Posts: 3663 | February 10th, 2007 at 05:27pm i honestly cant believe that this thread is still going
every now and then i come on gsb and just check up on old things
and this is one thats always still going
and it saddens me because there is so many people
just liveing a life of pain
i still have not gotten much better
but have improved far more since when i begun
cutting around 2 years ago
i avoid the wrists after a rather frightening accident
when cutting long ago scared me ever since
but now im aiming to stop completely
after i cut a little on my back
and my cuts usually
go away but these ones are still there and now
im worried there goign to be there for a long time
which means there going to show up when i go swimming etc.
but we learn from our mistakes right ? |

 | February 10th, 2007 at 09:18pm I know mattar-o-factly that I have depression. I cut myself, and much to my own fear, I think I'm kinda suicidal. The reason why I say "kinda" is because although I've never tried killing myself, or made plans in anyway, shape, or form, I have and do THINK about it. Mostly in moment's of great sadness, which lately happen alot and I'm kinda an implusive person......
I really want to get help. I've been dropping my mom hint's for quite some time, but she doesn't do anything about it or shruggs it off. |

Posts: 170 | February 11th, 2007 at 07:07pm i used to be suicidal, i guess i still am but i'm "smarter" about it now but my best friend attempted suicide and i had to call the ambulance for them.
to me it's one of the most frightening thing to hear your friend, BEST friend call you crying on the phone telling you she swallowed a bottle of over the counter sleep aids, it's not something that anyone should expirience.
so i guess i'll do my PSA now, if you or a friend is thinking seriously about killing themselves GET THEM/YOURSELF HELP.
some of the people i've looked up to and idolized have killed themselves, i find it baffling that they could leave people behind like that, influencing kids to follow in death, it's ridiculous, selfish, and irresponsible.
in the getting "smarter" i guess i was reffering to the state of mind that suicide can be okay though if you're really really old and have no real reason to stay alive anymore because you've accomplished everything you feel you could have acomplished in your life, like suicide with a sense of completeness i guess. |

Posts: 411 | February 11th, 2007 at 08:13pm man, this topic gets people so wired. i swear, the other day my "friend" and i started arguing because he kept calling it stupid, and how people who do it [we were discussing my best friend, so naturally i got angry (especially since i used to cut and be suicidal)]. he said she should get some self-respect and quit being so stupid.
it's a personal choice, you know? and instead of judging the people who do it and play the "blame game", someone should talk to them and just listen. or at least understand, you know? you don't have to approve of it, just learn to accept that a friend is what they need at that moment. it's just a reflection of how they're feeling inside.
argh, and here i go. this is a lot longer than i meant for it to be... |

| February 12th, 2007 at 08:37pm We had a huge conversation about suicide in my english class and I really couldn't belive how people reacted.
In my opinion, suicide is a personal decision, and, even if I don't agree with it, I cannot judge another person for comitting suicide, because I don't know what was going on inside their head.
But the majority of the class sat there and said, "No, it's never right. Never."
And when me and my friend brought up people whose lives are lived in constant pain from an injury, or the elderly, or people who have nothing else to live for, we were just shut down.
I don't think suicide is the only answer, but still. It depends entirely on the person. |

| February 13th, 2007 at 05:21am At my school, and around here in general, anything related to self harm or suicide is just called 'being emo'.
Its lame as.
Its like.. if some of the kids I hang out with knew about shit Ive done, they'd die of shock. |

I don't know you, I don't know what you've done, but I can promise they wouldn't care
just this week (because I've been letting myself go a little crazier) someone pointed out that they could see scars on my left arm
hasn't fazed anyone
they just pointed out they could see it
I'm sure some people know I've tried to kill myself (or they could at least infer it) and no one gives a shit
I'm not saying this to depress you, or to brag about myself
but one reason for a lot of suicides is "they'll care when I'm gone"
fuck no they won't
I swear it, they still won't care after you're gone
this is the main reason I think 5,000 Ways to Die by Nerf Herder is the best song about suicide ever
http://www.plyrics.com/lyrics/nerfherder/5000waystodie.html
myspace.com/nerfherder
the song should be on their myspace
I just wish the number of "they'll care when I'm dead" suicides would decrease
and that song sheds a lot of light on it |

| February 13th, 2007 at 09:06pm My friends make fun of 'emo' kids. I wonder what they'd say if they saw my notebook.
I don't think it's taken seriously enough. I guess it's the people that pretend that have turned it into a hgue joke. |

The cutting helps me get through my hard times and I know not to cut too deep, so, it's not really harmful. I don't understand why everyone makes such a big deal of it, when people cut themselves. 
well its really not a healthy thing to do....and you have such a calm attitude towards it too.... like its a cool thing to do or something...
yes i agree...its not like your taking vitamins or something...you are actually cutting your skin on purpose...
suicide is a personal thing, and though im not for it, its any one's choice.
and you say you cut yourself like its normal. .. .im not making a big deal, but you obviously have a problem if you think cutting yourself is "no big deal". |

Yeah, there was this one girl who use to go to school with me
and she use to cut all the time and she never hid it.
So that means everyone, including the teachers saw the scars.
It was also pretty obvious that they were self - done and still, nothing.
It disgusts me really that nobody tried to help her.
Counsellors only help kids that come to them and even then they manage to fuck that up aswell. The counsellors at my schools have broken up two families that I know of. >.<
I would never go to them for help, but thats just my opinion. |

I would never go to them for help, but thats just my opinion. I rest my case. We are the second coming of the "Me Generation"
and this seems like the perfect time to expand on that.
The first coming was 70s-80s after the Kennedy assassanations (hence the band name Dead Kennedys, all based on the "Me Generation" 
now, most decades start and end with tradgedy/amazing improvement
1960s ended/70s began - Altimont (the bad version of Woodstock)
70s ended/80s began - death of John Lennon
80s ended/90s began - Smells Like Teen Spirit
and then it became really shallow
but many people who have made that decade connection say that nothing started the 00s....I think 9/11 did
now we're all so much more self involved and we don't have any sort of empathy and that's making a major splash in the whole suicide/self harm thing
(sorry if I'm getting really off track) but I actually have very detailed music charts on music trends so I'm assuming the next artistic/empathetic movement in American culture (which usually spreads to European and North American culture) should be in the 10s
but until then, we need to tell people to give a fuck about someone other than themselves |
