Re: Harmful Attention Seeking: Cutting

I see people who actually have mental and/or physiological issues [in their brain] and are practicing in self-mutilation need help. Quick. It's not like they themselves can consciously force their brain to function normally, to release a balanced number of chemicals, etc...

If someone thinks self-mutilation is cool... At first, I thought, "Hey, it's self, long as it doesn't involve anyone else, it's fine." but now I've changed my thoughts. Showing off their cuts to crowds of people? I think it's likely to hav any adverse effects on these crowds, especially youths, who are especially impressionable (developing minds and whatnot).

Public self-mutilation am I saying that right? would only further increase the craze... And I personally dislike the idea of increasing numbers of otherwise productive people cutting theselves.

Self-mutilation by otherwise sane people should be punished, in my perspective. Those who actually have mental disorders simply need help.
