hi im just new to this but i really need to talk to someone about hurting myself. i started cutting about 6 months ago then i stopped recently while i was on holiday with my family but now that im back home ive fallen straight back into my old habbits. i have 2 friends who knew i was doing it but they both think ive stopped now and i dnt feel like i can tell them that im still doing it. im not realy asking for help or advice, i just needed to let sumone know even if it is anonymously, but if anyone wants to leave a comment that would be great

" Heyy I know how you feel, I've cut myself before. Though I haven't been doing it for long. I've just been so deppressed lately, it was my last resort. No one knows I have, not even my closest friends. I don't know if i'll ever tell them. I dont need them to start to lecture me or start saying stuff about me. "

" thanx to evryone for ur messages.. i really ddnt expect any replies but they hav all helped so thank you.
i really hope at some point one of my friends asks me how im going so i can tell them like that because i realy want to tell them but i cant just blurt it out if that makes sense.
im a bit worryed that if my friends do find out im still cutting, that i will be expecting it to make me feel better, im scared i will regret letting them know again incase they dont understand this time "

" Well I have a lot of friends on here who cut to ease the pain they are in.My concern is how bad you do it.I to have these self hurt feelings though I have only tried cutting a couple of times it didn't do it for me but sometimes my friends tell me that they cut so bad and lose so much blood that they are in intense pain for ages and are passing out from blood loss.That is scary and very close to the death blow.How would get help.Its the best way to fight the battle and at least it will end the suffering we go through.Its no big deal.Every second person needs some type of help and do not be ashamed either.We all have our ways of coping.I am here if you need to talk.
