I’ve been cutting for four years and this is my worst one. Normally I used just a regular serrated kitchen knife that you have to push hard to draw blood or leave a scar. Well, I guess I just didn’t realize just how sharp this exacto knife was. It was brand new to give you an idea. There’s not much to the story except I just did my usual routine of putting it up to my arm, taking a deep breath, holding it, and slicing. Only this time blood squirted everywhere and fat cells began protruding from an inch deep gash. I went into shock immediately, hyperventilating, dropping my blood pressure, and I got to the hospital in time. I did no major damage, but if I had just a little less fat on my arm, I probably would have bled to death or lost use of my right arm. I am sending this message to cutters: Make sure you know what you’re doing if you can’t stop yourself. But before you do something you will feel guilty about, force yourself to get out of your bedroom and talk to someone. Call someone, anyone, anytime, and even if you don’t get ahold of anyone, you will have delayed your cutting for five seconds. And that can be the difference between life and death. I am available to talk to all the time on the internet, my e-mail being abbyangel_21@yahoo.com. If you would like to add me to ICQ or Yahoo messenger, e-mail me and I will give you my information. You are worth living.
