as someone that selfs harms and has an eating disorder I know that it's not beautiful anyone that self harms knows it's not beautiful but there's something about it that makes us feel beautiful when everyone else tells us we're not

I've had a small eating disorders and it's not nice you feel powerful or in control but you're not and if you haven't you should go get help and talk to someone about it I'm much happier now :)

well I don't feel powerful and I'm definitely not in control and I've gotten caught for cutting my wrists and my parents tried to help and they think they did but now I just cut my thighs so they don't know thanks for the advice tho

wanna chat on my page?

you should try telling someone cutting doesn't get you anywhere it doesn't fix anything it just makes you sadder and I was a lot happier when I stopped :)

ok

I've tried to stop but I always run back to it for relief

isn't there something else that you can do to feel better?

not that I know of

you could try drawing, or writing, even reading

I try drawing and writing I've even tried drawing on myself with a red pen doesn't help

I know eating disorders are not pretty... especially with bulimia. and self harm isn't always for attention. I self harmed as a way to take anger out because noting else worked

then these don't apply to you these are for people who do this for attention

there are many other ways to get anger out that don't involve hurting yourself and you should try some cause hurting yourself doesn't get you anywhere

try a new hobby or sport or punch a pillow if you have to

I will let a doctor tell me that instead of someone online

I had a friend once. I self-harmed because of bullying and she was discriminated for being pan. she thought the self-harming worked and she tried it. She got caught and I was blamed for forcing her to cut. Her parents say I should never see her again (which the problem is that she is the only person I can talk to about self harm and tell everything, we've also been friends since 3rd grade) so I can't cut. now, I burn paper. burning paper at night when one's around and you may potentially burn the house down, helps. for me at least, seeing something wither up and burn to ashes is what I do at 3 AM, all alone.

I cannot tell you what you're doing is wrong if it helps you... I'm glad you aren't self harming. Please be careful when you burn paper because I wouldn't want you to get hurt.

if you have problems, you should go seek help, even if it's just talking to a close friend or family member

I know it may be hard to express your feelings, but honestly you'll feel much better after it

it is good to channel your emotions in a non destructive way, burning paper is good but dangerous, stay safe!

You're actually a good person and not the bxtch I thought you'd be. so ya I really can't talk to my family bc they start crying when I talk about my feelings. They are a bunch of homophobics and I'm bi so ya, super fun

if you want to talk we're here for you!

you don't have to date your parents

They're your parents, they should love you regardless of who you're interested if

*in

they go by The Bible which isn't homophobic. is actually states that 'love us love and you should love whoever it is no matter the sin' so ya f you parents. btw are you saying 'we' as in the the royal we?

we are saying we cause there are two people who go on this account

oh, I was curious. I didn't know. but ye Bible has a meaning finally

and I hate people like that we both don't believe in any gods and are atheists but my family does and I understand what you are talking about with people who are like the bible says blah blah blah

ya, I kinda understand what you said😂 I'm not exactly Christian bc I believe in Gay marriage and some of that Bible shît is probably not real since they lost records of history.

I myself just find things I don't agree with in it (including gay marriage) and many Christians just pick and choose from the bible what they want to believe

I think God created us then walked away. tbh that's what happened, if you've ever played the Sims, you pick the sims' actions and then they do it. Freewill doesn't exist and God has our lives planned out for us, he plans then walks away and watches us do the things he's planned.

it's not your place to judge people. people self harm and that is their choice and people are gay that's their choice and you can't change that so give it a rest

we aren't judging people we are just saying don't romanticize these issues (it says that right in this post) and other posts of ours are about not posting self harm (because it makes be taken less seriously and is against many social medias rules and can be triggering) and don't run pro Ana pro Mia ect. blogs that encourage others to have disorders that kill people

we are trying to help people to stop self harm because it's not good for them it may be their choice but that doesn't mean it's a good one

and also self harming is bad and being gay isn't bad and those things have nothing to do with each other

plus being gay isn't a choice so again the comparison doesn't make sense

yes being gay is not bad did I say it was?

no but your comparison made no sense you compared a bad choice to something that isn't bad and isn't a choice

You are just ruining hopes. I understand you're trying to help... but saying nobody will ever kiss your scars? You're saying people who self harm don't deserve to be loved. And that is NOT true. Just be supportive and stop. Ok? Just STOP.

no we are saying no one will love you because you cut and you shouldn't cut just to be loved if someone loves you it's because of who you are not because you have scars that's not romantic

this whole post is about romanticizing self harm not about not being loved

you shouldn't be made at these posts unless you romanticize self harm and other issues because these posts never hate on anyone it just tells people who ROMANTICIZE self harm and these things to stop

Ik. But for once, listen to me. I agree with your points, but the aggressive way you state them, doesn't come across the way you are trying.

I told you I get these posts from online I can't change them

and I like that it's blunt
