Does anyone know if AphexSam is OK?

The body responds to pain by releasing endorphins, which can cause pleasurable sensations.

Instead of cutting you could do regular and challenging exercise, which also releases endorphins.

You could also develop a heroin habit.

People don't cut themselves to "feel better". They cut themselves because they hate themselves. I sometimes urt myself, although its ot cutting because its punishment for being a pathetic sack of s**t.

Non cutters won't ever understand.

And yeah, advising someoneto get addicted to drugs is really good advice

Anything's better than slashing yourself to bits.

Other good sources of endorphins: chocolate and love-making.

'sigh'

Well, in the past the way forward when treating self-cutting young women was to put them on lithium.

Lithium no doubt makes cutting less rewarding by reducing the pain/endorphin release ratio.

I hope so, too. His last post was April 5. I wish he'd at least come back to this thread and let everyone know that he is okay.

You gotta love it when it acts like it does nothing, but puts it up anyway.

one of my arms is covered with cigarette burns. One of my legs too. I tell people i got in a fight with a humbolt squid. I dont hate myself though.

Anyway, maybe they are somewhere in recovery and that's why they havn't replied yet. Maybe.. Though it's a guess, and we won't know otherwise unless they say something.

i sometimes headbang or punch the wall till have either skin hanging off,ive calmed down or till i have a mark
