Cuts can get infections and it would seem like your sick if you cut youself because only dumb people would cut thier own body, flesh and bleed your own blood just to solve a problem which cutting can not solve at all.

well its self mutilation, the name in itself sounds bad.
but also you're cutting your body open so therefore those cuts have a high chance of getting infected and you could die from that.

If you cut yourself for fun or whatever you are mentally unstable and should seek help immediately and if you think its reasonable to cut yourself you should also seek mental help.

Been there, done this.:p
It's just not really healthy.
Going around hurting yourself physically [mentally too]
is just not what we were created to do.
I went to counseling.
Which surprisingly did help, even though I hated it immensely at the time.
But yeah. I think that you should look into another subject, project, or thing that will give you that release.
I went into physical activities...
i.e. running.
It's really good for you and gives you a "high" if you push yourself enough.
But if you're not into exercising, I recommend pottery.
I started that this year, and it's really relaxing.

It is showing that you are mentally unstable. A lot of people cut themselves for attention too, which is so sad. I'm not going to say it is dumb because hey... I don't know your life but really it doesnt magically make your mental pain go away when you physically harm yourself. Honestly you are just tricking your mind into thinking that is whats happening.

Because you can hurt yourself. Soon scissors won't go deep enough or you aren't bleeding enough so you keep going bigger and more dangerous until you do serious damage. Pain is the body's way of telling you that something is happening that is not supposed to happen. When you cut yourself, it hurts. That's how you know you shouldn't be doing it.

Cutting is bad because it is self mutilation and is from an apparent severe case of low self esteem. Get help with it or find a way to boost your self esteem. Thats what I did and it helped a lot.

beacuse it lets your body know that you need pain. pain is a bad habit to get into. it you keep doing it, you might smoke later in life, or drink and drive. it's a bad habit.

Girl, it's just not healthy. If you are in such a bad mood that you want to cut, find something else to do that isn't as extreme. I know it's not as bad as killing yourself, but nothing is. You can't justify purposely hurting yourself that way. Ask someone to help you-just not one of your friends that cuts themselves too.

Cutting is bad because it is you trying to handle your problems in a useless way. It is a temporary fix that does nothing to get to explain or fix why you are feeling so badly. Basically it does not fix a problem but rather puts a band aid on it.
Another problem with cutting is that, similar to other addictions, it can take more and more to give you the same effect. This means that cutting can lead to more serious ways of hurting yourself.
If you are having a problem with cutting, please get professional help. Cutting does not mean you are crazy or sick, it simply means that you need to find other ways of dealing with your stress or emotions. If you need someone to talk to, please feel free message or e-mail me.

Infections are a concern, under the right (or wrong as it may be) conditions if you got an infection you'd probably try to treat it yourself because you'd fear asking for medical help as they'd question how you obtained the cuts and....yeah...you'd try to avoid that situation. So you have an infection, it becomes gangrenous and you lose limb, or perhaps life. That 's an extreme example, but it could happen.
Aesthetically, you can be left with scars, which isn't always pleasing. And the risk, even when you know what your doing, of cutting an artery is always there.
But the main reason people are against it, isn't because of the cutting, its what the cutting is a symptom off. Depressions, anxiety, suppression of abuse, whatever it maybe, people don't cut unless they are unhappy and if you can help treat the unhappines you should hopefully stop the cutting.

"It just won't go deep enough" because you didn't want it to. Once you get sucked into that whole mess you can go as deep as you want and it won't matter what you use. Knife, Razor, Scissors, **** even paper clips and staples and sharp rings. The point is it's addictive and not good for you. It's bad because you can hurt yourself and be ****** up for life.

You're focusing on the physical act of cutting as being the 'bad' part, but it actually stems from self-hatred and similar feelings of worthlessness, which is never a good palce to be and can be overcome. Yes, cutting is better than killing, but neither is good. You're justifying it by picking the lesser of the two evils, but it doesn't change the fact that both are wrong and damaging to your life.

Well, it can hurt you. You're setting yourself up for infection every time you do it. If you ever notice red lines coming from your cuts that go up your arm/leg, that's an infection and it's heading for your heart.

Are you justifying why ppl can hurt themselves??? Most ppl don't want to cut themselves and there's something very wrong with them psychologically. YOU, on the other hand, sound like you do it for attention specifically or bc you think it's cool... This is a very dumb question....

Although cutting may provide some temporary relief from a terrible feeling, even people who cut agree that it isn't a good way to get that relief. For one thing, the relief doesn't last. The troubles that triggered the cutting remain — they're just masked over.
People don't usually intend to hurt themselves permanently when they cut. And they don't usually mean to keep cutting once they start. But both can happen. It's possible to misjudge the depth of a cut, making it so deep that it requires stitches (or, in extreme cases, hospitalization). Cuts can become infected if a person uses nonsterile or dirty cutting instruments — razors, scissors, pins, or even the sharp edge of the tab on a can of soda.
Most people who cut aren't attempting suicide. Cutting is usually a person's attempt at feeling better, not ending it all. Although some people who cut do attempt suicide, it's usually because of the emotional problems and pain that lie behind their desire to self-harm, not the cutting itself.
