Any other cutters?

---

When I was little i used to punch pillows.And we've already talked about that steve

pillows? Goddammit why didnt I think of that :blush:

There is still a lot more talking that needs to be done tho.

A good heavy bag, not some piece of shit filled with sand, but a good heavy bag is about 100 bucks, plus a mounting system. If you have your own house and not an apartment or condo thats about another 30 bucks for a heavy mount with a swivel hook. if not hten a freestanding can go as high as 500 and the people that live inteh same condo building as me can attest to why you dont want to use it in a condo with out a freestanding mount. Iv shaken thier walls and disturbed many hours of off peak sleeping time before they bitched to me and made me aware that it was a problem.
A speed bag, can be more money for a good one then a heavy bag and it shakes the houses next door even more thena heavy bag when you get that lil bastard singing.

Id recomend a gym close by if you got that choice. Some where I live atleast are open 24 hours and noone there bitches when Im pounding the bag.

or get a red pen, and instead of cutting, use the red pen to make marks on yourself, it suprisingley does actually work, maybe not the same release you get from cutting but still effective.

I got something that actually did help out a bit = get a rubber band, put it on your wrist, pull it back and just let it go and pop your wrist and do it hard where it stings really bad.....it gives off about the same feeling as cutting and it actually just gives off pain but no damamge is done by it......it did help me a bit......i made the idea up on my own....and it actually did help me some.....its a good alternative....it hard for a cutter to stop it just cuz someone wants them to, so im not gonna say stop cutting, but i will try to help with get a alternative to it.....im a cutter too....and even after i did the rubber band thing.....i eventually cut again....but the rubber band thing helped me stop as much as i could tho...

My best advice would be quit while your ahead. Find something else to do, even punch a wall, listen to really loud music, but cut scars remain for a long time.. trust me. And people pick up on it, and the lies go on until you cant lie anymore. Worst thing is if someone picks up on it, you make the best lie you can and they start joking about going to your parents "thought your kid was suicidal for a moment!"

hey its not realy yer fault u started cutting i no im a cutter and i dont no how i started all i no is i do it 2 times a day.

im only 10 and i started cutting last year idk y tho only one person that knowes me personally knowes im a cutter the rest of the ppl think its frm my cat.go figure.but cutting is really helping me.now im not so mad at every one even tho i still cut but o well at least im still happy

You started cutting when you were 9? Wow.

all i can say is i am a cutter ive been in this position always on and off and yeah i know how it feels i am trying really hard to quit but i have a few things i need to sort before i think im free.... i agree having one person is great expecially if that person really understands what you are going through im 15 atm i started cutting just before i was 14 so about a year and a half on and off (of course) the cat is an odd one because people beleieve it for a while and then they dont i admit i must admit cutting to me seems the stupidist way to solve problems but it is something ( a habit that is bad to break) if that sounds okand not dumerrr well if u ever need someone to talk we are all here for you !! (thats to all)

your 'happy' cutting yourself?why did you start in the first place?

If everyone doesn't stop using the cat scratch lie ( i told that one too lol) it gonna become the universal code words for saying you cut yourself.....it alwasy either cats or bushes.....we need to think of something creative....idk....im not taking about this like a game.....its just every cutter there is including me has told the cat scratch lie and people are finnally just gonna catch on and know from the start.

I just said that I fell. Everyone knows that my cat wouldn't scratch me, he is too lazy.

yeh, i came up with so many lame lies...when it comes down to it though, you can never really think of any good excuses.sometimes, if they wernt deep cuts, i would just i didnt know where they came from, because some times when you do scratch yourself, you dont know how it happened

Yea, when you think about it, there's really not alot you can get cut on where your arms are at,...a fall, a cat, or a bush...is about the only thing...and the nail thing above was creative, i like that one........anyways I'm treating this way too much as this is a game.....I don't like cutting tho there are times i do it......

u'd be sutprised the amount of lie's i heard from my ex and i admit the dog scratched me is one i heard a few times i cant beleive i believed it for such a long time another one wasi dropped a ceramic tile in arti dropped a cup its smashed and i cut my self picking up the piecesive heard it all until one day i finally began to realise no matter how many different excuses you use you will get found out Eventually

I used to think I couldn't understand cutters at all. But then the other day I got really angry and punched a concrete wall. I guess it's the same sort of thing. But without the addictive element I guess.

Yea that is probably the clostest thing to understanding cutting.......prolly only difference is that for cutting, alot of cutters like the pain, and usually people who punch walls hate the pain they get afterwards.......but idk

not really, a lot of people do stuff like that, they hit a wall, or they hit themselves etc etcit all falls into the self harm category
