Well, as a person who used to self harm quite uurrrmmm... severly, Lol, i know what people who do it feel like. I think the main problem with it with me was that i became rteally dependant on it, i used to do it just to bleed, never to kill myself, so that i would feel something and feel like a normal person. This is because i was 12 and all the other boys were fancying girls and saying that gay wasn't normal and all that stuff. So it was being in the closet among other things that made me do it. I found that when i started it helped but then people would bully me because of it and be reallt patronising and i was called an attention seeker alot, which would make me do it more :/. When someone finally reached out to me and said that it was ok and that alot of people did it but that it was still dangerous and helped me through it all, it just helped alot. So since, i have found that if i talk to people, and all you other people should aswell, that are going through the same problems as i was it really really helps. Also when they stop doing it, still carry on talking to then, as 3 years on since i stopped i still feel like i need to do it sometimes but im lucky that i now have a good group of friends to talk about my problems to XD. So the main thing is to talk about silly everyday problems as that really does help.
