To cut or not to cut


 

Check these out, too...

  • Yeah, that's not funny: Twitter trolls trend #CuttingForBieber
  • Am I bi? I'm just not sure
  • Turning 16--but I don't want to grow up
  • I can't stop tearing my hair out--help!
  • 3 times it's OK to tell your bestie's secret
I have been through a lot of stress and considered cutting myself. Please help.
 
Dear To Cut of Not to Cut,


No, no, no, don’t cut yourself! That will not help anything. I’m sorry you’ve been stressing, but there are healthy ways to relieve stress. Spill all in your diary. Make art. Eliminate activities you aren’t totally into to free up your schedule. Go to bed earlier. Walk with a friend or parent. Take up running or a sport. Instead of hurting yourself, take care of yourself. And above all, find someone to talk to, like a school counselor or understanding aunt or older friend, or talk to your parents about seeing a therapist. You don’t have to feel this way.


SERIOUS STUFF? For serious issues, don’t wait. Visit our HELP! page now.
