      Not cool. It's a HUGE issue if it gets too far, to even joke about it..............

    why not try hitting the ground or wall instead of letting yourself bleed it kind of helps, a lot.

    You are looking for attention in the wrong place.

    It's common and no, it's not normal. It's a cry for help. Talk to a trusted adult to help you cope.

    I am 47 years old and as a teenager cut to help release my pain that I could not express.
    A couple of years ago, dealing with life and matters of the heart, I did it again. Dealing with pain isn't easy and no one understands how bad you can hurt....You can't explode or blow up from pain, but it kills you none the less and the cutting releases something...
    It's not right, but...

    Threw away my box of razors a couple days ago. It was tough, but it's not worth the scars and limitations you've set up for yourself down the road. I hope you stop, take care [:

    I used to do this when I was a teenager , I was going through some difficult times and thought it helped, so I understand completely. You should start keeping a journal then you can let all your feelings out and no one would ever know and everytime you go to cut yourself just think of the horrible scars you will be left with that will soon put you off , I now wish i'd never cut myself because I have horrible scars all over my arms and legs. I hope this helps a little x

    no it is not normal and if u continue you r bound to hurt or kill u. I know this from experience. i got so depresed and insecure of myself and slit my wrist and my mother came in and rushed me to the doctor and had stitches in my wrist for 3 weeks or longer can't remember i was thirteen. i would go see some one 4 help cuz im telling u ur not safe at all. STOP

    It is very common, but still abnormal. My friend told me, of when his father got cancer, he cut a smiley face onto himself. Well he tried, and he was like wtf? Why do emos do this. We was depressed for a while but ah well

      Correction, it's not JUST "emos" that cut themselves. Actually, many of them don't. It's just a stereotype -_-

    Headbutt a door or something, or get you're "friends" to throw rocks at you. Problem solved.

    This is probably one of the most normal things that teenagers go through at some point.
    You'll get through it, dying is a big fucking step, I doubt you would ever actually kill yourself.

    No sweetie it will not help; you might feel good doing it but you should try to find other things to express your anger/sadness on like many teenage boys a suggestive one is breaking stuff (do not go around breaking everything you see) and be safe! But cutting is not the answer!!!

    It's probably more accurate to say that it SEEMS like it helps. Just like drinking or smoking seems to help.

    The truth is, it doesn't help. More likely, what you're feeling is a release of endorphins from the pain as well as a sense of satisfaction from hurting yourself, maybe because there's some reason you think you "deserve" to be hurt.

    It's amazing what we do to ourselves, especially when we consider that if it was someone else treating us that way, we'd be pissed.

    So long answer short, no, not normal. And talking to someone like a counselor, doctor or minister would be a good start. Good luck.
