Thread Topic: Opinions on Self mutilation and Self harm.
-
Before the sarcastic user comes in, i'm going to explain why I made this thread.
So in English Honors we have to make a project on something. My subject is Self mutilation aka as self harm. Part of the project is to get opinions on the topic.
I need at least 8 opinions from people. Can you guys please help by giving your point of view? Thank you. ^~^
THIS THREAD WAS NOT MADE TO START ARGUMENTS. IT WAS CREATED FOR OPINIONS. SORRY IF IT SOMEHOW TRIGGERS ANYTHING. -
My opinion on this is that self-harm is caused by depression, but the majority of the depression is caused by people who harass, bully etc. the person that does the self-harm. Self-harm could also come from the way the parents treat the person (I know from experience)
-
I think it's mainly stress for a lot of people, not depresssion. Or that you feel really hopeless and bad about yourself (which may or may not be caused by something someone else has done).
-
I think that this is a wrong thing to do, and people shouldn't do it. Instead of cutting yourself, why not puch a punching bag. Try to find another why to let your anger out without hurting someone, yourself, or something else.
-
*why not punch
-
I think that there's no point in self harm. There are plenty of ways to release your feelings. I don't really approve on this.
-
I get why someone does it i just don't agree because if say you were being bullied killing or harming yourself is just letting them win
-
Self harm shows weakness.
-
I disagree it always shows weakness, if a person is making a choice to do it and is aware of what they're doing then that's up to them, even if it seems weird to others.
-
It annoys me to no end, but i tend to think that the attitude of "oohh well ive been through this and this and this and this and *I* never cut" is as dumb as it gets. i always feel like snacking the dude who does that. You cant judge society by an individuals standards. ESPECIALLY your own standards. So i dunno.
I take a page from barberbobs book on this one: if you want to talk, im here for a friend, and if you want a hug, ill tell its gonna be alright..but im not gonna coddle you for f---ing slicing yourself yo xD -
You all aware that self mutilation isn't just cutting, right? There is burning, hair pulling, eye scratching, punching self, just to name a few. Cutting is just the most common.
