Why do I cut myself for no reason?

Sometimes the pain of cutting allows us to feel other pain. Physical pain. We see it as an outlet to try and mask or hide emotional pain. Cutting should never be the solution. Maybe sometimes we dont find the right people to talk to or the ones who actually listen and care. I remember a time where I was helping a couple of my friends through their thoughts of cutting. 1 actually did it physically. The scars that get left behind often tell a dark story. One that sometimes we dont want people to know about, especially if we've overcome that batter. Remember this, thos scars will last forever, never make that story available for ever. But the blade down, walk outside and take a deep breath! Hear the birds? Feel the cool air? That means your alive, and alive for a reason!
