I started cutting back in highschool
when I accidentally cut myself while trying to peel an apple. The peeler was one of those potato peelers with little spikey things so it left about 4 cuts in a net little row on my wrist. The next day I went to school and one of the nerdy kids I used to hang out with said idk you were emo or something like that. It made me feel cool for some reason. Probably because I lacked personality. Also I remember there was this kid in middle school who I thought was cool and he had cuts so I thought it would make people interested in me. I was new to this school and I didn't have much friends and I never was a people person. The weird thing is I always hid them even though I wanted people to notice . Now even though is started off like that I eventually did use it as a way to release my emotions I guess. Usually when i was mad i would cut myself and it kind of took me a feeling similar to the feeling of getting your ass beat by your mom for doing something. Where you would feel the pain on you butt or back wherever you got hit and you'd sit in your room in a but of pain but with a certain calmness. Eventually I stopped because I started hating the attention I got from the cuts. And theres my two cents on the topic any questions ?

i shoot people down because you don't listen to what you're saying.

what concerns me more is how obligated you feel to shoot ME down for wanting to ask people questions. you talk like people who ask questions on Yas Forums owe you a full explanation of their previous research when it's fucking Yas Forums. it's like you're itching to shoot others down.

I would punch walls or myself in the head sometimes too

Ive done it throughout my life, but not regularly. I have trouble dealing with extreme emotion and get manic during those times. Its a coping mechanism basically and its like a release from those extreme levels of emotion - typically anger, guilt, or depression. It doesnt even hurt at the time, but like I couldnt do it right now or just whenever because it would. It really makes no sense but thats how ive dealt with those extremes. Probably doesnt help that i feel very little emotion the majority of the time. I dont like talking about it really because people assume its for attention, but im anonymous here so that doesnt matter. Hope this helps.

The band? They're okay why?

Dont need a full explanation. By the inital questions its clear you didnt do any or know anything.

;)

that's a lot of detail and v insightful. i wouldn't say i have any more questions regarding what you've told me but it's made me realize what i want to do with the writing - this is information that would be v useful if i want to make my story central to self harm, but self harm is only one aspect to this character. nonetheless this is all very helpful. thank you user.
