2011/12/04 -- Chat, Quick Navigation, Famous Self-Injurers, Self-Injury Songs, Etc.

Since this didn't post on the front page (though it did in the feed) the chat is here -- http://self-injury.net/chat-room -- for registered chat members (message me if you're a registered member and want to be added). The old chat is available here -- http://self-injury.net/old-chat -- for those who prefer that. The old chat should be a chat bar on the bottom so the status update box on the side isn't it, if you've been confused why nobody is replying. :)

I've slowly been updating the Songs with small clips/samples of the song plus links to Amazon MP3 or iTunes plus a Youtube link to a video with the full song (if avaiable).

I've decided that instead of waiting until I feel inspired to write mini-bios for Famous Self-Injurers I'm going to write a small brief and have some relevant links and quotes and then update with something more substantial. So I'll write another update here when I do that.

The Quick Navigation and various things you can follow/subscribe to has been cleaned up and you should now get a smaller (rather than huge) popup when you click Quick Navigation plus small popups when you click Subscribe. Plus, the issue with the popup sometimes being empty has been fixed. Read more »

    anonymous user (not verified) says Be strong and don't give up! on I know I told most I don;t know whats causing it...

    You missed 2 others that see through it,Me and Kiba. Me and Kiba have been to that dark place and I know you don't know my story and I don't know all of Kiba's story but when the end result of suicide pops up in your head it isn't good. Kiba warned me that he feared you'd reach this point eventually and wanted to make sure I was here for you when it started to go down. I know you'd been hiding that from me when I've asked how you've been doing but I didn't want to push you. Kiba is worried about you, I'm worried about you. Just because I'm filling in for him while he is away (hopefully safe?) doesn't mean I don't care about you. Your under a lot of stress, depressed, and still grieving in your own way. It's normal to feel like things are your fault but they aren't. And it's normal at times to be upset and angry at those that have died on you. To blame yourself for there deaths or to even compare there life and actions to yours isn't uncommon but to think suicide is the answer because they committed it isn't the answer. Please be strong and get professional help soon. I don't want to tell Kiba I failed him, that would crush him. If I could give you a hug and tell you everything will be okay I would in a heart beat. You deserve so much better. I'm always here for you if you want or need to talk! I care about you!

     

    PS. I'll try to contact Kiba and tell him what's going on.

    Trichster says Age 8 on At what age did you begin self-injuring?

    I started pulling my eyelashes and eyebrows out when I was eight and began pulling my hair out when I was thirteen. I tried cutting when I was fifteen.

    kittykat4 says I started when I was 19. on At what age did you begin self-injuring?

    Hi. I am 22 years old and I consider myself an off and on cutter. I started cutting again this month and I do it with more anger now than ever before. Everything in my life is better now but I guess my brain hasn't realized that yet.

    Maybe it's just because I have so much turmoil inside of me from being bullied about my fatness in school in the past. Maybe it's something else.

    Trichster says Thank You on Frequently Asked Questions

    Thank you for posting this. I felt a wave of relief when I saw Trichotillomania on the list because so many other people don't consider it a form of self-harm...but it's my biggest struggle.
