Are you a cutter?

Meridian ID

Description

I'm trying to understand what drives someone to cut themselves in order to cope with life. Have you ever been a cutter, and would you answer a few questions anonymously for me? I want to understand why people do it, what need it fills, if it helps cope (even temporarily), and if there's anything someone who cares can do to help someone else stop cutting, or if it's better to let them do it as a release valve. I appreciate hearing back from you.
