I'm telling you: RUN!

Running is incredibly therapeutic.

That isn't praying, son.

On topic:

Some known methods to prevent cutting are:
1. Consult somebody you trust, either a friend, a parent, councilor, etc. Whenever you feel the urge to cut yourself, call this person or contact them in whatever way possible. Many resort to school councilors or to those who know how to comfort you.

You have no idea how relieved you will feel after talking to someone, release your pain vocally, not physically on yourself.


2. Keep cutting utensils away from yourself. In some cases, those who have the urge to cut lose that urge when looking for a utensil of some sought. Of course, finding a utensil wouldn't be impossible, but it delays yourself.

3. Identify the trigger. The trigger is what thrives you to cut yourself, try maintaining self-control and ask yourself "What were the events or thoughts which have lead me here, wishing to cut myself". Try identifying the trigger and talk to the person you resort to in the first suggestion listed. If you can properly identify the trigger, you'll be getting somewhere.

4. Relax. Sounds simple, I know, but if it was, you wouldn't be cutting yourself to begin with. Close your eyes, lay down, listen to music, fold your arms, and breath. Tell yourself you are MUCH stronger than this and lay there motionless and relax, possibly listening to soothing music such as a hymn.

5. Find another alternative method to ventilate your pain and frustration. Cutting yourself is due to ventilation of pain or frustration, as Odin stated, running could be an alternative method, as well as singing, dancing, boxing, a sport, video games, poetry, ANYTHING, so long as you are out of harms way and it is legal.

6. Imagine. Imagine if your best friend was cutting herself, or himself, to the point of dangering his or her life. What would you do? What advice would you give them? What would you do help them prevent doing it furthermore and ruining their tissue? Follow your advice. =]

These are a few suggestions to get yourself started, above all, have confidence. Believe in yourself.

Cutting is not the solution luv,
from experiance I know that everything hurts, and how it will feel like cutting away everything makes it all feel better.

But believe me,
there are other things in life to use to our advantage other than our physical health.

~hugs her tight~

I'm sorry that your mother is being taken so much,
but there are doctors to take care of her,
~smiles~
just work on taking care of yourself.

If they take your mother to the hospitle you need to just turn to something else,
music, art, poetry.

take out every ounce of your feelings on those things.

express your feelings and share them with other people who feel the same, instead of harming yourself in solitude.

~hugs~

good luck luv.

Don't delude yourself into thinking cutting yourself is a good way to "take care of pain"

You wanna stop feeling pain? Suck it up

You wanna stop feeling pain? Don't cause more pain, go do something stress relieving

You wanna stop feeling pain? Stop coming to an online forum and whining about your life, get used to the fact that things happen and not all of them will benefit you in a good way. If cutting yourself is just the way of brining the attention away from the eprson in the hospital and onto yourself

Your a sick minded soul
