Teen Angst - Self-mutilation

"When someone cuts himself, the pain will trigger the release of endorphins. These hormones will numb the pain and give the person something like a "high". The effect of endorphins can be similar to certain drugs like heroin, which makes cutting so addictive."

Thats total nonsense. Cutting urself release endorphins, and supposedly "helps" depressed people feel better, why not go and exercise? Running also releases endorphins. a vile stupid excuse, its more like a trend to cut yourself, act as if you cover it up, and when you get found out, you feel extremely elated that someone cares. well thats because depression comes from isolation, alienation.


"I felt that life was horrible, and i hated school. I didn't fit in with my new class, and i was starting to do badly in a couple of subjects. Also there was this problem with a boy who upset me, and someone close to me had died a year before."

Sounds pretty sad.. but, thats still no excuse. almost everyone i knows hate school incredibly. everyone at the beginning dont fit in with his new class, thats normal. so whats the big deal about it. do badly in studies... instead of cutting urself, spend that time studying? It's such a better use of your time and mental state. A boy upset you. wow. -_- My condolences for you on that case of that individual. but since it was a year ago, shouldn't you have gotten over it? but i guess it relies on the indivdual. but still, self-mutilation is the coward's way to get out of things.


"When i cut, i try to cut as close as possible, like kueh lapis to save space."

LOL. just cut same spot then.


"I also buy penknife blades in bulk."

Sanitazation reasons? she predicts that she will be emo and depressed for a long time ^^. directly fits into my draft of it being a trend.


Girls are funny creatures. :/ but we guys aint that much a angel either >.<
