Answer 1

hi;people are very interesting creatures,we all are different and yet were so much alike.I see you,as a person,who has felt most of your life;unwanted,scared,insecure,yet outgoing(maybe)basicly someone wearing a false face,to hide,what you refere to as the real you.the reason that you do this is your afaid that if other's truely knew; they would not like or except you/or they would only recive you for feeling sorry for you and you do not want that,and i agree with you. that wouln't be right.
i do not belive that there is something wrong with you hun,i just think that you should either pray an ask God to forgive you,and help you to see yourself the way he does,as a wonderful person that he formed while you were still in your mothers womb(a beautiful person.Promise yourself that not only will you not do this again,but don't lie to yourself either;if you know deep inside that you really need help,then don't be afraid to seek that help.It's never wrong to desire to be better.ok?...take care now..listen your whole world is not going to fall apart because of anything incliding a boy friend do you hear what i am saying to you?get that out of your head,and fall prey to noone.God bless you always.

Answer 2

Go to the doctor and explain everything that happened, do it soon.

Harming yourself is a sign that something is most certainly wrong.

The reasons why people do this are various. But usually it happens when something is happening in your life that you feel out of control of. Either that or you have bottled up your feelings of hurt or anger and not released them anywhere. When these two things combine people find that hurting themselves can bring some relief and it does "feel good" or brings comfort.

Self harming can become a habitual pattern of behaviour and some people even claim that it's addictive. You need to go and speak to a medical professional who may be able to refer you to somebody who can get you some cognative therepy. This is basically re training yourself to learn how to cope with stressful emotions and express them in an unharmful and normal way.

You may also may want to discuss your drinking with the doctor, drinking too- could be something that you are using as a coping mechanism and that isn't good for you.

Please make that call to the doctor this afternoon, they won't judge you or brush off what you tell them

Answer 3

Yes,you should seek help from a medical proffessional immediately.You say that you've never thought about cutting yourself,but on some subconsious level you must have,otherwise you wouldn't have done it no matter how drunk you were.Drinking intensifies emotions and can be very addictive.Why do you think there are so many AA groups out there?You should also talk to your parents and a church member about this.You obviosly have a problem that needs to be dealt with before it gets out of control.

Answer 4

I think you do need to go see someone.
your gp will be able to refer you to someone that will be able to stem where the feeling came from, because its not neccissarily to do with the row, the row would have triggered it.
A friend of mine who is the happiest guy in the world grabbed a bread knife one night and cut his arms. he was very embarassed about it, and has'nt done it since, but i do think you need to get some help if it happens again, or you feel like doing it again.
If you need to talk about it, e-mail me and i can put you in touch with other people who know a lot about the subject(if i cant help enough).

Hope i have helped.

Answer 6

as quickly as whilst i advance into like 8(i've got nicely-known a thank you to apply the microwave via fact i advance into like 4. I in basic terms wasn't able to prevail in it till i advance into like 6)we've been given dinner at KFC and that i've got been given a sort of youngster meal issues. And it got here with a fruit roll up. IT advance into chilly whilst we've been given homestead. So I positioned it in the microwave. I knew that metallic or something like metallic could no longer flow in the microwave, yet I wasn't thinking and then as quickly as I took it out, it advance into all melted. My mom have been given mad via fact the microwave smelled like burned aluminum foil for each week or 2. Thats approximately it...i'm no longer allowed to grill something(i could probably have the homestead on hearth). I basically use the oven and the range whilst my mom and or dad is homestead.

Answer 7

You should go see some help immediately. 1st of all you knew people do it, meaning you knew it is also a sickness.
I understand you were drunk when you did it, but that's still no excuse. And 2nd of all you didn't know why people do it, so you tried it, but the part that worries me is that you actually liked it. yeah I think you need to seek some help.
Think if the roles were reversed. If your boyfriend did it to himself, and he says he wouldn't do it again. Would you believe him, after he crossed that line?

Answer 8

wot you have done is of course not good. but keep it in context. if it proves to be a one off it doesnt make you "mad" it was an expression how much you were hurting inside. wot is worrying tho is that you got a positive "hit" from it. if you find yourself contemplating doing it again seek help. seriously. Hopefully it will prove to be a one off experience and never repeat itself. but keep an eye on the door you may have opened. best of luck. being happy is a much better "hit" go for it.

Answer 9

maybe you should speak to someone, this was a an act for attention maybe or out of desperateness.
From now on try not to drink and when you do occasionally have only 1-2 drinks, that's it! no more than that because you are a danger to yourself when you are drunk.

Now did your boyfriend get back with you because he is afraid you will hurt or kill yourself or does he really want to be with you. Hopefully you haven't used this act of desperation as a tool to get him back and now he is forced to be in a relationship with you for fear that you will hurt yourself if he doesn't.

Answer 10

hey u.been there done that.the reason u felt better is cause u expressed yourself.physical pain is easier to deal with, and often u get so frustrated with yourself that u want 2 hurt yourself.find a way to express yourself, write, sing whatever. promise your boyfriend that u Will never do it again.my boyfriend asked me to promise him that, and just the thought of disappointing him in that regard stops me.if u feel uncomfortable seek help, just don't let it get out of hand.
