I really want to cut right now. I just found out a lot of life changing news. What do I do?

My dad is in jail, my bff is moving away and her parents are getting a divorce, new school too.

well, if it's an addiction to cut, try finding the one thing that makes you happy, and refer to that instead of inflict bodily harm, because I see your answers around a lot, and you seem like a nice person. Aside from that, Think of the philosophical phrase, "For every lock, there is always a key", and think of a way to solve your problem instead of seeing the glass half empty :)

I don't want to be rude, but one day you're gonna wake up and realize how stupid you were and you're going to have scars that will last forever, and everyone will ask about them, or is that what you want? Attention, a lot of people cut for attention. One day, you will, just wait, it'll happen, and you'll thank me.

Call a friend, or reach out to someone you normally wouldn't but want to. I did this the other day and surprisingly some people really surprised me by just listening to me.

Life is full of good stuff and bad stuff. Don't think about the bad stuff. Cheer yourself up! Dont punish yourself, life will punish you automatically!!! Nothing is accomplished by being destructive. There is so much fun ahead in your life. I have had many hard things happen to me in my life but good things too! I know you have too!! :)

So you found out some life changing news and you want to cut and run. You need to man up and deal with it. You cant be a kid and run and hide when you get some news you don't like. Grow up and grow a pair and deal with it. Sorry to be so blunt. But that's life. It's not always nice. But it's worth living it standing up not running away.

Look at yourself in the mirror right now and say I am a great person. I am a loved person. I am a person who does no deserve to be hurt. then go to some one you really trust and ask them to talk to you until the feeling passes. you don't have to tell them what you are wanting to do to yourself just that you don't want to be alone. but if you really trust them, let them in. they can be your go to person if they agree to keep you from cutting. ask your doctor for a referral to treatment programs. they really work. GO TO YOUR MIRROR NOW AND SAY THOSE THINGS. YOU ARE WORTH IT. and call your best friend and talk to your parents if they are near.

your welcome. have you looked in the mirror yet and said the words and called your friend? don't give up on yourself. don't reach for the blade either. reach for the mirror and the phone every time.

Yes. I have. Talking with my friend as we speak. It's really helpful. And I'll think of these words each time I want to cut. Your encouragement is really helpful and inspiring. I hope to seek help of my friends and end my cutting. Thank you SOO much.

I'm an experienced cutter, I havnt done it in months, what I did, is talk to the most trust person I know, ( not parents ) someone who will no judge you for what you say, listen to music, do sumthin that'll put a smile on your face or sumthin that you enjoy.
