Just get a stress ball or punch your pillow

Although I've never cut myself, try and find alternative ways around it. Talking it out is the best thing you can do - and it's a skill if you can do it, since guys supposedly cannot talk about their true emoticions.

Sometimes getting some fresh air can also clear you head.

when your upset just cry like normal people do lol and eat loads of food n u can like accidently chop ya finger off whilst preperating a sandwiche then you won't feel guilty about slitting your finger off.

Ostinato made a good stickied thread in the teen life section on self harm, check it out.

Agreed, check the stickied thread for some good information, good luck quitting.

The only time I've ever been slit was in Year 10 when I was working in engineering and cut my arm on a sharp peice of bar, right across the wrist :eusa_sick, it was an accident though, but I swear to god I thought I was gonna die, didn't even notice till my friend screamed :S.

Anyways back to you XD! Basically just what the other have been saying, also try to talk about it, like why you think you need to slit yourself and such(perhaps to a disinterested member (counsellor or nurse), some people find it hard to talk to friends or family members about such things).

When i'm annoyed I take it out on my sister, and then the fight begins where I beat the crap out of her.

Maybe you should get some help from a psychologist.
