I've started this web site because I want to understand what makes people cut themselves and to give those people (such as
myself) who do cut, a place where they can express them selves completely anonymously and read what other people in similar
situations have to say. I don't only want the stories from those who are currently cutting but also from the people who have
managed to stop. I want to know why you cut and what made you stop. When you talk to a psychologist, or what ever, about
cutting, the first thing they usually assume is that you have experienced some sort of great tragedy because that's what studies
have proven are the leading causes, rape, incest, physical abuse, divorce, and so on. But I haven't experienced any of that
yet I cut and I know there are others out there like me and I want to know why. Now obviously, I am not a psychologist or
a psychiatrist or anything of the sort. I am simply an 18 year old person who cuts and wants help understanding why. If
this site goes as planed I am hoping to eventually use some information I gather to do my thesis paper a billion years down
the road, so any info you have I would appreciate.
What I'm asking you to do is go to the "contact me" page and send me an Email describing why you cut or some one
you know cuts or just any info or comments you have. I want to hear it all even if you would prefer I didn't post your story,
just let me know and it will stay between us. Also, under the "more info" page, I have added my blog where you should
be able to post comments and such.
