Some anger and sadness is healthy. Do you have a problem with intensity, duration, or frequency?

I have a friend who stopped at the top of the new year. It’s one of those things that you can’t do anymore. It is such an unhealthy thing. I know that it seems like it takes away the pain. I used to turn to alcohol. I’m 17. That’s just as bad. it might seem like it helps, but all it does is hurt your physical and mental, and never stops the pain of the emotional.

Frequency could be a sign of distorted self talk. Cognitive Behavior Therapy can be effective in this scenario. You might like this free website: www.moodgym.anu.edu.au . It teaches Cognitive Behavior Therapy techniques.

When you cut yourself its something you dont want people to know about, something that you dont want people to see, and something that you definatley dont want to tell your parents or a doctor am i correct?
Well thats how i felt anyway..
Try running ice along your skin instead of a blade? it hurts the same but doesnt give you any dangerous pain?
These tips are for teenagers but work for all ages http://www.kidshealth.org/teen/your_m…
