Why are you cutting yourself?
ruinedeffect · 8 years ago
Stop cutting yourself. Flush the blades. Grab a marker. Every time you feel like cutting yourself, draw on yourself instead

Anything in particular that caused this?
the_gayming_singer · 8 years ago
Nothing in particular, but on the market point it... It feels good. I use a razor, like shaving razor, and that slight sting takes my mind away from all the stress in life... It's scerene, euphoric almost, probably cause of the painkillers in my brain being released making me feel high.

You need to tell a doctor about this. Yeah it might feel good for a while,but it'll make you crash and burn later. Plus unsightly scars. If you need to relieve stress,find alternatives. Gaming,singing...even porn. Just stop the cutting shit.

It doesn't leave scars the way I do it though. Again, shaving razor. Leaves marks that look like bruises that only last like 2 weeks.

Still unsightly. Either way,see a damn doctor about it.

You're still harming yourself. That isn't healthy no matter which way you do it.

You should stop. As a person who bounced back from that kinda thing, there are better ways to help cope. Cutting raises your risk of infection, and that is super unsightly. Get rid of your blades and exchange them for art. Like ruinedeffect said, draw on your wrists. That's something everyone can enjoy. If it doesn't take your mind off it, you're not drawing intricately enough. Visualize it and make it happen, don't ruin your canvas. Use your canvas. Get some gel pens if ya need. Or a coloring book. Or just do something healthy that you enjoy. No one wants you to hurt yourself. So please

Im cutting my legs (specifically thighs) with a shaving razor though. I need that shaving razor to shave

Okay, so then just stop using it for things other than shaving. Or if you need to, stop shaving so you aren't even tempted. Hairy body is better hurting yourself.

If you feel like you can't stop on your own, don't be afraid to tell someone and get help. I know it might be embarrassing or you might feel ashamed, but it's the right thing to do. Trust me, I get it. The way you described it is exactly part of why I used to do it. If the sting is what you're after, there are other ways to get that that don't involve cutting. I once saw something that had a whole list of alternatives, I could find it for you if you want. Try to stay strong.

What do you mean when you say you are sick? If you are fight a virus or infection, cutting can make it worse because your body if having to divide it resources between kicking the illness and healing the (even mild) damage from the cutting.
