooooo many people that do care for you. Even if you think there isn't. And you think you're just hurting yourself, wrong. You're hurting every one else. If you think this is what you want to do. Can you imagine how much agony you're putting your friends & family in after it's done & over with. You don't need to go to a teacher. You need to get therapy, and maybe some time in a psych. ward. They know how to treat people with suicidal thoughts.

Read a Bible... preferably an Amplified Bible or any Bible specially designed for your age group. I recommend the Epistle of Paul to the Romans. Chapter 7 is nice.
Get help. Pray. Talk to your parents or someone you trust. Just do something. Otherwise, you may be suicidal (God forbid). Fight the good fight. Fight the urge of cutting yourself. Don't waste your life. You have the ability to do something great and land yourself on the next generation's history books. Don't waste it.

Bunny you need to talk to someone! It is really brave of you to come on here and share your heart but you need to speak with someone who is near to you. You are not worthless...you are so young and have so many beautiful futures in front of you! Don't believe anything different. If you continue down this road of self destruction it will end in tears. You will be fine Bunny...

Get off of your computer and walk over to where your parents are, turn the television off and say this:
"Mom, Dad, I have a problem I need your help with. I'm not happy with my life and I have started cutting myself. Please help me."
They will respect your honesty and that you came to them first. As a mother I can tell you that they love you very much and they would want nothing but the best for their child.
Go..............now! You can do it.

yeah, quit cutting. there is a reason your doing this and your the only one who knows what it is. i had a stepson who did that before he was with me. he got himself over it, but it was coming to grips with things he couldnt control and accepting life the way it was, because it will get better. you dont know that you that you have nothing to live for because you havent really lived yet.

You need to see a counselor. Talk with your parents or your teacher, ask for help with this. Don't wait. You need help now.
