Cutter and i want to know..........?

Question

why??

Answer 1

I'm a little confused, but as best I can tell, you are saying you are a cutter and want to know why do it? Please correct me if I'm wrong, I can be somewhat slow.

From what I have heard, many cutters will inflict self-injury to distract themselves from emotional pain. It's sort of the concept of telling someone with a headache "Let me stab you in the foot and you won't notice your head hurts anymore", or somesuch.

Others may do it as a form of punishment for their own percieved inadequacy.

No matter the reason, it is an unhealthy (in all respects) and dangerous habit. I'm not judging you or anything, but if you are a cutter (which I am still only assuming), I definitely reccomend you seek the guidance of a therapist or counseller. Good luck, my prayers are with you.

Answer 2

I had never heard of "cutting" till the last few years....people didn't do that in my younger days, we had other self destructive things to do. Drugs being the main thing.....I wonder if that isn't the new form of adolescence depression. Families these days are so much more dysfunctional then when I was a kid growing up, I mean we had it too, but it seems to really start in the very late 70's to early 80's, when divorce was rampid, and families just changed...so much more abuse and neglect... you can go to your local health dept. and talk to a doctor, probably at no cost if your a minor, and tell them if you have depression/anxiety and ask to be put on medication...YOU DON'T have to take it forever, it is surely way better than scarring yourself up that when your older you WILL regret having those scars, you may have children some day, what are you going to tell them, asking for help is NOT a shameful thing, and that is what it is there for! Please seek some help so you can stop it....I hope things work out for you......sincerely....
