I’m seventeen as of september 10th 2004. I have been cutting, burning, and pulling out hair four about two years now. I tried to stop but at the problem I had I ran back to SI.
I’m not trying to tell anyone who SI’s to stop because I don’t think it is stupid. I think that if anyone out there is calling someone who SI’s a freak, then they really are the stupid one, they don’t understand what we are going through, so who are they to judge? But I do want to say this, if you don’t cut, don’t start, it’s addictive as hell and it’s not the way to solve a problem. When I am in any sort of emotional turmoil I go running back to my blade, or glass, or any other sharp object that can hurt me, and it does not get any better, it gets progressively deeper as time goes on. I’m just dealing with my stress and depression and problems the best and only way I know how. I know this paragraph that i wrote might come off sounding a little hypocritical, but it’s just the way I feel about this topic.
If anyone wants to chat about it I would be glad to talk, I have no problem talking about it, I think that sometimes talking helps. My AIM is dawitch16me, and my e-mail is shoshanna@whoever.com.
