Attempted Suicide through Cutting?

Question

I've been cutting for almost 1 year now, and recently tried suicide I cut deep, passed out for god knows how long woke up to see a blood stained shirt and wrist.

Do I need help? In my eyes its helping me, it makes me feel better

Answer 1

Yes, get help. When you are older you will realize how idiotic it is to do that.

Answer 2

I am a former cutter ... and yes you need help.
Trust me I no the intense almost sensationable feeling it gives you almost as a druggie describes there high or as an organsim itself ... I no trust me ...
But when you get to the point you hurt yourself as you then yes you need help ...
Cutting is a sickness that NO one in general world understands ... only a cutter or someone specially trained ... knows the feelings and intensity of what a cutter goes through expierences ...
I hate people that are so quick to turn there nose up at us or act discusted by us **** them .... they dont no ... just like an addict will tell you until you walk a moment in my shoes you dont no **** ...
Cutting is an obsession ... it starts with something small that might look like a lil scratch and works into something that yes can kill you ... and that is because of the fact that each time you cut your emotions are raging and you want more and so you go deeper and you want more blood to see how much more you can take ....
Trust me it just gets worse ....
Good luck ... I hope it all works out it is hard as hell ... personally I did not seek help I was in your situation adn quit cold turkey ... I have not had one fall back only because I channled my desire in a different way I am now a tattoo artist and I well in a year have 40 tats .. that goes up weekly ....
It can be done by yourself but ... best to seek help ...

Answer 3

You should probably seek some sort of help. You could see a therapist or something, but if you tell them that you tried to kill yourself you'll wind up in a psych ward. For some people that is just what they need. For others being locked up doesn't really inspire to live (of course you wouldn't get out unless you were better or really really good at faking it). It takes some really deep cuts to actually kill yourself too. I guess there are worse ways to die, but while I don't actually know you your question at least seems like you don't want to die. I feel weird answering this question since I'm a bit suicidal myself... You could try talking to a close friend about it. Sometimes just talking helps.

Answer 4

yes...u need help. even tho cutting makes u feel better, long term its guna make u hate urself. when u get over ur problems ur guna look down at ur wrist and think to urself just how stupid u were back then.

i wouldnt necessarily say try a counsellor or a therapist coz i know from experience that they can make u feel worse than u already do. try talkin to someone that u know, but dont know, if u get what i mean. like, when i needed help i talked to my dad, i only just met him, but coz he was my dad i had that instant trust in him. try talkin to someone like this, itll do u more benefit then a counsellor.

if that doesnt work then try a counsellor. but u seriously need to talk to someone to try and clear up these issues u have. if u like ill help u out. ppl with experience can sometimes b the best ppl.

Answer 5

yes, trying to kill yourself is the last resort for a human being,

ure not telling ure whole story here, there must be a reason for u to commit this act, and im sure it not a happy one, u must have been depressed.

IF NO, u just do it cos u feel like it then i would recommend u go to the doc and ask for help, cos its not normal trying to kill ureself .... at all.

cutting ureself, donno how it makes u feel good i tried loads of recrational drugs before, aha maybe i know, i contimplated suicide many times before, the feeling of good u are feeling is the feeling of release! u realease all ure stress, im sure u must be feeling stress or lots of depression.

if not again go see the doc cause this is not normal behaviour.

take it easy take care

Answer 6

Yes, you need to get some help. I agree, cutting does help (lord knows, I've done it enough), but the suicide attempt is what concerns me.

Answer 7

dude u need to chill
yeah its addictive (former cutter myself), but for about 3 years now i've been okay
whoever tells u to read the damn bible, that that's the most inhuman thing to do --- well screw them they haven't been through bull **** that's strongly affected them in a way that they feel they must get rid of the emotional stress using a different technique. but it is addictive i understand that but u just have to get over the issue whatever it may be by doing something different.
good luck man laterz..

Answer 8

i know how much it can feel like it helps babe. i have been cutting for three years and tried to kill myself by doing it. it has since gotten me two trips to the psych ward...i know i still cut, and its cuz i really like the feeling and it makes me feel euphoric and much, much better everytime i do it. i think you need help sweetie, seriously. go talk to someone you really truly trust and they will get you the help you need. hope this helps hun! lots of love <3 jenny

Answer 9

Yes you need help because this is not normal. Im sorry for whatever you are going threw but try and get help before its too late.

Answer 10

yes you need help you are reinforcing in your mind that self mutilation eases your pain because you are causing physical pain to yourself as a result of your emotional pain.

it's okay to talk instead of mutilate yourself.

I have a friend who cut himself his name is Jonathan he has since stopped and has been much the better for it.

I'm sorry to even imagine you hurting yourself
