Cut

i've been there too,hon. cutting is not a rebellion, or a type of insanity. it's gaining sense of control. like, wen i did it,i felt so relieved afterwards. like, i'm so concentrated on how deep,long,and everything that my problems are gone. that ounce of pain that's left, is the only pain you feel. i g e t i t.

thats because certian people have to protect you from yourself namely parents. cutting is rebelion because you think it's your body and you can do what you want to to it. it's called rebeling and we all did it. but we all didn't cut we did something different. cutting is an admission of insanity you won't get a good job.

It's not psycho. It's a coping skill for a life filled with pain. Not a good coping skill but a common one for kids who have been sexually abused or who have been so physically or mentally abused that they feel they don't fit in. These are beautiful kids who have never received the love they deserve and many have been so hurt they have an easier time cutting than expressing their feelings. I've worked with approx 150 cutters mostly female. God Bless, Alexz. Vince
