I know exactly what you mean - it's become somewhat of a 'trend' and people have really been downsizing what it actually means, but it's a real problem that is potentially life threatening.

I think that cutting has been almost 'glamourised' or become some sort of a trend in some people's eyes which makes it seem silly and insignificant, but in fact it's incredibly real and incredibly dangerous. I'm glad I could open your eyes to this, one day it might be of use to you and you might be able to help someone in a similar situation. xIsobel Rosehttp://www.isobel-rose.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523867671394228889.post-38961671138286650062015-01-17T02:47:07.043+00:002015-01-17T02:47:07.043+00:00Thank you for your comment Leila.

For me, this post was really eye opening because I've never cut and I don't know any one who has (Or maybe I do but they keep it to themselves which is understandable) To hear cutting being described as a gravitational pull is really powerful and really touched me. I cannot imagine anything like it. I'm glad to hear you're much better. It's important to know that a lot of people have hiccups and return to their vices. You're not alone. <br /><br />Wonderful and thought provoking blog.

I often have trouble expressing myself clearly when trying to explain myself. <br />I started cutting at 17 and now, at 30, I finally have control over it, though it's not gone. In the back of my mind, it remains an option out of habit. My scars are still prominent, but after a while, you kind of don't see them any more. They're just a part of you, like a mole or birthmark. But other people DO notice. You're right: It's an addiction. Somewhere in the act, we find an "effective" way to feel immediate relief and in control. <br />Like you said, people who self-harm CAN get through it. It's could take some time and isn't easy, but it's possible and absolutely worth it.Leila F.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523867671394228889.post-49424618168105304782015-01-07T15:49:54.778+00:002015-01-07T15:49:54.778+00:00This is such a brave post - I may just send a quic...This is such a brave post - I may just send a quick email to you soon! <3 xx<br /><br /><br />nessiehere.blogspot.co.ukVanessa Nunnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523867671394228889.post-24746314322505963302015-01-07T13:58:52.530+00:002015-01-07T13:58:52.530+00:00This is a wonderfully honest post.

I had many friends in school who self-harmed, and also worried my sister was doing the same at 13 last year (she wasn't - thankfully - but was trying to support a friend in a misguided way by saying she was).
