Should i cut myself?

I found a tiny, sharp knife and I really want to use it on myself. I've had depression for about a year now, and I just wanna take it all out on myself because I am to blame for it all. I also have a cat who scratches and bites me all day, I can just tell my mom it was her if I cut. Should I do it? Should I cut?

  • My whole left arm is filled with them. Don't do it. The scars stay, the need for attention goes away but the scars won't.

    It's not worth it. I wish I could go back and bitchslap young me for doing it.

    I know people living in this world are all alone, no matter you have a family or not. Your mom or your kids or your husband/wife will all leave you alone someday(death or other things take them alway), you will have to live strongly by yourself. Now learn to live strongly like a man...

    Don't be a pussy!

    No, don't be an idiot. I cut myself when I was 18 and ten years later I still have the scars. I'm well over my depression and the scars remain as a constant reminder about how stupid I was to mutilate my body. Don't make the same mistake. It's also incredibly embarrassing when dating people because they see the scars and they know exactly what they're from and it makes me look like damaged goods or mentally unstable - which I certainly am not anymore. Cutting yourself is like getting a swasticka tattoo, it's a mistake that will haunt you for the rest of your life.

    I see this was posted a week ago... Hopefully you haven't cut yourself. If you have, please stop now.

    I started cutting myself when I was 22 and I thought I could stop any time I wanted, so I continued to cut myself. I was dead wrong. I'm about to turn 25, and I'm still cutting. I have 200+ scars, they're ugly and I get stares from people in the summer time, it's horrible. But I'm still cutting, because it's turned into an addiction and I can't seem to stop, even though I've tried several times.

    I struggle with gender identity issues and I hated myself, and that's why I started cutting in the first place, because it was helping me cope, but I wish I had never made that very first cut. I'm scared that one day I'll accidentally cut too deep and die, or if that doesn't happen, then get a bad infection and die from that, or possibly lose a limb from infection. And I'm hurting not only myself, but also my brother. He knows I cut and it hurts him deeply, and he wishes I'd quit.

    Please DON'T cut, you will end up hurting yourself and the people who love you.

    If you have spiders under your skin then yeah. But if you're just doing it for attention make a porno instead.

  • No. Don't. You are way too precious for that, my dear. I assume you want to do it because of the temporary physical pain can numb the mental pain, and instead of cutting and hurting your body you can for example hold in ice which gives you pain but no harm... If you want, you can DM me.

    Please don't. It's not a good way to deal with things. I did it myself and look at my scars every day and it embarasses and irritatates me. It's not worth it.

    Self harm will get you nowhere. It is often a symptom of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Read this -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_personality_disorder

    ive been there, just look for the bright side of the dark side. all it does is leave a scar and the memories lye within them. so it will just make things worse. things happen for a reason and that reason you may not know yet but sometime you may come to find it.

    DO IT!!

    The release of pain is such a rush as you cut yourself. You'll literally feel your inner torment disappear as you cut and bleed out.
