I know how you felt, after doing this, because I had had many thoughs times when I had cut that it hurt and burned like hell, but some how, after putting certain things, on the cuts, it did feel better.
I really, truly know how you feel, because I have/had been there many of times so I really do know what ya mean.
i know its strange because it is the first time it happened to me. and it bleed like SHIT i though i might cut a vein or artarry which kinda made me scared.
the only thing with me i tend to just leave the cuts to bleed but this time i had to cut something on it because it burnt. and the ice seemed to stop the bleeding thanks for ya support everyone ya a great bunch of people although not all of you have helped but alot have, i have been able to rely on thesite and i am Very greatfull for all the help and support everyone gives me. i just hope with my advise i have managed to help a few of you in return thank you guy:)
I still think you should seek help, my sister used to cut & really regrets it now, shes covered in scars. A reminder for life.
Please think hard about it.

thank you all for all you concern and help and support i have been given over there space of time i have been here.
thanks for the help and numbers although i am seeing a councillor they may come in handy. i am also going to see my doctoer about anti-depressents and i will proberlly be put on a course of them,
one again i thank you all.
I have cut my wrist a few times, mostly because it hurts so much there. I know the feeling you're talking about. I guess it's some kinda deterrant that the areas where there are blood veins close to the surface are those that hurt most...
Keep seeing the counsellor, even if it feels painful, I reckon it's the best way to solve it. If you ever need to chat PM me.

Thank you. thats a kind comment. the councillor really helpfull and she say at the moment i should stop cutting as it MIGHT make me fall apart. the lastest cuts are the deepest and the most i ever done at once. my councillor said that i should go see my doc to see if there infected and to speak about anti depressents so when i have chance im making an apointment and going to see him.
thanks for all the help.
i think your right, i been selfharming for a while i started of with just scratching and stuff and i stoped. after the attack i started to cut and eversince then life for me has gone down hill for me.
i think your right in some sence. i know why i do it. but im not ready to stop yet. i think i would fall apart if i couldnt do it. i will give it time and i think i will stop.

but balieve me it is very real.
