voices in their head and images all to do with self harm. Hard to explain i just get these really bad thoughts. and its so hard not to follow them up and voices saying im useless and that its the only real thing about me and stuff.

Um I don't exactly get that, but sometimes I'll just keep thinking "CutCutCutCut" in my head and it's like I can hear myself saying it...if you get that?

I do... They play over and over when im under stress and want to cut i get the thoughts and voices saying ur usless, wimp, loser, etc

Depends on what you mean by voices. Your present day voice telling yourself to cut, a memory of your voice at a different age telling you to cut, someone elses voice that you have been in contact with telling you to cut or a voice that is not familiar in any wat telling you to cut.

Yea I get voices and pictures. Mine are from flashbacks and my memory pieces. (memorys of me at other ages cutting) Im not told im useless at the same time that I get them. Its like I'll be talking to someone and suddely the picture of blood and something (me an object I don't know that yet just something) is being cut or has ben cut and the word cut repeats. Sometimes the picture is my arm being cut and I know that as a teen I was a cutter so I know that picture is a memory of me cutting at some point and just flashbacking on me. I also sometimes get urges to cut and the word cut repeats and I can recognise its my present voice saying to myself to cut. Just like I would say to myself I think Ill read this book now and do it.

I don't get voices for example of cooking something and having that stove or meal tell me to cut or them (stove or meal) telling me by telepathy radio wave, microwaves to cut. I don't get voices of people around me and people I don't know telling me to do it .

When I do get the cutting urges, voices and pictures I do a variety of things. Sometimes just reminding myself its a memory not happening right now settles things down, other times writing works and still other times taking a bike ride or walk clears my head.
