    Okay, in my team, there some girls who have been cutting, or are, but I think they stopped. I have known about this for about a week, because I saw a girl doing it at lunch.

    Today my friends found out and thought it was their duty to tell on the girls, because they were grossed out. They thouhgt it was funny, and I was trying to tell them cutting, or slitting your wrist, or arm, or body, is dangerous and a serious problem. It's addictive like drugs or something.

    They told the special resources teacher, then the Language art teachers. The language arts teachers told the grade seven assistant principal. During Science class, three got called down to the guidance office, one by one. They were asking eachother who told, and I knew, but I couldn't say anything. And plus, I told the language arts teachers that I saw one girl cut, so I contributed.

    At lunch, the girl who I saw cut, was hysterical and was asking who keeps saying things about her. The of the accused cutters thought it was very funny. I went to their table and tried to calm the girl down. I told her the situation could be a thing that will help her, even though she claimed she stopped cutting.

    Do any of you have stories about this subject. Have you cut, or do you know someone who does. If you do, please try to stop this. It's dangerous and can hurt people.
     
    Yes Nick, I saw that Episode on Degrassi too, and you know what, It actually worked. I'm sorry about the Cutters at your school. Remember the Part when Ellie Cut herself when Her Dad left? Thats sorta how I feel, Boxed up and no one cares and crap, but all my friends were willing to help and stuff, and that made me greatful.
     
    That episode was sad, and today, I was trying to help like Paige. My friends made it into something funny. They are insensitive. But, I heard they were cutting because the saw Frankie do it on the real world.
     
    Well i have seen cuteing like that. I don't know if they stoped or not. I moved away before finding out.
    I also know that people in vampire way of liveing does cuteing but for diff reasons. If your woundering yes i was in vampire way of liveing for a while but i'm not any more.
    Any way it is very dangrouse and I heard about a cutter once killing them slefs becouse someone found out. It can be very trick trying to stop them but your right in that it must be stoped.
     
    Well yes you are right on that sence. People that cute to get relief from stress is like that.
    I live vampire way and the cute for blood needing not to kill ones self or thinking about killing.
    People that do that most likely under a lot of stress or feel left out of life.
     
    my best friend cuts herself and i feel terrible. i have tried to stop her but she wont listen cuz she is so stressed out right now. but i hope she will stop
     
    Seriously, if you're not a cutter you have no right to even TALK about this like you fully understand it.
    You don't.
     
    None of my real-life friends cut themselves (that I know of), but I do have an online friend or two who have felt the need to damage themselves in order to feel better. It's a really scary thought, and I'm just glad I've never felt the need to do so and I hope I never do. o.o;; And also, it's not really as if you can just tell someone to stop doing these things to themselves and they'll listen. I'm sure it must take therapy and whatnot in order to wean one off of doing that... and even then, I'm sure it's not definite because the way I think about it (although I've no idea if I'm even close to being correct or anything), if you can take the pain away by cutting yourself... why stop just because people are telling you it's bad for you? If it's the only way that seems to work to make you feel better, I doubt having people say "don't do that!" will help. o.o

    Ture i have not cute my slef becouse of stress or some thing like that. I have thought about and I know people that do.
    All i say be there for them. I don't think telling on them or tell them to just stop will help. Mosy like make things worse.
     
    There are some people in this world who, for some reason or another, enjoy inflicting pain on themselves out of anger or general dark feelings...some people do it to be different, but it's a really extreme way to express your differentness...too extreme o_O I know if I get too angry I'll start pulling my hair out, but I'd never cut myself up...one instance of cutting I saw was this disturbed girl who had a locker next to mine (lucky me -.- ) and she was constantly angry and just spewed hatred around at everyone...well she'd cut weird designs into herself, among them she had the word HATE carved into her hand...it was really disturbing to look at...she got into fights constantly and was really mean, and then just vanished...I think she got married to some guy or her cousin or something and moved to Germany o_O But anyway, my point is that those sort of people have serious anger issues...I really feel sorry for them.
     
    I do not understand how that releives pressure. If your that bad squeeze a plushie... they'll still love you XD

    But it is a serious issue. I think that doing that is a way to show you are not happy with yourself. I don't like to think about it so I am not going to type anymore

    I know I don't fully understand it, and I really do not want to. I think it's a very stupid thing to do yourself. Everyone has bad times, and cutting and suicide is just a way to escape reality. Like cheating life. And really, I want people who do cut to realize that they can hurt themselves. I'm trying to help.

    Aka Dizzy and someone else.

    It's okay Lighty, I seriously don't cut myself anymore. It only hurt me and no one else, and no one really cared that I was doing it either so I never stopped... Then I watched Degrassi :(
     
    I'm glad watching a show about cutting discouraged you instead of encouraged you to cut. That's why mature people only should watch shows like that, or they'll get the wrong message.
     
    Meh? Thiz iz quite a conincidence, I waz juzt talking about thiz yezterday >_<

    I have alot of friendz that cut themzelvez but many of them are bipolar. I belive being bipolar or deprezzed haz alot to do with much of the cutting. I myzelf have a zcar on my arm from a time when I waz really deprezzed. I regret doing it but it helpz me know what my friendz are going through zo it'z eazier for me to help them. It'z alzo a reminder of painfull memoriez and remindez me every day that it dozn't help anything.
    In fact one of my friendz had to leave zchool early today to go zee a phzicyatrizt becauze he cut himzelf, juzt lazt week another one of my friendz had to zee a counzler. I've never had to zee one though zince my mom forgot about what I did becauze of alcohol. ~_~''
     
    Self-mutilation is a way to supposedly relieve stress. Believe it or not, i was actually self-mutilating once, and it was not pretty. I did it because i thought nobody cared about me, and maybe if i injured myself i would get some attention. Well, then that is where i found my best friend and, actually, my first girlfriend too XD. I got to thinking and found out that the only reason for my self-mutilation faze was the fact that i had a lack of love. I think you should find out what those girl's life is like at home and other places, the best medicine you can give them is friendship ya know.
    Oh, i have stopped people from self-mutilation a number of times. So, yes, everyone please, try to stop this wretched act!
