This is not a Poem

For years I tried to understand why people would cut themselves, I understand, completely and fully. But at the end of the day, the problem is with you. You can say that these certain people have hurt you and this is the only way to deal. I assure you that no matter what you have been through, you have not seen the worst of it yet. I am not saying this to upset you. No really I am not. No matter what, whatever you cannot get over, it does not matter because in the only one that gets hurt is you.  You can cry and you can cut, but it is just you.  Your parents, the horrible uncle, that evil grandmother, or those bastards at school they do not matter. People say that we are who we are because of our expirances, they are unconditionally correct, but we can or die or thrive from these, and it is entirely up to us.
Elenor Roosevelt said, "No one can make you feel inferer without your consent." 
I am not trying to get you to stop.  But don't for millisecond think that what you are doing is justified, and don't ever ever blame it on anyone but yourself. It is you all the way.

I just think that you need to think about your reasoning.....

    I would have to agree with abariel. You don't truely understand cutting. Cutting is not just a "oh woo is me, i feel bad and i hurt so i'm going to harm myself" thing like you do kind of make it seem. its an addiction. I'm a cutter, trying to quit...but there is a hormonic high that surges through your body every time you bleed. most the time its unnoticable.. but to those who cut, we cut till we feel that high. there are many factors to how quick you feel that high.
    no its not a high that makes you see things like weed or coke... but its just as addicting. it sooths people, its why we do it when we are depressed and hurting.
    in ways its worse then drugs because its always avalable and not illigal, and its free.
    its not a cry for attention, its a desire for a releace and a relief. and to those who try to quit, quitting smoking would be easier.
    just putting in one cutter's POV.

    This is horribly inssensitive to others... You obviously do not understand cutters at all. This contest is not for things like that and I am removing this. I do hope you don't spew this kind of thing to others who do cut.I am a cutter I am 49 years old and it is more then just what you said it is an addiction like smoking or drugs. Now I am not going to justify why I cut or what business it is of yours but.... Pplease learn to be more sensitive to others.
