No it doesn't.

Self-harming generally makes the problem worse actually.

Self harming is generally done as an emotive expression, and a way to release anger/emotions/upset that you can just as easily talk about.

Rather than hurting yourself to express these emotions, I suggest you do it in a much more productive way, such as sitting done with the people in question and getting a hold of your life and sorting out these problems in them.

Self harming is never the right answer.

I think it would be helpful to you by reading a wee guide I created on self harming a while ago that may come i beneficial at some point. :)

Okay, lets have a lovely lecture about selfharm!
Lmao, or not! :)

Selfharm doesnt really help, it gets addictive and obsessive, seriously, if you're thinking of selfharming, dont, it can start for stess or whatever, but then soon, you'll be doing it for no reason at all, and take new forms of selfharm ie; overdosing, burning, pulling hair out, biting, ect.
It may help at first, but seriously, it doesnt, and dont you be saying 'oh how would you know' because i DO know.

I would just get a stress ball or punchbag and let of some steam by that. Or better yet, play full blast music and write down your feelings. Will help alot.
But dont start selfharm, it will make things so much more difficult.

Please dont use self-harm as a way to let ur stress out, Maybe talking to a close person like a older person family member, Teacher friends or even your gp about ur stress, normally self harm is a way of depression.

Lets talk about self-harming.


It came become addictive ( I Didnt become addictive to it but i know a lot of people that have and did it cause i started to)
It can actually end up in ur death
It can Scar your skin
your do it for any reason you can think of
it will upset ur family members and friends if they find out


and to fire self harming is actually a cry for help apart from some emos that do it for no reason but to be scene.

Plese dont say how do you know Cause i do

Selfharmers are the most annoyingiest [no such word :rolleyes:] people ever. Why risk your life ? if your depressed talk to someone or something i just hate selfharmers basically your ungrateful for your life [what i think] if your gonna selfharm go over the top and actually die then everything will remember you as a suicidal prat

[exploit]

Self harm isn't the answer.. if your feeling really down, talk to someone or if that doesn't help, get some ice cubes and hold them tight, I heard that helps.

The only way I can possibly think it would help is by distracting you with pain. However, it might not even work in that very small way, because you'll associate the pain with how you're feeling. Seriously, it's not worth it, I don't think anything good will come of it.

I saw a program about teenagers who self harm and how they're allowed to do so by their parents/carers because they've become so addicted to it that they get panic attacks and get really ill if their blades and such are witheld from them. The show was trying to say that self harm does work, which I think was completely wrong because to me it just showed how addictive it can be, and how it can take over your life.

By all means, go do it if you really feel like it, but don't complain when your entire body is scarred because you took it too far.

Maybe some people don't actually want to talk about their feelings?

[edible]

I agree with Matt.

Like me !

See, now, if you begin selfharm, this post is aimed at GoldenMerc, if you start selfharm, you will think, ah, nothing wrong with it, its perfectly fine!
WRONG. Completely and utterly wrong. It all starts with just one little cut, turning into obsessive thoughts, itching, hiding, regretting, scarred body, the list goes on.
If you are looking to ruin your body, then this is the thing to do, if you are looking for an outlet, dont go running to selfharm, thats the last thing selfharm does.
Talking can be extremeley difficult, whatever the problem, but at the end of the day, thats the only thing that will get you anywhere, whether its with a professional, friend, parent, even someone on here.

tbh if you're sad/depressed/stressed to the point of considering self harm why don't you see your doctor? He could give you some medication or some coping techniques.

Self Harming Is Wrong - FULL STOP.

Please Don't Do It, Try And Seek Help, Go To Your Doctor And Talk To Them About It, Or talk To Your Mum/Dad

There's been a lot of good advice in this thread, so mine probably won't make any difference.
But self harm is the definition of pointless. If you do that, you'll have all your mental problems, plus you'll have physical pain on top of that. You don't want to be in that predicament. If you must release anger, then break something, just do no harm to yourself in any way. This is important.
Problems can be solved with words. You must talk with the people in question, or think a lot to yourself. There's always a way out.

Self harming yourself is a bit stupid

[Boxiel]

I used to, got the scares to prove it, Wow, Why am i even telling you guys this? not even my mest friends in RL know i did it.. so hush hush ok :)?

[:Hazel]

Some peple find it as a relief but to be honest your better off de-stressing doing something else unless you want scars on your arms for the rest of your life.

What exactly is this 'stress'?
