It is your reaction to society. Read Emile Durkheim. Don't have much more advice. I have been pulling out my eyelashes and eyebrows for most of my life. I started at 10 yrs. old, quit at 15 ( so I could get a date) and restarted at 18. This time I've been plucking for 13 yrs. Although you don't pluck, plucking is self harm. I know what triggered it now, but knowing didn't do anything. It is a habit. I had some girlfiends who cut themselves, but it is really just a bad habit. Ever see the movie, "Secretary?" It is about that and it is AWESOME.
All you need is love.
It has nothing to do with feeling unattractive. It has to do with anger at yourself. Cutting is much more serious than plucking, but both affect self-esteem. I think it is really a matter of self control or self acceptance. Counseling (ha, ha, ha), medication-does not exist. It is an obsessive compulsive disorder driven by anger at oneself. That is all they can tell you. If you want to change, see a psychologist that specializes in behavior modification!

If you feel unattractive why not do something to boost your spirits join a gym or take up walking if you dont have money for gym membership. Get your butt to school and try participating a little more ,Cutting your self is not the way to go about your pain . If you have a family Doc. Make your self an appointment right away or talk to some teacher some one you can trust and they will help you deal with that part of your life. As for the rest of your life just remeber this No one but you can make changes on where your life will lead! You can get guidance but in the end it will be you to make that final decision. you are a young person You will get through this ,I hope you make some good decisions for your self and I hope I was of some help to you. Good luck and be safe.

once upon a time i cut myself but what you dont realise is the scars look ugly not you, it wont make your life any better. if you feel alone like i did get yourself out there talk to people and you,ll be shocked to know many have the same views but show them in a different way this will help with your confidence and show you are on the same planet as everyone else even though you may not feel this. i know you can do this if you talk to other people they will talk to you and before you know it you will no longer be alone. the good thing about meeting new people is : they know nothing about you and have nothing to judge. go out have fun and make friends it may seem hard but i did it and now im engaged and have a beautiful daughter i just wish i knew how great life could be as a teenager then may not have suffered as you have.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!! there are so many people out there who self harm. I am 18 and have known so many people who have self harmed, probably about 10 people in he last 3 years. I understand that you feel that when you cut you feel that all the tension and regret just falls away but this really isn't the way to deal with the problem. you have to overcome it and ween yourself off. I know that it feels like an addiction but it is on that can kill. i once had a friend (we went to different college's so i don't see her now) that cut her wrists and she almost died several times through cutting and overdosing on painkillers. you need to seek help. just ask your GP and they will be able to hep you or refer you to someone who can. If you feel hat you ant face speaking to someone else about it face to face then you can speak to other on line who can help you. just type self harm help into google and you Will get 100,000's of responses.
you're not alone and there are people out there who can help you Jordan. dont give up searching.

When I was 15 I used to cut, I understand why you do it. I used to cut my arms and occasionally burn my self. It took awhile but I manage to stop and overcome the depression that was causing me to cut. I know cutting can make you feel so much better, that you are alive and still there, but you need to find a better way to achieve that.
Ever 15 year old feels unattractive, but you are not. I know I don't know what you look like, but trust me I don't think anyone is really ugly. People that are ugly are the ones that are mean and rude to other people and put people down. Just sometimes it takes awhile to grow into your looks - trust me, i was rather awkward as a teenager.
I think you should talk to someone about the way you are feeling. Don't be alone in your pain. I used to block everyone out of my life when I was depressed, never letting them know how I feel. Now I understand my self better, if I feel I am feeling a bit depressed, I talk to people I trust, write my feelings down and remember that its never the end of the world. Tomorrow is always a new day, a day to start again.
It can feel like you are at the bottom of a very dark deep hole that you just can't get out, but if you look really hard you can see there is a light, it may be dim but its there. There is always a way out of the darkness, just talk to someone.
There are people out there that want to help. I know a lot of the stuff I said sound cheesy and you can rubbish it but just try to talk to someone

I was once. Now I am a middle aged man who spends most his time alone, and comes here to rip the world a new a-hole every day for having been so mean to me. Seek help, as the man says. It need not be that way, and it will only get worse.

you say this like you are proud of what you do.
There is no point in cutting your wrists ok i do understand people see it as a release but there are so many other ways to try before you cut wrists.
In my opinion it is seen by younger people as a fashion thing or statement...i cut my wrists and what? it just shows that you are not willing to help yourself by finding out why you feel the way you feel and even how to solve it.
Go and seek help, no matter if there is more people like you out there it is not going to help you and your problems.
Everyone has been somewhere they dont want to go with me it was depression however im currently working on it and hopefully having better days.
Try and solve your problems and stop putting yourself down. easier said than done as i know but try! you have nothing to loose.

Ignore the horrible comments that people have made, I used to self harm as I got bullied at school. I found it extremely hard to talk to someone about self harming because I'm the kind of person that keeps things to myself. I regret not saying anything, because if I did, it could've been sorted out. I really and truly hope that you get through this. All the best =)

I don't understand why you feel yourself to be unattractive,and what is unattractive anyway.Everyone has something special about them.Cutting your wrist is not cool either because you can hit a vein or artery and bleed to death.Try doing something positive that makes you feel good about yourself.I am mostly alone myself,but I exercise and try to keep in shape to make myself feel good about myself.It works believe me.Good luck buddy and please don't cut yourself.
