Teen Cutting! Some of the long terms effects for cutting yourself are:

-scarring

-memories

-pain

these may not seem very bad. But if it were to happen to you, you’ll think different. Depending on how bad your cuts are, you might get scarring, which will stay there. You can use gels, and creams, and even makeup to cover it up, but its still there. You cant completely get rid of the scarring. You can easily cover it up or make it fade, but its still there.

 

And you’ll also have the memories of every cut you made. And all the suffering you put yourself through. Youll have bad memories of your cutting days, if you do cut yourself.

 

And theres also the emotional pain. It will follow you, when you cut yourself it may relieve some of you pain, but it doesnt make it disapear. It will still be there. The pain following you. And also you’ll have to look back on all the pain you caused your family and friends by injuring yourself.

 

before you start cutting–or go to far with it if you already started–think about this, and how bad it could get. There are many more long term affects that will follow you. So if you are cutting and dont know how to stop, check out these tips!

 

-talk to your school councelor

they’re supposed to be there to help you

-talk to your parents

they’ll still love you no matter what, and they’ll help you get through it

-tell a close friend

your friends will always be there for you, they’ll help you through the pain your feeling

if you talk to your school councelor or your parents, you can get counceling and support so that you can find out why you cut and live a happy life. It will be difficult, but for some people the pain isnt as deep so they can easily stop. But for many people the emotional pain is too deep and painful that they need therapy to get back on the right track.

 

but did you know that some of the causes of self harm are-

-depression

-anarexia

-breakups

-stress

all these things exist in every day life, there are always gonna be bad breakups, theres usually gonna be someone whos suffering from anarexia, theres always someone around who is suffering with depression. And almost everyone suffers from stress. All these are big causes of people cutting. People are trying to rid the pain of these things, but they dont realize how much worse they’re making it for themselves, their friends, and their family. But people who cut also dont realize how much they change the enviornment around them. It changes the vibe you give to people when your a cutter. And it can also affect they way you dress when you are trying to cover up your scares and new cuts.

*this story came from a real live cutter who now has the support of her boyfriend and friends, and she knows that people will be there for her, and she is trying the best she can to stop. To this day she has cut back on her cutting. She still does cut sometimes but now she realizes how much her cutting is effecting the people around her. Good Luck*
