Scratching has become an addiction

I kind of do the same as you do. Ik scratch my entire back. Only have I bin doing it for just a week now. I scratch until it is almost bleeding and then I will stop. I love how it burns just before I go to bed, but the day after I have to regret it for the whole day because I'm in a dance collage and I can't dance very well because of the pain. I've tried to hide it for my classmates but they noti... click here to continue

second degree burns

As far as blister occur, it seems to be the second degree burn type. In this type the skin color would be changed into red, pink or purple.

I Hit Myself When I Get Angry

Okay, I know I won't be of much help. But I do the same thing. Whenever I'm scared, or anxious I'll lock myself in the closet and hit myself for what seems like hours. I know what it feels like, when you can't stop even though you need to. I'm trying to stop, but it's hard because I just use my hands. You can't cut off your own hands, can you? heh... So you can base my advise on that because I'm n... click here to continue

I love pain. WHY do I love pain?

I don't believe much of what the internet will tell me, but I do however love to consider individuals' different perspectives and some topics. While I won't change who I am based upon what others think, I am genuinely curious to know others' thoughts on this. I used to cut, years ago. I quit. It wasn't doing it for me anymore. So, I grew a habit of punching anything made of glass, which decorat... click here to continue

I think you should get some burn cream. Also, rub neosporin on the open soars/wounds so that they won't get infected. :) Good luck.... click here to continue

cut my self and i feel happy? what

Hi! I would like to possibly give you some words of comfort. I do think that cutting is wrong but reading your post has given me joy. I consider myself a mutant. I "like" pain. The act of liking pain happens in my body. When I feel pain, I "like" it and it becomes a good feeling. I do not do it to the point of destruction however. I am also a violinist. This I think may be linked to my good pain f... click here to continue

I am aware that you may be suffering with your pain but, I actually enjoy reading it. :) Thank you a... click here to continue

I'm a cutter; nothing seems to work. Is there any hope for me?

Yes. Pick up a string instrument. I enjoy pain but I do not do it to the point of self destruction. I think that my ability to play violin may help with my ability to like pain. I actually "like" pain. I turn the pain that I feel in my body into a like. If you pick up a string instrument, you may start to appreciate yourself, if you know what I mean. :) Good luck.... click here to continue

enjoying pain?

This is a great conversation. I too enjoy pain. Although i do not do it to a point where it is destructive. I actually think of myself as a mutant. I "like" pain. I turn pain into a like when I feel it and, i think I've taught another person how to do the same. So, ummmmm, just trying to throw some helpful words out there. :)... click here to continue
