Feeling the physical pain of the sharp knife or scissor or blade cutting through their skin gives temporary relief of emotional pain.

usually they have been sexually abused. it's a way of taking control of your body that someone else has controlled
it also has a contagious affect, so sometimes small groups in schools are afected at one.
people keep cutting b/c it causes dopamine to be released in the brain, which gives a temporarily feeling of relief and a mild high.

to release the pain and sorrow they felt. they just need to find a way out of it. if not they will be crazy. but the logic answer is they have mental problem n need to see a mental doc.
