morgan, i have to say that journal entry was very touching. it's good to know that i'm not the only one who sits around and thinks about these things...because it is very sad. i know quite a few people who cut and stuff just because they would rather focus on the physical pain than the mental...it's heartbreaking
God, I wrote an entry about that...almost exactly like that...but it was a "private" thing...more for me and letting out my feelings on a lot. That hit a home run, right there, you know. I remember our talks last year in Mr. Huntley's class...and yeah. I love you soooo much Morgan! I understand the entry and topic...but in a way I can't explain...like you said. And yadda yadda yadda...I know it, I'm so corny...but what can you do? Haha.

Any form of self mutilation is like a comfort blanket for those who do it. Being able to create pain to take away the numbness, or being able to see blood to stimulate your upset mind is a very personal thing. Letting a doctor drug you sounds awful, but can indeed help your mental state, which may then allow yourself to let go of cutting

Yeah, i understand completely. Why I said "cringe" is because i remember things i don't want to. Of myself, no one else. Of just me.. doing things i wish i hadn't, i didn't realize there were so many other things i could have done.
I do understand, however, that it is a comfort blanket. It was mine for almost a year and a half. I slowly put it down, though, and the time to time becomes further and further. I am thankful for that. I wish I could help people with this awful problem, give them hope of some happiness.. but i know its something you have to overcome by yourself.

It has been my comfort blanket, for far too long. Three years now... I think talking about the issue helps overcome the problem though, and I've learned from it to never be ashamed, or regret anything.
