Re: Me, Cutting My Wrist with a Razor.
To each his or her own.... Everyone needs that bit of escapism. That rush of happiness. So do what makes you feel good. Life is to short.

Re: Me, Cutting My Wrist with a Razor.
claim anything you want, but those of us who cut and/or are trying to stop cutting, know better. there is definitely something wrong with cutting yourself, a person's natural healthy inclination is for self preservation and body integrity, (keeping your physical body intact). we want to get better, and we usually seek help when we are unafraid and financially able. it's been hard work, but i'll be a year cut free on may 8th and i'm damn proud of it. and we don't like to show it either, most cutters hide it with long sleeves, long pants, lot of bracelets, sweatbands, or we just plain cut where it isn't going to be seen. my scars are up so high on my thighs i can wear short shorts; i don't want anyone in my real life knowing this about me. at least think about talk therapy, and exploring why you enjoy cutting. self knowledge is a good thing. |

Re: Me, Cutting My Wrist with a Razor.
Not everyone who cuts does it for some dissociative or emotional reason and just because the above mentioned is the experience of the majority doesnt mean it is the experience for all. What about piercing, body modification or suspension (with hooks etc)? What about blood fetishists and couples into blood play? There are so many reasons people might want to cut themselves up, and while most are derived from some sort of a psychological anomaly, who says distancing yourself from what socially accepted as 'normal' is such a bad thing? Considering the absurdity of what is accepted in society, such as the need to lie and manipulate to get ahead and oppression of altruism, cutting yourself up for some kind of masochistic pleasure really isn't so bad, or is most likely a symptom of these natural social progressions. |
