Im 14 and I wanna cut my self idk but please read?

i feel what u going through i went through something like that too the only difference is that i didnt have brothers or sisters and i didnt have a dad either...and i used to get picked a lot at school too and beat up a lot...but that still shouldnt be a reason to make marks on ure skin and throw ure life away using drugs...the only place drugs will take you is to the street when ure on drugs it hurts worst because it just eases the pain for a while but and then u need more money to buy more and thats when u start getting addicted..u dont want to go down that path..and ure family may not be the perfect family but they are there for you they give u a place to live and food to eat.. and dont listen to ure sisters dont let them put you down...because nothing they say is true ure still young and u still have ure life ahead of you...i know it hurts bad for someone to call you names and push you around but u just gotta be strong...and if dont feel comfortable at home get more involved in school and join a sport like baseball basketball football...since ure a boy u can do a lot of things and that helps you get in shape and lets you take out all ure anger while u play...and if u need support theres always people at school that really care and will help you and keep ure problems confidential...but one thing that will really help u is to stay in school get good grades cause that will help u become somebody in life...and later u wont have to live there no more youll get a bigger house... and if u wanna spend more time at school go with ure teachers so they cudd help u out with homework and join a sport that way youll learn how to play something and keep ure body and mind healthy...plus it helps avoid from being at home while u do something good for yourself...and then whenever u at home and they piss you off...just get out the house go to the nearest park and unleash ure anger playing the sport of your choice...and trust me by the time u get back youll feel brand new like nothing happened and prolly go to sleep...i used to be just like you i had friends but they werent around when i needed them so i just got ran cross country and track and field for the school cause i never liked being at home. and it helped me out cause i graduated high school and went on to college...so think about it kiddo!! u can do so many things with ure life right now...but dont throw it away cutting ure self and doing drugs dont give ure sisters the satisfaction of seeing u on the street...show them u stronger than them and smarter than them...and then they wont have nothing to say to you!!!! allright kiddo good luck!!!

Don't do it!!! I am being honest with you. I did it when I was 13 until I was almost 16 and it was the stupidest thing I ever could have done. I have scars forever now and horrible memories. It does not help or solve anything and it is a HORRIBLE way to relieve emotional pain. Find something else! Talk to a counselour or a friend. Sign up for a group at school or talk to a teacher. Cutting is very unsafe and is very unhealthy, especially emotionally.

AND pleaseeee, don't turn to drugs. You seem like a very well rounded, strong person and you do not want to ruin your life. Good luck kiddo, I really hope that you make the right decisions and that you have someone to help you through the rough times.

I'm so sorry. Just please don't cut your self I am a 13 year old girl and I have promised myself that I would not cut myself, life is full of trials that we can all overcome over time, you might want to see that your dad is trying to reach out, Please don't use drugs at our ages it can damage us for life, you might want to find something that you love to do like a sport then you could retreat to that one thing. Oh and I love the song don't forget.

Hope I helped

P.S. If your sisters truly beat you up punch them in the face and go out side for like 3 hours. And the great outdoors is a good place to go and sit and think about the good in your life.

Shayne,

Wow young fellow. What a complicated life you have. Let me see if I got all that? Two sisters that tease you mercilessly, a dad who is selfish and only thinks of himself. A detached mom. Have you considered a direct approach? First off cutting yourself solves nothing. It is a cry for help but only if someone is paying attention or cares. It hurts too. If it gets infected oh man. Shots and med's and cleanings and draining. Really a mess.

So what can be done to help things become better for you? First thing you have to realize is that running away solves nothing. The next time in your life that things get bad you will have trained yourself to run from it. Living that way will never help you get the life you want. A life away from them. A place of your own.

One thing about those who bully others as you claim your sisters do. If you treat them kindly, kind words and deeds, it will be difficult for them to keep dogging you. When they say some snide and mean remark why not try this. " You know what's funny sis? Even though you hurt me with your words and treat me mean, I can't help myself. I still love you. Thanks for being my sister."

Now I want you to think of any good quality of your sisters. Is she smart? Is she loyal to her friends? Is she attractive? You see if you say you still love her in spite of who she is, you have to have some positive attribute of hers to refer to. People love it when we say we notice the good in them.

Why not do them a favor sometime? You kill them with kindness and their attitudes will most likely turn around. No guarantees but it's worth a shot. If they ask why you are being so nice or weird they will call it just tell them you figured out that you love them is all. What normal person can be mean to someone so nice as that?

Now I know many will say they will just get worse. Really? How do you know? Try it. You got nothing to lose by being a more positive human. Now as far as your dad goes, I can't imagine how his actions have cut you as deeply as they have. I'm sure that pain runs very deep. But there is only one thing in life we cannot change and that is who our parents are. Stinks I know. My dad used to call me very unsavory names, cuss me all the time and whup me silly with a belt until I got old enough and he punched me once. That's how I know running away fixes nothing.

Anyway, I want you to consider something for a minute. Your dad. Do you care to be like him? Considering the hurt he caused I guess not, and you should realize that is normal to feel that way. Almost any decent human being would. So you are normal. However he is back in your life and if he is willing to make the effort why not give him a chance. I'm not saying forget the pain he caused but realize that people sometimes actually grow up and become better people.

He may not be the best example of what you think a man should be. He sure isn't what I would consider as a shining example, but he must have some redeeming qualities. at least one, huh?

He has been around a little longer than you and he might have picked up a thing or two about how to handle stress and negative situations.

Drugs and drink while they may provide escape from problems it is only temporary. Drugs I can tell you put you in a limbo where you do not grow as a human being into an adult. I started when I was 13 and quit 21 years later. It was like I had no idea how to handle life. I didn't really. It was like waking up from 21 years of sleep and still being 13.

You have to talk to someone, if not your parents then make it a counselor and find the coping skills you need. Kindness to others is a coping skill. It's why I mentioned it.

Good luck to you and I hope I at least gave you something to think about.

Drugs and cutting is not what you need. You need to let out all of your anger and sadness with words. Words help more then any drug can. Cutting helps for a little I have heard. But that can only go so far. If you want to be happy use your words. Talk to a friend, a teacher, a guidance consoler. Talk to me. I'm sorry to hear this is happening but please promis me you won't harm yourself.

JESUS SAVES........ ILY...... <3
