Yes, everyone has a reason and yes they need help. But I'm always skeptical. I will admit I am biased, but that is because of what I have heard. Basically (I don't feel like listing all my reasons) they should simply stop. It's unhealthy. If they want to die, just do it already. The only issue with that is then everyone would pout and feel bad for them because See More▼ they were a suicide victim. I sound crude, I know. But c'mon, man. There's no point in it at all. They have good lives to live if only they would man up and pull themselves out of the pit they dug. Others die and are harmed without wanting to, so why do self-harmers do this? I've never heard anything good at all about cutting (and there isn't anything good), but then I should be hearing nothing- they choose to do that so they should not complain, right? But no! If I hear stuff at all, it's either complaints about their habits or some sort of plea for attention. If I offended anyone with this, I apologize. But this is what I have seen as of now.
I think that they should n3ed help, they have to stop doing this to there body, if they feel unhappy they should search for help so they can help her or him, not be quiet and dont say anything, they also have to speak there minds, staying quiet is just worse, people will think she or he is weak so they will keep annoying that person, if its in house the poblem See More▼ they should talk with there parents or if your to scaed tell it to a other familiar so they can help you talm with your parents. people who self harm, stop and think about the people who care for you, that self harming isint the right choice cause you can always have a bright future, just have hope and be strong.
Whoever said suicidal idiots, cowards, and that they only do it for attention: I cut myself everyday. I take medication, I have a therapist, but life is much harder for me than most people. I'm always crying on the inside- just talking to my teacher for my missed homework kills me a little on the inside. Imagine being trapped by fear all the time everywhere you See More▼ go. Buying something from Target is a big deal for me. I'm not emo. Nobody really knows this.
that is the exact same for me, i have doctors,theripsts and all, but they do jack shit. being broken is horrible, and the last thing we want is attention
I am an ex-self harmer. I cut from 4th to 9th grade. It's a serious thing and the reason so many people do it is because it helps cope with emotional pain. I get bullied a lot and have almost no true friends. It's hard to deal with and it's hard to stop once you have started. Yes a lot of people do it for attention but not all do. Sometimes life f=gets hard See More▼ you need a way to relive your stress.:( I'm sorry if you think "emos" are dumb and if your a re offended but cutters.
@stormHeart I do understand where you are coming from but the example you have is a little pathetic. People don't self harm if they are embarrassed about milkshake going over their friends. I think more serious stuff like eating disorders, abuse, bullying and depression are reasons why and people self harm not because some milkshake. You obviously don't understand See More▼ self harm at all.
I don't call the people who do it stupid, but I think the thought of doing such a thing is quite dumb. I understand they have problems in life, we all do, but cutting (or anything else causing self-harm) isn't going to help anyone nor make that problem go away. I mean, just today, I started laughing while drinking a milkshake a spit it out all over my friends See More▼ XD It was crazy embarrassing... But I just laughed it off and it was all ok :P
That isn't what makes people depressed. Spitting a milkshake on a friend doesn't depress me or anybody. People do that because of abuse, bullying, anxiety, or just general overwhelming emotional distress.

I have advice for people on how to stop it.
