if you've never ever cut/self-harmed before, please don't start. you need to understand what you're getting yourself into. it's nothing like what you think it's like. you can't stop whenever you want. first you'll start with little cuts here & there, thinking it's no big deal. soon, those little cuts won't be enough. you'll have to go deeper. it'll become an addiction that you have to keep feeding. you won't know what's gotten into you, but all you'll be able to think about is cutting. there goes your grades, friends, & family. there goes your life. you'll have to cut every night just to feel slightly okay. it'll get harder & harder trying to cover them up. people will question why you're always wearing sleeves or why you flinch when they touch your arm. please don't start.
