I know it's wrong to do and i don't encourage it by any means. but i do wish people were a little more understanding. i know all i wanted when this was happening to me was to stop it.
to stop cutting, to stop feeling the way i did, to stop feeling like a freak, for others to stop looking at me the way they did when i couldn't hide my scars. i didn't want attention, i didn't want to be accepted. i wanted help, a way out, and someone to listen to me.

If you cant handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best.

Be kind. Remember everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

I don't see the logic in that plan, if you want help you better ask for it instead of cutting for release AND attention

thats not WHY i was cutting.
and i can't say i completely understand my own actions either. it's complicated i guess.

Patients who self-harm are being allowed to do so under supervision in hospital in an innovative scheme.

The practice is being allowed as part of a six-month investigation into the care of people who self-harm at St George's Hospital, Stafford.

Patients are allowed to carry on cutting themselves, but are also offered substitutes such as holding ice cubes or wearing tight elastic bands. link [news.bbc.co.uk]

What do you think?

did you actually read it?

It was basically an experiment in teaching people to use other forms of self abuse that are less likely to lead to infection and scarring.

Haven't read all the posts on this thread, but personally I think it would be worth trying.

I've never self-harmed myself, so don't have as much of an insight as perhaps other members do, but speaking to people close to me who do made me realise that it isn't all about attention. The people i've spoken to seemed almost addicted to it, it was like their way of coping almost.

I really don't know much about the situation, but I think everything is worth trying.

I have self harmed in the past.

Always in private, never around other people, and always in a place that no one would see.

I do actually think, if other self harmers thought in the same way as me, that it'd be a good idea.

If they did think like me, they wouldn't want to do it while under constant supervision or while someone was watching over them, and therefore it would be effective

patching them up is costing a lot, its better to look for a long-term solution rather than heal the skin ready for fresh cutting.
