Answer 1

for me it makes me feel like i have some control in my life

Answer 2

cut it what way

Answer 3

Partially because they dislike themselves so much they feel like they should punish themselves, so they physically harm themselves. It helps them feel release, and they feel like they deserve to be punished, so the pain actually makes them feel better.

Answer 4

it is a sign that they are having promblems or just need help in their time of need and I have friends who cut them selves and one that cuts hell in her arm and she did it bc of a boyfriend breaking up with her. I haven't told anyone this but I use to cut and I just kept saying it would get better and before it did it got worst and then it got better and it was hard to stop but I had all of my friends support and I am glad that I did @MilenaSaeger

Answer 5

Its a relief, like drugs, but like @makaylatracy said, it is addictive.Even what you're feeling better, you can't stop doing it. It's like your a different person when you become happier, and some people say that they want to b happy, but they don't. I value being upset all the time. I stopped taking my medication, just so I could complain about my stomach pains. Because if I don't feel them, I have nothing to complain about, I'm not myself. I have cut a lot. I cut when I'm bored, happy, tired. I cut. It's not always supposed to be a punishment on oneself. I do it because I hate other people, I don't hate myself. It relives stress.

Answer 6

ok yeah that makes a lot of sense but do u have an idea on how to get a person to stop<< @paytoncobain

Answer 7

Take their razors away, if that's what they use. Go over to their house and take them. Or you could threaten that if they do it, then its probably a great thing to do and that you're going to start. (Don't actually do it) But if they really care about you, they won't want you to do it, making them want to stop. Or maybe tell them that if any of their major organs began to fail, that if you have any cutting scars you cannot get on a transplant list and you'll have to die. Because that is true.
