I've just recently got likes on a old Opuss .. It's called 'Cutting'
I wrote it months ago .. I barely remember. My life has changed so much for the better. I was lost in despair. Terrible things were happening to me. I just lost my direction in life. Suicide crossed my mind many of times .. I was in a terrible state of depression. It was really bad, but things got better. They always do. Trust me. So don't start cutting because you feel as if will help deal with your problems or because you think cutting will make you feel better. Cutting is so ineffective! There are people that show off their cuts to make people think "Wow .. You're so strong!"
I honestly don't think they are .. If they were truly strong, they wouldn't of turned to cutting anyway.
Just my thoughts, no hate and remember if you can't see light at the end of the tunnel, then it's not the end. Think about these words .. Remember these words .. Because I won't stop until I grind these words into everyone's head and stop with all this cutting bullshit!

Cutting.
I need to let everyone know I haven't cut myself before, I have tried to but I didn't. That's the good thing. I promised myself I will never try it again.

Thank you and you are strong. Perhaps others have moments of weakness, but can still find strength to stop, however I think it irresponsible by some to perpetuate the myth that cutting provides a coping mechanism. It can only lead to further negative emotion.
@Burrfoot I 100% agree .. I think the problem today is society. There is all these teenagers cutting because they feel not worth it because they get bullied for being flawed. What others don't realize is we are all genetically flawed and there is no need for bullying and of people wouldn't bully I don't think there would be much low self esteem in people so probably not as much cutting
I think its just one of those situations where its different for everybody and affects many people in different ways. I used to condone it so much before i fell into depression. And i still do. But just because i fell into the habit does that make me a weak person? You have to completely understand someones personal situation before judging them on self harm. Yes, we all know its wrong. Yes it has no REAL benefits. But we have to try to remember to understand that differen't people cope im different ways. We know its wrong. But do they? :)
@Larko Ok .. I see your point. I just honestly have no idea how people cut to deal with depression .. I guess people just feel better about themselves afterwards? I honestly dunno. I want to stop cutting by taking these people and showing them something else they can enjoy like for me I enjoy writing.
@Larko we are not judging you at all honey, you have to understand that, it's the fact that kids can be influenced by the message behind a post, my intention wasn't to make you feel worse, but to just change the way you describe the physical act. You have shown strength within your character by writing about it. So we applaud you for that. But sometimes the hidden message makes cutting look glamorous and I know from experience that this is certainly not the case, it comes from a dark and lonely place. @DarkPrincessGirl you've written this so beautifully and your earlier comment sums it all up perfectly. I hope you both know that we are all here to support you both ๐๐ช๐ช
@DarkPrincessGirl To me. Personally, the rush it gave me made me forget the problems and anxietys in my head. But thats just me. The pain releases serotonin, a natural breif feel of elation. But thats the thing. It was only after i did it that i realised. THIS DOES NOT HELP. It only makes things worse in the long term. But i hope you can see my side of things, and prehaps sympothise as to why people do it, even though we know its not beneficial.
And your right, making people realise its wrong is such an inportant thing and i hope i can help you with that :)
