At any point in your life. Also for how long? And what exactly?

I self harm and have done for a few years and I just wanted other people's views on it and see how common it is and whether many people actually think self harmers need help or not.

i know of a few of my friends' friends doing it, and i have a friend or two that has done it...mostly by razor cutting...i another friend who did it in the form of peircing her own ear to inflict pain, and i myself used to do it while back, mostly by scratching myself with pins. it took a long time for me to get over it...i don't reccomend it at all for anyone...the effects suck, and you're stuck with the scars-emotional and physical-forever.

Too many.
It's THE new thing to do lately, it seems!
I know at least 5 or 6 people that have done it, and I'm pretty sure others have too - they just hide it better.
I couldn't self-harm. I wouldn't want to most of the time, but sometimes it gets tempting. Though I know I really couldn't, so I shouldn't think about it eh? ;)

I'm not gonna tell you all that, but i am gonna tell you that if you self harm you should get some help. I'm not judging you but i've been there and am getting help. Harming yourself becomes just as addictive as drugs. It's okay to talk to someone there are ppl in the world that will listen and help you out.

I cut myself for three years. Haven't done it in four days, but I think that's only because the medication I started on Tuesday has been making me so sick that inflicting any more physical pain was entirely unnecessary.

5 years ago for several months and recently I have started again. Its just the best release unfortunately.. I think we all need to find a decent alternative. My psych tried to give me ideas but I spit them out before she could and she was like okay well. The system needs to be revamped. If you havent talked to a doc please do as long as somebody knows and you arent stuck with it by yourself.

Do ya mean 'harmed' as in emotionally...
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in socially..
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in fiscally..
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in spiritually..
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in mentally...
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in financialy..
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in confidence..
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in personality...
Do ya mean ;harmed' as in health...
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in self-conceptually..
Do ya mean 'harmed' as in logic/rationality/cognition..
actuality is humanity seems prone collectively and individualy
to do harm to our-selves, one way or another, at one time or another, through out the life we live...it's just a matter of 'how' we each go about it .
