Have you ever self-harmed?

No

 

I don't understand the impulse to cut yourself

 

I know depressed teenagers do it but do adults ever self-harm?

Like people in their late 20s or older

Of course. Everyone can potentially do it. That's like saying that only teenagers can be depressed.

I've never heard of cutting in older people

Depression can manifest in different ways at different ages

I suppose adults do it, but they don't announce it to the world like teens

Yes. I'm 31 and have been self-harming for yrs. It began as a teenager.  It's a mental issue. Some people get addicted to it though.  For me I know it's a mental issue.  Whenever I feel as though I've done something wrong and am already depressed it only comes along to punish myself for something.  I cover things up though with clothes or if it's summer with makeup. I'm borderline personality I am pretty confident in saying (never been professionally diagnosed no time or money for that) and I'm an intense emotional person.

Just because you don't know them don't mean we don't exist. I used to be more on a mental issue forum and there were plenty of self-harmers on there my age.

Yes, I did. But it is years ago. I stoped as i got caugh by my ex.bf back than. And i realize that it dont helps me much. The pain of the cut dont last for that long. The pain inside me back than was still bigger as the pain of the cut. It made no sence to me, and since i got caugh the things became even worser. I am glad that he didnt tell it my Mom. But he sad to me clear, that if he only once will caugh again doing this he will immediatelly call the hospital and bring me there. (meaning.. in the psychiatry). Its not i had a chance or so as to quite.

Back in HS, I did.

I once tried cutting myself with a broken glass. Knowing that it won't cut me immediately unlike sharp blades, I scratched it on my arm until it bled. It's just a little scar tho.

 

Then I started pricking my fingertips with a needle. I remember I pricked a fingertip 10 times before switching to the next one. I'm really not afraid of needles/syringes in general so it's kinda easier to do.

 

And actually, I think after what happened to me recently, I'll be going back to this kind of self-harming.

Maybe worse.

Right now I'm doing my best not to, but it's becoming harder and harder to refuse.
