Suicide and self harm!

I dont really agree with the whole I'm depressed feel sorry for me because I bleed thing. That's what we call self pity. It's not really serious, serious, depression pain if you're going around showing off the scars. I've cut, but it was a cosmetic thing. (like a tattoo) I was also kinda curious to see why on earth someone would do that. Yeah, it hurt! Problem is, now I can see how people get addicted. I think about it sometimes when I'm really mad (not depressed, but pissed off)) I havent done it since the first time, but I kinda wonder when or if I'll cross over that line again.

self harm wont solve anything. i have a friend who used to cut, and i really worry about her because sometimes i think she may be bipolar and that scares me because i love her dearly, shes like a sister to me, and i dont want her hurting herself. i cant say i fully understand it, but i do know that it wont fix your problems, it doesnt make life any easier. life doesnt get easier. but if you want to be happier, you have to surround yourself with people who care about you and want to help. and you have to want the help.

to "outsiders" who haven't done it, self-harm might not seem like it's helping at all.. but it does, in a short term.. sooner or later the cutters have to deal with it.. but to feel the freedom as the blood pours out..
don't talk about it being all bad if you haven't actually tried it..

but you still have to face the actual emotional and psychological problems. but as iwannajumpout said, the pain is addictive. and if you are addicted to the pain, thats one more thing you will have to face later. im not saying youre wrong, im saying there are other ways and in the long run you are making more problems to haunt you later that youre gonna have to face someday.

I agree..
people can't say that it's all bad, or all good.. that was my point..

i dont think that u r an attention seeker if u cut urself in public i just think u want show ppl how much pain u r feeling

This is a really sensitive topic for me, because I have had issues with wanting- and trying to kill myself. I also know somebody who cuts just to get attention, and she makes me want to rip her throat out through her asshole. It's something that comes with deep depression, though, if you're depressed enough to not want to live, you're going to not want to live, it's all a chemical imbalance.

i guess even knowing that there are alot of other ppl goin through the same shit, it still doesnt take away the fact that your life is contolled , to some extent, by a stupid little blade. im speakin frm experience and its frustrating trying to stop when it seems to make things all better...that sounds so stupid, but hey...i guess we're all kinda screwed in the head...i dunno, maybe im wrong. wrong. yea, thats me, wrong.

Self harm is wrong in my opinion. It just causes more pain and doesn't solve anything.

Like smoking. Your body, your choice.

In New York, jumping off a building is punishable by death. And in China, suicide is also punishable by death.

yeah but if they jump of a tall new york building aren't they gonna die anyway...and i think new york and china an option to die anyway by puttin them to death after the attempt...

I was depressed.... i was on anti-depressants... i cut my wrists and made myself sick... it was horrible. And yes i'm Irish..

But i got through it all.. well mostly.. Sometimes i still get really down and i remeber things from back when things were bad which brings me down.. But now i can talk to people about it.. I couldn't before so i attempted suicide 3 times..

Anyone who's going through depression just talk to anyone.. you might think it won't help but i promise it will... Just to be able to let it out in a way that won't hurt you feels amazing.. I'm glad i'm still here.. I do still think about suicide.. and when things get bad sometimes i seriously consider it but i know really that i want to be alive.

Because how am i supposed to marry Gerard Way if i'm dead?!?

hey, alot of people go through depression but suicide aint the answer...dont tell me that i don't know how you feel... i was depressed once about moving house 3 years ago... but try and focus on somethin positive...it's not a cure just a suggestion

hmm i still say sucide and cutting is wrong even thou i do it but i hate to see someone else do it cause it really gets me down ive talked alot of ppl out of sucide and cutting and i try my best to help them even thou im being a total hypocrite the best thing i can do is wen im depressed write a poem or something it really lets your feelings out and it dont matter if it sucks as long as you let your emotions out

i know, ppl feel sorry for u, or take the piss or look down onu if u do it, then u feel shameful

Though smoking effects to nature, killing yourself doesn't.
