Since when did everyone on ATRL become experts and know-it-all's on severe depression?

That's odd.
I do it in places where ppl can't see. I have no intention of ppl finding out.

When this thread was born.

I pray for people who cut themselves because it shows they have issues with their mind and need to be loved.

The suicide threads too...

Let's ****ing not, don't speak on it if you don't know what the **** you're talking about. Not everyone who cuts their-self is suicidal, some cut their-self as a stress reliever, people cope with stress in different ways. Some people overly eat when they're depressed which is known as an "emotional eater" -- people don't cut themselves because they're "attention whoring"

Cutting is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. I can'ttt even express how idiotic I think it is. I just don't even wanna get into it.

I can't say I haven't done it....

People cut themselves coz they're frustrated, aren't comprehended, suffer from issues like bullying, need a lot of help but nobody doesn't understand, they feel a painful ache in the heart, they miss something without knowing what, then they prefer to cut themselves in hope that the physic pain is more harmful than the emotional pain, you know, when you're cutting yourself seeing the blood draining you feel such a big adrenalin that for some minutes makes your pain disappear, it's like a stress reliever. It's a bad habit though.

This seems like a big thing in the emo crowd. I'm not saying everyone who is emoish does it, but I know many people say it's an emo thing, and I have yet to meet anyone from another crowd that does it.

This is a emotional issue with me.

I used to cut myself. I was going through some dark times. I used to cut my self in the bathroom at school. One time cut my wrist with 3 big slits then i went to class bleeding i was rushed to a mental institution and everything i was one big cry out for help. I saw how dangerous it was getting and i stop i am close to cutting veins i could have died. I still have scars to this day people ask me do i still do it all the time. i say never again.

I thought this was about cutting classes in college(which I've done several times)

Some of you girls need help and Jesus.

I used to do this.

Albeit, my parents were hardcore addicted to drugs, I was still in the closet, and I was also heavily bullied.


However, I don't do it now, and I don't regret it.

The scars remind me of the dark places I used to be, and it gives me strength to go on with whatever hardships I experience nowadays.
