Self harm; people think its all for attention. They think its a joke, a choice. A lot of them, think its stupid. Well, heres the thing, self harm? ISNT for attention. Some kids do it for attention, but self harm isnt a choice. Yes, we all choose to do it the first time, but its just like a drug. Its an addiction. Once you get started, you cant stop! You crave it. Its all you think about. But you suffer from it. It takes months or even years to stop and for some people, it takes a life time. You cant just tell a harmer to stop because they cant. Its an mental illness. Telling someone to just stop is like telling someone who has other diseases and illnesses to just get better. While your laughing, and making jokes, their could be tons of kids, sitting in their room or bathroom, in the dark, crying, sliding their blade or razor up and down the wrist and legs, the hardest and fastest they can. Cutting isnt the only thing they do, they all also burn themselves. You all end up with blood coming from you, scratches down you, or burned skin. Just take the time, to sit down, and look at someones wrist. If their clean, smile at them. If not, hold them, and cry along with them! Cause theyre all, probably going through a ROUGH time and hide their scars. Everyone and anybody could do this. Your close friend, a family member, or your best friend. Just, put yourself in their shoes and picture their pain, what their going through, and walk down the path theyve chosen. When you just walk down a hall, and someone shoves you, the first thing you think of is, cut. When you get home, your mom and dad yell at you for not doing the dishes, your homework, or chorse, you instantly think about cutting. Late that night, after you have a bad day, you all walk to your dresser, open your drawers, or your closet or under your bed. Where ever you keep them, pull out your razors or blades and slide them up and down your arms and legs, watch the blood poor out, feel the pain, and cry. When youre all done, you put it back to where you got them, go to bed, get under the covers, and go to sleep, with tears on your eyes! The next day, you wake up, shower, feel the burning on the fresh new cuts, get out, dry off, put on your jeans and long sleeve shirt and walk out the door with that fake smile on your face. The smile holding back your tears, and pain. Pretending to be happy, when in reality, youre depressed, broken, alone, and empty in this world. So, next time you think about saying a joke, pause, and think about it. Put yourself in their shoes and imagine it. 💙👏💜
