I'm not medicated. How can I get the heart wrenching sadness to go away without making myself bleed? It lasts days sometimes..  If you're not medicated, are you in a position to attempt therapy? If not, there's workbooks about self-injury you can attempt. Also, a supportive circle of people is important. That can help how you deal with the sadness though I myself am still not sure how to make it go away. |

cuts on my 14dgtr wrist done it 2X. took 2 counselor w/in 48hrs. find texts w/friend abt each cutting. Can dgtr be put in hosp b/c of this? If the doctors feel she is a danger to herself or others, yes. Note that cutting doesn't automatically mean being seen as a danger to self. |

Yes, it does. Self-injury isn't about how much (if any) blood is drawn. It's about deliberately hurting yourself. |

Gabrielle You can stop if you truly
3 years () (Permalink)You can stop if you truly want to stop or no longer need it in your life anymore. It's easier to stop with help and/or treatment. Stopping is doable. There's no recovery from some mental illnesses but there definitely can be recovery from self-injury. There's an active message board here, if you want to sign up click 'Forum'. Or there's links to other message boards under the 'Links' section if you prefer someplace else.
If you want to stop and your home life will allow for it (meaning no abusive family/significant others) I'd say seeking help from family/friends is worth a shot. Yes, there very well may be repercussions but without outside help stopping is very difficult if you feel you need self-injury.

If your parents do not know and you do not wish to tell them or if they're being squabbly about the divorce instead of paying attention to how it is affecting you then it might do some good to have a supportive circle of friends or trusted adults who you can turn to when you feel like self-injuring.
For the short term there are always lists of distractions ( http://self-injury.net/information-recovery/recovery/distractions ) though how well they hold up under pressure is entirely up to you and your commitment (or lack of) to not self-injuring.

cutting/masochism
3 years () (Permalink)I'm curious about what you said in one of your posts about people just thinking you're masochistic. because i think i'm fairly masochistic and definitely submissive sexually, but my cutting definitely doesn't give me any sexual pleasure--it's totally different. but it worries me that maybe there is a connection. i'm not comfortable with either one. And there's this movie, the secretary, where the girl cuts herself and then she gets in a s&m relationship and stops. i don't know.

3 years () (Permalink)I don't recall when I said that but I think that a number of people feel there is a connection between the two (especially after Secretary) when in reality self-injury can't define what turns one on. I've personally never felt sexual pleasure from self-injury and have heard many others say the same thing, even if they are into things that appear superficially similar like bloodplay, etc.

3 years () (Permalink)do not cut yourself. my friend does because her life is messed up and there is nothing i can do to help her. its the worst feeling ever when you don't know what she is diong when ur not with her. every day i think about it and it is making me depresed as well. spare your friends and family and please do not.
A therapist shouldn't be sending you to the hospital for every SI incident unless you're causing extreme damage. I had a therapist use the hospital as a threat because they didn't know what else to do with me. I'd ideally interview therapists until you find one that deals with your SI in a sane manner.
