First off if you don't want to feel the pain then simply don't do it. Cutting will be no means solve anything, rather it will just be a permanent reminder of something stupid you did when you were upset rather then just talking to someone about it and overcoming that, or at least that's how I feel when I see my scars. So please talk to someone on here it's way more effective and healthy to do so then by pressing a blade across your skin. I hope you make the right decision.

The simplest answer I can give you is to not cut. Cutting is serious, and extremely addictive, like any of form of self-harm. I've always cut because I felt numb. I used it as a way to make sure I'm still alive. If you don't want to feel pain, cutting isn't what you want to do. Or any other self-harm.

I am so glad that people here are deterring you from doing this.
As cutting isn't something done for attention,as some ignorant people still believe,but it is trying to mask emotions that are in need of getting help for.
It's important you get those issues sorted out,if it means get some help professionally than do the best you can to do so.
As we dont know your age,or if you have spoken to your parents,or partner,etc try to speak to some one who you have some good relationship with.
If you are at school for example then please speak to a teacher or councilor before you start attempting to do this to yourself.You are important in this life,and you need to look after yourself on the inside.I understand its not always easy with life's challenges,but...you can do it! .
Take care ok!

I want you to imagine this: you're holding a new born baby. Now imagine yourself cutting that baby, punching that baby, burning that baby. Could you do it? Hopefully not. You couldn't dare hurt a baby. It didn't do anything wrong! And neither did you! Imagine your body as a new born baby next time you want to hurt yourself in any shape way or form. Your body deserves love and respect; it didn't do anything to deserve being hurt.

Cutting is only for when you need to feel something other than emotions. it's for when you need to feel something real. The point is to feel pain and if you don't want to feel pain than obviously cutting isn't for you. I'm not promoting cutting I just totally understand it

I know your pain, you hurt yourself on the outside to kill the monster inside, but you are no monster,please don't cut your skin, there's no point it's one big vicious cycle you get sad, you cut, it helps, you regret it , you feel bad, you get sad, you cut.

ok, heres how. you take a razor you hold it put it to your skin and realize that you are causing permanent pain and that it is not worth it, no matter the pain you are in. it wont change a single thing, it will just bring more pain. please dont even think of doing this. people love you, and they dont want to see you in pain. there is always something in the world to be happy about. no matter how dark it seems, there is light. please find that light soon.

Cutting should never be the answer to the pain, and no good comes from it. I recommend talking to someone and/or writing about everything that's happening and how you feel. Perhaps keep a private journal. If you ever feel the sudden urge to cut instead of grabbing a blade you can hold an ice cube in the palm of your hand. It sheds no blood, is not detrimental to your health, and the cold stings so it may help get over your urge. Sometimes talking to people with similar experiences also helps.

I really need help with all this

I know cutting is a coping mechanism but (and I'm sure you've heard this a million times) you shouldn't do it. Try holding an ice cube in your hand, hold it really tight, or put an elastic band on your wrist and ping it when you feel the need to cut. Try talking to people and try and express that way. I know its tough but cutting won't help, try and pull through, you can do it.
