How can I stop cutting?

throw the razor, knife or whatever u use out in the backyard or in the woods so you can never find it again.

Then put all your anger into something else like running or screaming into a pillow. scream as loud as you can. write down whatever's bothering you. write it in a journal, type it out on microsoft word, play a game on the computer or whatever game system you have. go shopping or something like a walk in the park.

this is temporary relief bt take a hot bubble bath or take a shower & use your favorite body wash.

these things help me when i get depressed.

I've never had an experience cutting, but i have helped people stop. my advice to you is do channel your anger and pain somewhere else. write ur pain, worry, and confusion on a peice of paper. read it out loud. no rip it up and burn it. watch the paper burn, watch ur pain dissinegrate. and about your cutting: it's hard to suddenly quit. it takes baby steps, just like any other addiction.. take a rubber band, or a bracelet and snap it when ever ur angry, it's better than cutting urself.. and avoid sharp objects. it'll be alright, you just need to have determination to get through it. email me if you want anymore advice, i'm here for you.

think about this logically....whats the point of cutting urself?....think how would u feel if smone else u knew was cutting himself or herself.....get a punching bag...cry to urself.....but remember.....we control our own destiny....the things that happen to us mostly are consequences of our own actions and we can change them;......whats the point of cutting urself?

throw away whatever youre using to cut yourself and just stop

what about religion.. read a bible.. what do you feel you are accomplishing with cutting.. why are you so depressed.. write these answers down and read them over.. you may find it difficult to answer and if you do you may see how silly the answers are.. there are a lot of people out there who have it far worse than you.. you're alive.. what could you be depressed about.. try exercising to let go of your frustrations.. get those grades up.. I like to jog when i'm upset or work out.. i have a punching bag that is a way better alternative to cutting.. no more scars okay, please.
