"i tend to agree with joyce, that when people cut, sure-they have a problem, but most of them have a problem of seeking attention of people around them. if suicide was on your mind, you wouldnt cut at random places, you’d cut at strategic places and deep enough, this way, your goal might be achieved. plus, if suicide really was your goal, you’d need a significant amount of courage to cut, most people find cutting painful, okay, so if hurting yourself, without the intention of suicide is your way out, i dont think anyone in a right frame of mind would agree it’s the right way. heck, even if suicide was a way out for you, i still wouldnt agree"
Cutting is not meant as a suicide attempt. It is a coping mechanism.
