spaggle Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Hi guys, heres another random poll, out of those who self harm who does it to 1) feel something 2) get the attention they need 3) get angry and just do it 4) wake up in the morning and find it there. If anyone else has any other reasons plz inform. Link to comment
NKP Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 I use do it because i hated life and wanted to hurt myself because i believed thats what i deserved Link to comment
ButterflyWrists Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 to get away from emotional pain Link to comment
PRSOV Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 I don't do it because I don't believe that hurting myself physically will solve my emotional problems. Link to comment
lilac_indi Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 i did it but only once...i did it because i felt that was the only thing in my life i had control over. Link to comment
InaneCathode Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 I don't do it because I don't believe that hurting myself physically will solve my emotional problems. Eh, more complicated than that. It's a psycological problem, just like a paranoid schizofrenic doesn't actually believe the MLB is spying on them with a space sattelite. Link to comment
Managor Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I think there are more than just those 4 options Spaggle Anyway, I'll go with 'to punish myself'. Link to comment
AnotherBrokenDoll Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Im a mix between 1 2 and 3 and to get rid of the pain i feel inside Link to comment
eMICHELLEa Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I started cutting and bruising myself badly becasue I hated myself and felt I deserved nothing but the worst..Also becasue I was in so much emotional pain that I felt the need to even it out by having physical pain also..It was never far attention becasue only people I don't know are aware of it..I make sure it is hidden either on my side or upper legs.Now I still do It because it has become a habbit..And I just can't imagine not having any pain at all..

EmptySoul Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Depending on the day: To feel, not to feel, because I hated myself and felt like I deserved it, because I liked the way it looked, because I was addicted....there's so many reasons and they vary from person to person. -E. Link to comment
Cossett Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Hi all, I cut myself to ease the pain inside and to take my mine off the pain in my hand at least it's the lesser of two evils. Cossett Link to comment
Newo Ikkin Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Purely punishment. I was giving myself what I deserved and was getting verbally and emotionally from other people. Waking up in the morning felt good. Wounds were sore, but you knew the pain hadnt gone inside. So it fuelled another session. I dont do it anymore, and I'm not trying to give people considering it the wrong impression. But I'm not ashamed. Link to comment
Moon Goddess Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I guess all of the above and other than that I feel pain inside, and hatred against myself. Link to comment
Lasko Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 1. punish myself for what I thought was wrong 2. did it to feel the pain 3. watch myself bleed (I know it sounds insane) Link to comment
thyroxine Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I didn't realize what I was doing, so I can't really express my motivation for it. Unfortunately, I cut my face. I honestly can say I blinked out and after a bit, came to that my face was bleeding. I know that might sound strange...I think it is too. At least I have a job where I can pass off the cuts as work related (I'm a vet tech.) Link to comment
BrokenBlackWolf Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 1, 3, and 4, i also love the sight of myself bleeding, i like the taste of the blood also(so sometimes i dont even do it for emotional things, sometimes i just want to taste the blood) at times i feel i am no longer alive, so i cut to make sure there is still blood flowing through me Link to comment
Jess90 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I used to cut for two main reasons... 1. Anger at myself. For messing things up, for not being pretty enough, smart enough, funny enough etc. 2. Anger with others. I'd get angry with other people, one in particular, but because I loved them, especially him, I couldn't hurt them so I hurt myself instead. Link to comment
resf12587 Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 i used to because i felt like it was the only way i could feel anything. it assured me that i still could feel. Link to comment
jessicaxxx Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 i did it for none of those reasons. i didnt like the people who did it for attention. but i didnt do it to punish myself or to forget about my other problems. its hard to explain why i did it.. basically i wanted to see myself bleed, like one person said before. it sounds insane, but i wanted to see the blood and new scars.
