I CUT myself

DG, the fact she has kids is the ONLY thing that gets to me. It's the only thing that got to me when she made her arguments FOR meth in another thread, and it's the only thing I care about with her cutting. You're absolutely right with what you said. She thinks things are fine and hidden from her kids because as long as she's doing this, she's living in constant denial. When (hopefully when and not if) she stops these things, she's going to have to start a long road of accepting what she's done and forgiving herself for having done it. Her children will forgive her and be so incredibly ecstatic that their mommy is all better.

NDP, I would just implore that if you love your kids the way you seem to, to think about them and all the possibilities of the negative effects of your actions. Think about the worst case scenarios and how that might destroy your children. Think of them BEFORE you think about your own needs or "logic" about your use. Your children are much more important than your ability to prove your points (which sadly are not correct).
 
Hahaha, the way you make it sound is that her children are sharp enough to be used as cutting tools that she can slice herself open with.
 
LOL I was thinking the exact same thing when I first read that, I actually had to read it twice to figure out that wasn't what he was talking about.
 
I have never cut. I will never cut. I know people who cut. They may hide their scars on the outside, but the scars on the inside still shine through. It is an unhealthy habit, just like drug abuse. If I were you (which I am not), I would find a better way for catharsis. Punch concrete blocks or try to cruch soda cans with your head, both of these activities hurt, so the pain is there, and hell, you might even bleed some. Also, the worst you could do is break your hand or get a concussion, but, isn't that the whole point? To hurt yourself? Cutting is a gateway addiction, next you will be burning yourself or even using bigger knives or razors. You will end up dead, and no one will care.
 
Well I know it's hard, but finding another outlet is possible. You just need to find something that is similiar but less addicting. I don't know about cutting, but I do know about addiction. My mom was addicted to drugs, and now she is in a methodone clinic and hasn't took an oxy since. So just try and find something that is as much fun, and a little safer. That is, if you really mind people looking at you like that. Because society will never think of it as "normal".
 
Well I haven't done any cutting in years, but for me if I was in a state of emotional hell whether depression or something else taking a blade to myself made the emotional shit go numb so it was really easy to deal with. Think of Major Payne "Want me to take your mind of that wound?" and he breaks the guys finger.
 
Hey, whatever works. She said that she don't like the way people look at her scars, and if that is true, then she needs to find another way of expression, because no one except for other cutters will like it. If someone sees that they only think "that is a cry for attention". And even if thats not true, thy will think it. So if you don't mind the stares, and you enjoy yourself (I personally don't get it), then my only other advice is to be careful.
