so i was talking to a friend of mine from high school and i thought that he and i had gotten close enough and that he had grown up enough for me to talk to him about things that were bugging me but i guess i was wrong...
i told him that i had been a cutter since i was 13 and that it was a problem between me and my fiance and i needed to talk to someone about it and his response was... cutting is stupid im a fucking idiot...i should have never told him.... Posted on 07/17/08, 09:07 pm |

Verbal abuse is another way we victimize ourselves. I understood your post, you can type, and convey meaning, you are easy to understand and this obviously hurt you...You dont qualify for idiocy. Foolish? maybe...but i dont even think that what you did was foolish, the truth is, you were reaching out, seeking the help and support you need, few people understand us who havent walked in our shoes. I committed si for 32 years,(from 4yrs to 36yrs old) and have been free of it for the past 9 years. There are still struggles but I dont have to cut or hurt myself or call myself names either. Neither do you. If you are going to call urself names, you may as well make them nice names, like beautiful and amazing and talanted and inquisitive and supportive and loving and...u get the picture.

I think cutting helps you find out who your friends are.

Hi everyone,
This is a really big issue, and I see the problem is that people just do not understand that we would stop if we could. Talking to friends is something that can help and we try to reach out only to get burned sometimes. It is a catch-22 . However, I would rather someone close know and face the consquences, it can only make you stronger to face it either way in my experience. I am older though and not sure I would give the same advice to someone still in high school. If this is the case try a psychologist, it can help. We are not wrong... some people just do not understand. Peace
