Tom IrelandSelf harm is usually deemed as something horrific and is frowned upon, however the sad reality is that usually it's the only way someone can find a release ( due to not having someone to talk to /support them. Psychological abuse etc. ). Personally I do think it's wrong but I do try to help those who want someone to talk to. It's better than seeing someone hurt themselves.

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Tom yeah. The thing that annoys the though is that so many people do it for attention and it's not because they have no one to talk to because they could get help with the click of a finger if they wanted it. I do agree with you however not everyone does it for real reasons. There are a lot of attention seekers out there and people trying to be "emo".

😄Sudsy😄some people so not do it for attention but for personal reasons and I find many people judge them despite the fact they do not know what he or she is going through. Personally I think it is bad but under some peoples circumstances they do it for a reason not just to attention seek

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@😄Sudsy😄 yeah I agree but when people show it off, tell everyone, post pictures to tumblr. That's attention seeking

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem no they fucking don't! People self harm because they are upset are angry with something of someone! Help can't always help them

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Olivia_Jade🐍 I think you need to read my comments properly

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem I have actually! And u have said it wrong cuz it's not people wanting attention💁

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Olivia_Jade🐍 I said WHEN people show it off it's for attention..l

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem OR they are showing people how much they might hate life!

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Olivia_Jade🐍 yeah, attention seeking.

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem I didn't say that

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem #bitchybitch

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem ur a smiling pile of poo

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Olivia_Jade🐍 what are you on about you immature twat.

💜🐼👊PURPLE-PANDA-POWER👊🐼💜Well I do but not for attention I'm not emo or any thing but as you said attention seekers are annoying and they just want us to give them complements

Shadowsome are for stupid reasons like their boyfriend broke up with them and some nonsense like that... Some are for attention but most are probably going through a hard time.

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@Shadow exactly

Livvv🌿🌍👽💿@sweetcattiem sorry that was my friend! People do it because they are going thru a hard time

Your_freakMy best friend started to cut her arm which which then made everyone stare at her which she hated. She knows she should stop but she can't, have u any advice I could give her?

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Loolaluvxx tell your student support staff at school (head of year or whoever you have) they will be able to get her counselling to help her recover. That's what I did for my friend. I think with self harm you really need to get it into your head that you want to stop. I think it's a state of mind. She needs to question herself and see how ridiculous it is. It makes things worse not better. She needs to understand that self harm isn't the only way out. It isn't a way out. There is no need for it. It's pointless.

🍧🎂🍪🍩🍫🍎🍉🍭🍅@sweetcattiem ok first of all it isn't exactly pointless. Ok girls go through bullying,family times, all kinda of stuff like that. They do that because it relieves pain. I'm no trying to sound mean or anything but there are other ways to put it.

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@~bounce it~ it doesn't though, it creates more pain and problems.

Its great you should try it, stabbing yourself with a needle is by far the best method...

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑Anyone who chose "emo freaks" is very ignorant on the matter

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp this is true. However I do see where they are coming from.

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑@sweetcattiem I suppose if one doesn't know or understand the motives behind self harming, then I would understand why they would choose that

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp yes also. It is pretty sad and stupid to self harm. These people should be grateful they are alive and healthy. (That is the people who do it purely for attention)

Megan🐎but theres people out there who have suffered/ing from severe emotional pain and think that self harm is only way to help them. So we can't judge, we don't know their story

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@Megan❤Conor but self harm is never an option, solution or a form of help. The people who actually do it for proper reasons (not for attention) are not thinking logically which is why they need help to understand that self harm is bad

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑@sweetcattiem But the people who do it for attention are looking for people to care about them and help them with their emotional problems... It's not just "Everyone look at me!"

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp you can't generalise it! Not everyone is the same. There are people who do it for reasons none other than to show it off. I have Jo sympathy.

Your_freakMy closest friends did it and I didn't know why they did to start with but when I sat down with them and talked, I realised what pain or hurt they were going through and then felt how they were so it might appear as attention seeing but they're dying inside and no one knows so they show it on the outside (unfortunately) so dont judge, realise what they could be feeling =....(.....

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑I have self harmed myself in the past. It's a state of mind. As I said before, not EVERYONE does it for attention but a lot do. I have no sympathy for the people who show it off to get attention.

Your_freak@#HCQ sweetcattiem👑 exactly! Ur right, it's rear for someone to do it for attention but when they don't, it's what they feel is right at the time(sort of!)

💜🐼👊PURPLE-PANDA-POWER👊🐼💜I agree

#н¢¢иααиιI feel like if u self harm and are going thru something... Talk it out!! U can permanently damage urself by cutting...😐

LozxMI agree 💟💟

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑just thought that I would mention the fact that I have changed my opinion and concluded that everyone who self harms is doing it for attention

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑yeah I did do it for attention, and yeah that's what I mean, attention as in literally attention. Not just to show it off. However some people do do it to show it off. But ultimately it's always attention. Or else there would be no point. Unless you're a psycho of corse

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑Some people think they deserve it because they hate themselves, for some the physical pain distracts them from the emotional pain, for some it's a form of release...like they have so much pent up and it's a way of letting some go, which is very hard to relate to if you haven't done it but ya know. Then of course there are the masochists who like the pain. And finally, the people who do it for attention because they want to be heard, want people to see how much they're hurting, want /help/. None of these people are psycho/crazy/stupid/whateverthefuck

#HCQ sweetcattiem👑@👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑 yeah but there is a 4th category which is psychos

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑@#HCQ sweetcattiem👑 haha well alright then

99My view of this is that mental harm is very common. The worst type is brain fog it messes u up very badly

Rain13i don't see it as wrong i see it as someone needing help wether they do it for attention or actually suffering because to resort to self harm is awful and painful
