Self-Harm

I know I'm in no position to give advice about this, so I'm just gonna share my opinion about it.

Despite knowing that there are people harming their bodies because of pain, by creating more pain ..It still bothers me.

There are different types of people
To the people who hurt themselves because they're being picked on. You don't know me, but I'm begging you to stop. One day, you're gonna look back on your scars and remember the pain you went through. Isn't it better to stay strong, move forward and not bring the dark past with you? I know it's hard. It's not that you can't do it, you just choose not to. No matter what situation you're in, there will always be someone out there who have it alot worser than you. You're not alone. It's OK to ask for help.

You need to think about the people around you as well. Your friends & family. I know many people who say stuff like "Oh, nobody loves me". Even if everyone wouldn't accept you for who you are, would you change? Or would you stay strong and continue being what makes you the happiest? You lose friends, you make new ones. It's not the end of the world.

Next, the people who caused it. I don't understand why people think it's OK to say stuff like "Go Die". I mean, yeah. It's only the internet, but that doesn't mean words don't hurt. Whether you're joking or not, when you go as far as to wish death upon others ..That's just gone too far. I'm sorry if you don't agree with me. That's just my opinion.

There are also people who I can never understand even if I was in their shoes. People who cut themselves for attention, acting like they're proud of it. People who broadcast themselves infront of thousands of viewers, cutting their wrists whilst laughing. I probably need someone to explain to me what that's about because ..I dunno ..It's just ..yeah ..Attention-seeking Self-harmers.

Even people who lie about self-harm. I don't understand what's the point. Have you ever rejected someone and they say they're gonna cut themself? I'm sorry but that's the most selfish thing I've ever heard. My ex-bestfriend tried to kill herself a few years ago, what did I do? I cried and begged her not to jump. Her boyfriend arrived and thankfully, she came to her senses and realises that she'd be causing pain amongst everyone around her as well as herself. Eventhough we're not friends anymore, I'm glad she's doing OK with her life.

That's all I have to say.
