self injury is one of the worst things that can happen to a person...i kno from experience...gettin info out there is the best thing to try to help it:-)

I agree... a lot of people don't acknowledge that it's an actual problem and don't understand. It's so important to get the info out there and try to help those that still injure themselves, if and when they want help. *hugs*

yes! it's something I feel very strongly about, and I want to help. seeing how many other people care deeply about this issue has been inspiring.

Thank you for bringing this awareness to your live journal site. It is ever so important that we share our feelings with others. I once got upset with one of my tendencies and wrote a corresponding entry in my live journal. A few friends thought that it wasn't appropriate for them to read it, but that was the whole reason why I had posted it out in the open.

Thank you -- I didn't realize anyone had commented on this post and only just saw your response.

I can understand that some people would rather not know because it makes them uncomfortable, and I can respect that, but at the same time... I think it's very, very important that this information is out in the open.

Wasn't cool of you to get my hopes up that you'd actually talk to me again...

oh and by the way, I didn't ask that lightly. There was a day when I was really out of it, to the point where i had a knife in my hand and I was running the blade accross my fingertips, wondering what it would be like to cut myself to try and forget about the pain.
