You enjoy the pain - it makes you feel real, no?

I have thought about being a surgeon honestly.

Perhaps you’re curious about the human body and such - the surgeon theory might be accurate. Its not healthy though, something to figure out.

blood is fun and unique, we want to investigate it. there are disection labs and things you can go to where you can cut open and explore pigs, frogs, etc. its quite fun. there are some that are animal safe (they used them for other things as well). You should try those. cutting yourself is fun but not a good habit =). your fine, and not messed up…just curious.

woo hoo! haha. but as far as disection labs go… not my thing. dead animals make me sad… i prefer human blood.

Well chalk it up to curiosity. And than stop cutting yourself and move onto filling your curiosity with knowledge instead.

Cutting is something serious. And HUGE. You shouldn’t cut yourself for the fun of it, because it can seriously hurt you. When you cut endorphins is released into your body like a pain-killer. And it’s not good. You may think it’s “fun”. But really people could be thinking your hurt or your upset. Cutting can leave a mark on you forever. When and if you have children they will look back on you and think it’s alright to cut themselves and I really don’t think you want that. Your kids having the enjoyment of cutting. That’s not good. You could die from that. You should really stop, you parents, families, friends will be worried.
