I've tried all this kind of stuff, but it just doesn't help!

I hide the knife, but the thing is when im angry enough I really can't help myself; everyone I know hates me and my life is an ongoing spiral misery...even if the knife is gone, ill end up making it worse by scratching myself...

At least with a knife the scars are clean, but when you are really angry and stratch yourself, you get these mangled scars that never disappear and they look horrible....ive been to a therapist about this 'cuz my parents found out, but they think i've stopped...

I just hate everyone around me with every fibre of my being.

EDIT:

What makes me angry is...everything. I hate my family, I hate the things they do. I hate my stepfather for calling me emo, my mother for not understanding me, my sister for being a bitch, my brother for being insensitive.

I hate the people who shun and ostracize me because I don't go around living their little reality lauching away happily at thier pumicile little existence.

In fact, the only person I really like is my baby brother, Owen, but he doesn't understand. And when he does, he too will hate me.

My parents think I want attention despite the fact that for my entire life I have sought to be left alone...

I used to cut myself like 20 times every day (not very deep, though). I cut less now, maybe once a week but it's deeper because they all hate me so much!

it is so hard to stop like i just cut about 10 timesand i am alll jittery omj!!!! plz hlp!!!!!!!

i cant stop
no matter wht i do i just cant
i make stuff up to my parents so they dont get suspisios
help

Its soooo hard to quit it seems like I have no other way to release my hurt... alot of people don't understand, they say it makes no sense and doesn't help but its my solution... I defenitly try this though
ThAnks!!!

i used to do it aswell and then my mum found out and thought i was doing it for attantion
and i wear a rubber bands around my wrist so if i feel like cutting i flick it and it hurts and the mark fades
but cuts dont they leave ugly scars
and then you feel ugly and then you cut again its really annoying

and yes it is fucking hard to stop!

wow very true!!!

i have stoped cuttin after i hit a vein .. i didnt mean it.. so it hurted alot and it was very deep thats when i stoped its been 2 months *joy* thank god i stopped.. (:

nice. =]]

okay... those work! (i think...) but when i was depressed so i wouldnt cut myself, i cut paper with scissors to vent. my arm eventually got tired, and after, i got fun confetti

Thank you so much for writing this forum on how to quit. I used to cutt a lot and didnt care if I died or not. Now I kind of have a reason. Thanks much now I dont hurt myself anymore!!!

*hugs*

well i stoped cutting myself a month ago
everytime i wanna cut myself
i juz shout or throw something lol
but it helps!!

What she said actually does help, i figured it out on my own though about 2 years ago... I am proud to no longer be a cutter!

I quit because my best freind said he would stop talking to me if i didnt
even thouhg i knew he wouldnt stop talking to me
but i felt so bad for making him get depressed over me

I really wish i could stop but i don't want to even though i know how wrong it is. Like a lot of crap will happen and i dont know how deal with any of it besides cutting.

First off. I know there is another post about this but they did leave out some things that might be usefull. heres a link to the post:
Stop Cutting
I am not controlling you or trying to invade in your life i just want to help people.
I know some reasons people want to cut or as i put it as having an urge to do it like its a drug that you can't stop. some reasons may be:

Those are just some reasons i know there are more reasons.
