If anda cut, anda should damn well have a reason for it. O_o
Most emos cut out of pain. I'm sure anda know the story. "The physical pain masks the emotional pain" and all that shit.
Me? I sure as Hell am not emo, but I am a self-harmer. Why? Because it feels good, like a sort of natural high. It feels like something. It's as if the blood is proof of life in a world where I don't feel so alive anymore. I know, I'm such a fucking cliche, but it's the truth.
I really couldn't have berkata that better myself. I've only done it once, and even though I do kinda consider myself Emo (It is just short for emotional after all...) You're still absolutely right.
I cut because I want to. end of story. I like how it feels, yes it hurts and I like that. I'm not Emo but if someone wants to say I am them let them. If someone cuts they have a reason and I cant speack for anyone but myself I'm not about to try. Maybe i'm a bit messed up but that is my thoughts on the subject. If anda cut then anda have your reason and other peoples reasons dont matter.
I am a cutter but, I don't do it because I want attention it's because I had so much problems in life that it kept adding up and adding up. I started doing this when I found out my real mother died and then my great grandfather and then 2 months later a family friend died!! I have Lost everything in my life lebih of my disorders were Berlakon up, my emotions and I couldn't handle it anymore. I at times black out and don't know what I'm doing till minit later and I'm ashamed. I believe people do it for variuos reasons like they do it because they "love" the pain, maybe for attention, another reason because they have no one to go to no where else to go but, going to that makes them believe that cutting atau self harming is the only way to help anda release everything, and other things. But, people can believe what they want to for self harmers.
I sure hope anda don't think everybody here is emo...
Because they're weak and are too weak to get real help with their depression. Because some want attention and will do anything for it. Because they don't know what else to do other than cry and ruin their outsides to help cope with the ruins in their insides.
I'm surely not Emo >_< I cut my self when I feel like in "existential crisis" atau whenever I feel like cutting -.- It's kind of, instead of eating tons of ice cream and Chocolate and all sorts of candy, I cut my self to see how deep I can cut, how much pain I can handle... whatever. (sorry if my English isn't correct)
