This poem I wrote when I was shall I say mad and thought about doing something I knew I shouldn't doas in cutting if any of you know what that is but don't worry i haven't done it yet you dont know what it is ask me! I've thought about it alot I just don't want to get caught Will it take away my pain and fear or will I have guilt throughout the year? I've never done it before will it be the cure? I'm afraid to try will I get caught up in its lie? I know if someone finds out they'll say Its not a good habit just throw it away and then I'll say its my damn life Its the only thing I have to get rid of pain and strife No one can help me not even you So go away and just let me be blue But I know deep down its not right maybe someone could show me the light bye 4 now Silent ps its long but please reply |

Hi SS Firstly when I read this poem I felt terribly bad about this...I have thought of banging my head into wall when I was let down by the person I loved...Its diffficult to control such things...but its going to ruin you..your physical and mental health..I dont know what I'm saying..but stay calm..I have faced it..but I endured the pain.. Sincerely A_L |

Silent Soul~ Wow! Cutting does NOT sound like any kind of answer! This really scares me, I don't know what kind of pain you are feeling or who hurt you, but cutting yourself isn't how to HEAL yourself. It frankly sounds retarded. (sorry no offence meant to anyone) Talking to someone-anyone sounds better. I don't have all the answers, when I hurt, I write poetry, not always very good, but it makes me feel better. I don't understand how hurting yourself can make you feel better...do something positive for yourself, not distructive. If this is a "cool" thing or "in" thing believe me it will be "out" soon enough. Please don't hurt yourself. Ok? -SEALive,Love,Laugh :) ~SueB |

If you are refering to cutting in the term that I know it (from experience), you will harm (or cut) on yourself.... kind of like hurting yourself to see if you still feel (as in the famous words of Trent Reznor). I know about this well. I have scars up and down my arms, throat, legs and stomach from cutting. Scars that I have had for about 9 years now... They don't go away. And it doesn't take the pain away. I would get an adreniline rush out of it... hurt myself like I so thought I deserved. And it made me feel better.... TEMPORARILY!!! The emotional scars cut a lot deeper and stay a lot longer, even show up better than those you can inflict upon yourself. And I am now embarassed to show my scars. People ask me all the time what happened. I was a teenager then (which is the most common age for this to happen) And now that I'm older, I realized what a waste it was. My body is a gift, and as much as I disliked it, I now see it as a blessing. I could be a lot worse than I am. There are easier ways to take the pain away.... talk to someone... go get therapy (I know that when people told me to go get therapy when I was into this, I would just roll my eyes and forget about it... but trust me, It works! they got me on meds that helped me out a lot and gave me an unbiased ear to listen to my problems). Another good thing is just realize that things really could be worse. There's so many things that you have that you're probably taking for granted... (I've lived a crappy life, and even I know that it could have been worse that what I already had). ok, I think I've been on my soap box long enough. Just trust me, I give good advise. And the best people to listen to are those that have been there. And I'm just barely out of my adolescent years, and I'm still learning. But I know that once I realized to take everything as a learning experience, I became a lot wiser and a lot happier. "It was my love that did us both to death. " -Sylvia Plath |

Silent soul, I have often felt like this and done it myself, until i FOUND A better way to release my aggresion and punish myself, it is something only you can solve, as you need to be happy about yourself, firstly try to relax, and whatever happens always stay calm and go at your own speed, let the rest of the world slow down, if you have the impulse to feel pain, which I know can be great, instead of doing yourself major damage with a razor/knife try punching a hard wall a few times and you will find it releaves you quite well without doing to much damage . Try getting a new hobby or meaning in your life to give you a sence of purpose . And abouve all else don't let what you do to yourself hurt others who care for you . Hope I was of some assistance .
