What does "self-mutilation" mean?

Self mutialtors often don't liek teh term 'self mutilation'.
People cut themself or burn tehmselves or otherwise harm themselves to get rid of emotions they can't let out. Often they can't cry so they cut. People who do cry and cut just cos their friends do are idiots.
Self hmutilators must not be forced into stopping, this really does not help.

Non cutter: Self harm is wrong
Cutter: It's not wrong, it's just the 'wrong way of going about things' (said bitterly)

Self-mutilation - definition

harming ones self on purpose.(burning,cutting, pulling hair, hitting, etc) It is NOT an attempt, or even a sign of suicide. It is not only "emo" or goth kds that do it. Many people do. Some people do it because of depression, attention seeking, and many other reasons. It is not a sign of weakness, it is a cry for help! I know, because i used to cut! And saying bad things about us don't make us better...when people cut it can be just for trends, or for deep emotional problems!! SO STOP SAYING IT IS A TREND OR THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO BE HARDCORE!!! THAT WAS THE LAST THING ON MY MIND WHEN I DID IT!!..........stupid fags....

Self mutilation is a serious problem that needs to be payed more attention to.

Self-mutilation

Self-mutilation is when someone hurts themselves to release some form of pain. Usually cutting, pulling hair, burning, banging etc. Making fun of them is not going to help. Just because you have different ways of coping doesn't mean you should make fun of people that already have problems hating themselves etc. Self-mutilators need help they don't need people picking on them.

Self-mutilation is dangerous. If someone you know is self-mutilating get some kind of help.

Self-mutilation

Hurting yourself in any way at all. Remarkably similar to eating disorders and substance abuse. Can be a cry for attention, a type of self-punishment or just a way of letting out frustration and depression. No matter what the form or reason, this is a disease and a serious, widespread problem. It is also extremely addictive and leads to downwards spirals of reclusive behavior, guilt and high-risk living.

Self-mutilation can be cutting, head-slamming, wrist banging, scratching, picking, burning, bruising- anything painful.
