Answer 17

Self harm is 3x worse then what the original pain was, first lets say you just brokeup with your boyfriend/girlfriend now that already hurts alot then you self harm that might not hurt you but now theres scars all over so u always remeber the pain and then u get criticized by everyone aroun you u. u guys get what I'm saying

Answer 18

3 for the price of 1 i dont think its worth it

Answer 19

yea i do. im dealing with that right now..

Answer 20

and no its not worth it but there is some psycology behind it.

Answer 21

scars depend on how deep u cut.

Answer 22

yeas of course but youll be able to look were you cut or whatever mutulations and remeber

Answer 23

Well teens self-harm because it's a psychological thing where if something hurts more than your emotions, it will help ease your emotional pain. I've heard that from somewhere.

Answer 29

Self harm usually are exposed to having a percentage of doing suicide... but all i can say is... dont give up... if u do suicide its cause ur a coward and cant with stand what life throws at you... A real soldier stays in the battle fighting even if he/she's the only one fighting... never run away in the face of war.. victory shall come sooner or later ^_^ <-- I live by that every day of my life

Answer 46

lol

Answer 47

personally i dont think that self-harm is smart. i get that you are hurting inside but what is cutting going to do to help? nothing. It will just make you hurt even more.


thats just my opinion no hate please

Answer 48

no hate. lots of people dont understand... cutting distracts your mind of the pain inside for a little while.. even if its just for a minute.. then you do it again.. wait.. then repeat..

Answer 52

It can become an addiction. Either way, ignoring emotional pain or trying to think of a physical alternative is bad.
