When you cut it releases endorphins that gives people a rush I guess. It takes away the emotional pain and it does work. People get addicted to it because they begin to depend on it.

i have no idea. my friend has used to cut, and has the desire to do so again. i do not know what satisfaction she gains out of it.

You shouldn't sacrifice who you are
just because someone else has a problem with it.

It's because when you cut your body releases natural pain killers which you can get a temp high from.

It doesn't mean that much to me,
Sometimes I don't mean that much to you
And I don't even know what I'm hiding for...
And I don't even know what I'm crying for...

Honestly, I can't tell you. It's something you have to experience to understand... the amount of anger and hatred you feel toward yourself to a point where the only thing to remedy it is to physically cut your skin open over and over... and after that first time- it's got a hold on you.

Don't ever start.

There is also a chemical addiction factor.  Your body releases an unnatural amount of endorphins to help with the pain.  If you do it so much, you can be chemically addicted to it.

I don't know, I think I am 70/40 on this issue. I always give it my 110%.
