Harmful Attention Seeking: Cutting - Page 2

*lebasiara* · Mar 18, 2008, 09:20 PM

For me: I hate that attitude in people!
it is lame to hurt oneself to get some attention... I mean what the heck?!?!
with that instead of attention one is getting the pitty of people... hummm actually I take that as lame as the people (mostly women) who cry just because they want attention and the people around them hugging them. For Crying Out Loud!!! if u want a hug ASK for it but don't do lame and stupid stuff...

To be quite honest, I don't see the point.

Cutting because your depressed and cutting simply for attention are pretty much one in the same. If you're depressed and you're cutting yourself, you either really suck at killing yourself or you're trying to send out some kind of message. If you're cutting to be "cool", not only are you stupid--in my own opinion--but you're still seeking attention. Either way, you're either trying to gain something out of it.

We don't give people hi-fives for being jack asses to the general public, we don't pat crack heads on the back for stayin' up on their habits; so why should a cutter get that type of recognition? I've known a couple/few cutters and they've all cut themselves, not to be cool, not to show off; but because they thought it would "fix" their problems. It's no better than doin' it to be cool, but doin' it for the latter reason is plain absurd.

"Yeah, I stab people to be cool," sounds about the same as, "Yeah, I cut myself to fit in," to me.
