Why do ya's cut

Why the hell do some of you cut
i've asked my friends why they do
they say it's helpful with emotions
How?
all it does is leave unsightly scarrs that you will have for any where from a couple of months to forever

ummm i do it cuzz i guess i take everything out on me but i need to make my mind think about something else and like ... i like to see the redness (even tho i no that sounds weird) and i like the pain...

im not a cutter, but ive heard that when you feel the pain, it sends something to your brain that tries to numb it or something. when this happens, it also temporarily relieves some emotional pain.

ok i like pain to
how the hell could physical pain releive emotional pain

i dunno exactly...i think a lot of it chemical

i duno it just does to me

It's calming. It makes you stop freaking out and stop crying so hard.

i do it because its like a stress reliever, it focus's all the pain onto that so you dont have to think about everything else that shi(t in your life.... i dont know why, i just do.

YEA!! sh lol i no wat u mean..

~ShAtTeReD*HeArT~

it just helps wen u cant get out ur emotion to have that outlet

it isn't for attention

we can all try to explain it but you will never see it threw our eyes if you havnt been there.

i rarely cut myself, but wen i do, i do it coz i care too much to hurt some people, so i hurt myself instead, it works for me, but now, i said to myself, it's better out than in, so i show my feelings and it doesnt stay inside. i don't do it out of sadness, i do it out of anger, some people just don't understand that and they don't feel our pain, but that's ok

Many people that cut.. They don't do it for the attention.. Some do and it's not right.. But I hide my cuts and scars from everyone around me.. For the fact that I hide my life and my emotions and put on my fake smile.. So I can show people that I'm "happy" even if I'm not... I cut for the fact of comfort and release of my pain.. The pain I can't talk about to others... So the "emotional pain" does turn physical.. It's not right but it's how so many survive..

idono why ppl do. all i have to say is, is that is lame.
like rele ppl, go cry me a river.

ENOUGH ALREADY. This is about the 259515812905819581095th thread asking the same question. Not one or three. There are TONS. Stop asking already.

Omg, I'm sorry but that's pretty inconciderate. We're obviously in pain, its just we don't know how to deal with things. I know that I'm really self critical and I always blame other people's mistakes on myself.
