Do You Ever Intentionally Injure Yourself?

No judging people, calling them Emo, or whatever.
i used to for a long, long time until my mom finally notice. my arms looked like someone put them trough a shredder. she bitched at me and said it was cliche to cut my wrists. great mom. i love her.
Yes. I did eraser burns when I was in 7th order. People who I thought hated me even got concerned. My mom was so confused and hurt after she found out I did such a entity. I still have the scars. They remind me everyday of what I did. I keep trying and trying to carry them off, but it honestly never works. I wish I never did it.

I couldn't even talk to a shrink or counselour. I just can't. I have no idea why. I go a Yahoo Answers for advice, and got help from the internet anonymously. II met some really nice populace here, and it was a way to help other teenagers out. I'd probably still be doing it if it wasn't for this website. I know the internet isn't the best cure, but it's better than doing zilch.

People who laugh at it, or say bad things going on for it just don't understand that it is a mental disorder that you can't help. Not only just "goth" or "emo" kids do it. Regular teens do it, and more often than most may think. The people who gurgle at it have probably never had to go through that since. They simply don't understand. Source(s): Giggles
You call for to talk to someone before you hurt yourself seriously. I'm not making fun, I just conjecture that isn't healthy.
This is really personal but I focus its time I tell this story I have been adjectives myself for the pass 2 years. I know what people are thinking but you haven't been through the **** I be through. Ok I'm not gonna cry. I just starting burning myself about 2 days ago. This is my most deepest darkest secret and I know race are thinking why tell it on yahoo. It's time for it to be out. I don't know if I can stop. It's has become part of me. I know culture think I'm crazy but I really don't wanna explain myself. Just know I have been through so much. If you turn to one of my other questions I have told some stuff up there.
I'll scratch myself/poke myself with a pencil rock-hard enough to leave a mark, but not satisfactory to break the skin. Just when I'm upset, for a second the pain that I feel inside goes away.
I threw myself down a flight of stairs once.


[I was at the Airport, moving to England when i be about 8, and I remembered someone saying to me that if you're sick or injured, you can't go on the plane. So i threw myself down the stairs thinking that I'd unsuccessfully injure myself... I got right back up with not a chisel -_-]



;]
Yeah, I own.
I cut myself.
I used to purposely make my cats scratch me, to the point where I would bleed, because I be scared to do it myself, and then I later cut my legs beside my razor. [on purpose, not like accidentally while shaving] It used to make me be aware of better for some reason, but now I don't do it anymore.
Answers:    I purposely rided [rid? roded? gah. forget it. I suck at spelling] my bike into a tree to see what would ensue.. My bike got busted.

xD
*Hangs head in shame*

Not adjectives or anything...I'm terrified of cuts.
Pills...Alcohol...some other things...
My liver is going to be absolutely shot by the time I'm 20.
Burns..."accidently" dropping sharp knives...falling down stairs...

I used to not imply to, I really did, I was just clumsy.
I'm not clumsy anymore, but I still do. =/

=]
when i get really mad i pinch my arm to quiet myself down.
Yeah, since I was about 9, I'm 16 now.. I've scratched myself, biting, adjectives & recently started burning myself.. its kinda a distraction to my past.. like, I focus on the anguish for a while instead of what happened..
Well I don't know if this counts, but I jumped contained by front of a somewhat slow-moving car for fun knowing that I would get hurt.

I think it be worth it though seeing all the looks on the faces of people walking by. Source(s): .

Have a great year
When I'm upset sometimes lacking noticing I bite my bottom lip really hard. It's sort of intentional, my body wants to do it but subconsciously I don't. Eh, confusing. I also bite my lip when I'm bored >.< xD
Well, I used to cut, I still have the scars.
I merely recently stopped.
I slap myself when I'm really fed up.
& once I tried to choke myself..
Yup. I've cut myself. I was pretty pissed. But that be a one time thing... To be honest, it felt good, but I enjoy more sense than to do that again.
Yes, I've been adjectives myself for a few years. (scratching, burning, razors)
My parents died awhile back and one of my best friends committed suicide last week. I grow up in a horrible town (seriously, there's shootings and robberies, stuff resembling that). A lot of my friends drink, smoke, and do drugs. And my family sucks.

Hah, I'm really complaining. Sorry.
I don't care if people insult me, it doesn't really concern. It's just the internet.
I used to cut myself, because I was depressed and wanted to incentive myself pain. But I don't anymore.
i cut myself for 2 years..
yes
in abundant ways
cutting
starving
over eating
burning
hitting walls
alcahol
drugs
cigarets
anything really

because im **** up
I cut my legs near a razor when i am angry with people, i hold only done that like 3 times though.
I scratch up my stomach beside hair pins and needles when i am upset and don't feel i can talk to anyone give or take a few why, sometimes i will cut words into my stomach/legs if thats all thats on my mind.
I scratch my arms when i am nervous or similar to scared, i normally scracth so hard that it bleeds, when i am upset or w/e i will pull at my hair and dig my nail into my arms. i have burned myself like 2 times before in recent times to see if it helped me more than cutting...

i AM going to see a counselor in roughly a week about all this though, so hopefully i will be happier soon? =]

*huuuuuuuuuuuuugs*
One time I freaked out and started hitting and scratching my face while crying hysterically.
yea a few times
I slapped myself once.
I don't really know why...

Yes, I've cut myself on two different occasions.

I've purposely fell out of a tree trying to break something. I didn't though.

I cut myself the first time because my uncle was calling me a b*tch, lazy, no well brought-up, etc.

The second time I cut myself was because I was having problems near my bf.
yes
but it's a little personal
I was depressed a couple years ago and I do admit to cutting myself a few times. But never ample to shed any blood. But I'm better now :)
of course not i hate pain
I used to cut and scratch up my arms with safekeeping pins and pencil sharpener blades, hurt myself with my own fingernails, burn my legs with my straightening iron, and sometimes force myself to not eat for a short time of year of time (a couple days at the most)

It just seemed like everytime something virtuous would happen to me something bad would follow right behind it, so I be trying to keep my unhappy so I didnt have to business deal with that and I didn't see the point of trying to always find the happy side. Then my boyfriend be there and he was unintentionally helping me (he didn't know what I be doing) and so far I haven't cut myself in weeks, I've been eating, and the just thing i've really done is burn my thigh twice in the past couple days.
no - you would own to be mentally disturbed to want to do that.

Edit: Just so everyone knows I'm not trying to be mean or insult anyone but it isn't exactly normal to want to hurt yourself. If anyone feel this way they really should be seeking some sort of help and I'm saying that out of concern. Seeking help out is for the persons own good.
