I've been properly cutting on my stomach for like 1-2 months now, about 65 times, and i've been thinking about talking to someone and going through scenarios in my head but i dont think i'll do it, cause they might think i'm just attention seeking and being stupid and annoying, and i don't know if i am or not
 ? I see all these people's stories that say they've been cutting for years so i just feel like i'm cheating or something and i haven't earned the right to tell someone and i'm just a wuss. Basically i'm just a bit confused as i guess quite a few people om here are and any comments/replies would be nice

Hi northpole, welcome to PC. If you are SI, you are in distress and deserve help. What is your plan to seek help?

You should seek help. Just the fact that you have been hiding it should let you know that you are doing it for motives that are not attention seeking. Just because you haven't been doing it for 'long' doesn't mean you don't deserve help. A lot of us just refused to acknowledge that it was a problem early on. Or were to scared of how others would react. I'm assuming you are a teen (sorry if I am wrong, it's just a guess). Do you have an adult you trust and can be open with? A teacher or school counselor, youth leader, family friend, or parents. Do you have any idea why you are cutting? Issues at home, issues with school, relationship problems. What emotions are you trying to escape?

I'm figuring out what to do right now, but thank you so much for replying, just seeing that someone actually took the time to do that made me feel quite emotional

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
