Rant thread I'll start.

Teenage self-harm. What the fuck happened in your 15 years of life that caused you to go against literally the most primal human emotion of self-preservation? There are entire fucking organizations to help you dumb ass kids who cut your selves but all you do is keep doing it. I mean really where the fuck are the kids parents I guarantee they're white. White people in general are fucking retards. Seriously look up self-harm and you won't see a single black kid.

Black kids hurt each other

Better than themselves. At least there's a chance of two going down at once

How old are you? How many people do you know that have harm or attempted/committed suicide?

The brain of an adolescent is very plastic and able to create strong, lasting neuro-connections relative easily.
One's ability to strengthen one's aptitude is significantly reduced past the age of around 25 years.
After that, one's ability to strengthen one's bare basic ability to do things like memorize things, calculate, all other things stemming from that is just significantly reduced.
However, one's ability to recall stored information quickly and keep long-term memory is significantly increased.
Also, one can still learn and apply various techniques to improve one's ability of memorizing things and what not.
Knowledge, intelligence, and determination can compensate for each other.

>tl;dr
The teenage brain is still developing, so teenagers are illogical, impulsive, and delusional. Cognitive performance and what not is sacrificed for ability to increase intelligence.

white kids shoot up schools

What's your ethnicity?

Having good genetics is like a Plusle that hatched at level 5.
Having average genetics is like a Minun that hatched at level 2.

For now, the Plusle is better than the Minun at Pokémon battle.

If you level up both the Plusle and Minun 2 more levels, the Plusle will be at level 7, and the Minun will be at level 4.
At this point the Plusle is the better Pokémon.

So far:
Plusle = level 7
Minun = level 4

Now, if the Minun were to go and train by himself, and level up 4 more levels while the Plusle sat on his ass playing Digimon, the Minun would be at level 8, and the Plusle would still be at level 7.

At this point, the Minun is stronger than the Plusle.

Plusle = level 7
Minun = level 8

Once upon a time, there was a young monk.
This monk studied and practiced martial arts, and enjoyed it so.
The monk was hiking through a forest, and eventually found a mountain.
Upon reaching the top of the mountain, he found a bracelet.
He put it on.
The bracelet made it so he could only do 80% as well as he could without the bracelet on, but the bracelet would bring him pleasure, despite the lasting permanent effects it has on his mind.
The monk continued to study and practice with the bracelet on, and noticed how it made him weak, even though he still performed a lot higher than his fellow monks.
He would even do well despite how the bracelet caused him to sit still doing nothing productive while it left him in pleasure.
Many rises and falls of the moon had past, and the monk had contemplated and meditated on the subject of the bracelet and his life.
The monk came to the conclusion that he valued mastery and knowledge of martial arts more highly than he did pleasure.
The monk realized that he would forever be further away from his goals with martial arts because of the bracelet.
Though he struggled, the monk was able to cast the bracelet into a volcano so that it may corrupt him no longer.
The monk then shed a bittersweet tear, the monk knew that he could continue strongly on the martial arts journey he had decided for his life, though he also knew that he would forever be less of a man than he would've been if he were to never have discovered the bracelet.
The monk stored his story in the archives so that all monks after him may be enlightened, and not make similar mistakes to those that he had made.

Porn is cancer on Sup Forums


We literally have boards for pornography:
PS: I formally request that pornography be posted on their respective boards.

I'm 30, live at home, have had so many diagnosis and medications given and taken that at this point I just take them for guesses, I've been in and out of mental health facilities and have done several stints in intensive care units for serious suicide attempts, I've been escorted to hospital by police, I'm not allowed to drive and my medications and conditions do not allow me to work or make a contribution to society no matter how much I want to. If I miss an appointment, they send the cops after me. My lot is to watch life pass by until I die.

But never have I ever self-harmed just for the sake of it and I've never understood people who do. Would like to understand what is the motivation behind it.

I sexually Identify as a steel beam. Ever since 9/11 I dreamed of getting drawn closer and closer to my melting point by jet fuel under the Twin Tower letting them drop on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a steel beam is Impossible and I’m fucking retarded but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install steel beams and jet fuel on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Steel Beam” and respect my right to not melt by jet fuel and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a steeliphobe and need to check your metallic privilege. Thank you for being so understanding.

Why don't retards like you read?

What the fuck is this thread?

can we get an ITT

OP is faggot

>just for the sake of it
I don't think many people do that. It's usually an expression of psychological distress or a way to ask for help

i self harm 'cause i like how it feels
i just dig the feel of pain c:
nothing about the blood, it doesn't make me feel 'alive' or whatever
but damn the shivers i get when i feel a line of pain along my arm are enough to give me the jizzies
don't get me started about doubling over

15 year old here and i completely fucking agree. Like I got bullied in elementary school but you know what? I got over it. Do I sometimes think about because that's what happens when my mind wanders yes, but I'm not crying about it. Honestly we are all so fuking stupid and what's worse is that I'm friends with these types of faggots and I'm like "Oh my god. Get over it. How our you suppose to take care of yourself if all you guys do is mope and complain." Like none of my friends ever want to do anything. I always have to put the events together and invite people, it's always fucking me and then like 3 people show up. I fucking hate it.

would you say you're addicted to self harm

> I don't understand why people do certain things so I immediately get angry for it

This is literally what niggers do. Are you a nigger OP? Learn to control your reactions to certain events and happenings.

It will save you so much stress.

well self harming is a person compromise. they have the urge to die, but they don't know how to or don't actually want to kill themselves. they cut and the pain is a relief. every cut you make is preparing you for when you're ready to jump off the bridge. It's physically relieving too.

it makes them feel good at least temporarily
the physical pain makes them forget about the psychological pain

oh god yeah
i should probably really be locked up in a mental health facility somewhere
it just feels too good to stop, and a few mistakes made it that much easier to hide!
>normie in the streets
>autie self-harmer in my room where i spend all my time when not at work

Second this. Porn has taken over Sup Forums 80% of the threads in catalog are porn

It's retarded but some people are addicted to the adrenaline that is released when they self-harm. They use it as a way to make themselves feel better if they are sad and too stupid to figure out a healthier way like watching a movie, eating their favorite food, working out, masturbating, anything.

Assumption from:
>self-harmed a lot when I was preteen
>went into hospital
>dr told me I could just be doing above ^
>"oh god I'm retarded"
>stopped
>grew up and am happy

this is probably me, in all honesty
but i'm pretty happy honestly, or just lying to myself to perpetuate my unending desire to hurt myself for the rush
could be the adrenaline, but the initial cuts are what do it for me

I'd say you should go in right now while you're self-harming and not wait until you try to kill yourself. Not because being an hero is worse, but they will keep you in the mental health ward for less time for suicide than they will for self-harming. The doctors there might sound a bit stupid and the process repetitive but it's really good for being forced to detach from the normal habits that lead to self-harm.
>personal experience

This post literally started making me think about casting my xbox one and computer into a volcano.

feeling something, even if it hurt, was better than feeling numb all the time

I've been a few times already
I don't really feel a desire to kill myself though. at least, not until my mom is dead
she's pretty much the only person I really don't want to make sad with my death because she'd dealt with enough in her own life and doesn't deserve to have her child's suicide on her mind, but she's incredibly healthy.
barring some horrible accident, i'll be alive for some time, and probably some time after with what few friends I have. I'll just become a recluse from intensifying depression and end it quick once the lease on my apartment runs out so I'm not a rent burden to my roommates post-death
a 357 is probably enough

Well at least you didn't sit on your ass playing digimon.

I fucking hate Mexicans. They can't do anything right, they're lazy, uneducated, pollute a lot, are rude if they don't know you personally and don't seem to do anything to help their image.
They only care what people think about Mexicans if you call them out on their shit and that's when they start telling you how wonderful their country is.
Otherwise they just do the same shit they always do.

My problem with this? I'm Mexican. I want to get the hell out of this shithole but I'm afraid people will treat me like shit in first world countries (If I ever make it to one of them) just because of what my people do. I'm not like them.

Fuck Mexicans, man. I'd like to support the #BuildTheWall thing but that would only make it harder for me to get the fuck out.

Rant over.

I'm curious as to whether or not you actually want to understand.
To put it most simply, for many it's an emotional outlet. If your emotions have nowhere else to go, the healthier option is to take it out on yourself rather than hold it all in or make it someone else's problem.

I used to self-harm when I was about 16/17 years old. It was really, really stupid. However, you are addressing depressed teenagers with spite and not compassion. In many cases, it has nothing to do with the environment. It may be biological. There was no sense in my actions. It's irrational. Because depression itself is irrational.

I regret them every day, because self-harm makes it difficult for me to progress throughout my career.

I ended up moving on, albeit with a permanent row of scars on my arm. Ended up joining the military. Go figure.

I started selfharming in 4th grade. Idk why. Life wasn't great but damn, 4th grade? I was obviously mental. Anyways

I'm a pale mexi fag btw

Now armpits

Also no longer selfharming and thankfully they've faded super well. Can't cut anymore bcuz im on immunosuppressors, I'd get an infection and die. Here's my HS currently, the best it's been in years, although I'm having bad reactions to the meds

Scar tissue and scars are doing much better

kill yourself

it feels good tbh
like a sip of a cold coke on a hot summers day

Instead of cutting yourself, why not down a bottle of hot sauce?

Jesus Christ, shut the fuck up. Also, MODS

I only started it in my 20's and I dont do it to die.
Havent been doing it in about 6months now, but I do it deal with strong negative emotions. If I get really angry, really depressed, really anxious I just calm myself with that. It works everytime and the sensation of cutting feels so incredibly good. Its intoxicating.
I considered quitting it once I learned to deal with my emotions better, but since my left arm is already completely fucked, I dont see why I should completely quit it. Im harming no one else, I use clean tools, I know what Im doing and Im not going to get myself killed, why is that a problem? You dont see me bitching at people who smoke which is infinitely more harmful to you. Letting blood is only healthy if something.

Tried it once actually, its just uncomfortable and doesnt give relief of any sorts. Also the shits the following morning were true torture.
I'd rather cut myself.

>letting blood
how medieval are you?

I did this while also self harming and now that I can't sh anymore I just do stupid shit like this.

>you were born after 2000

Jesus fucking christ I really need to stop coming here

Used to do it as a teenager, I definitely started with it cause I was somewhat of an outcast and wanted attention, but over time it just got addicting. It's somewhat comparable to masturbating, you reach a high and a feeling that isn't really like anything else. Over time I managed to quit it, still got some slightly visible scars over my left arm but whatever, at least I ain't no pussy ass bitch no mo'.

Not very, I just wanted to sound less negative.

MODS

I didn't have access to drugs or alcohol and my parents thought taking me to a doctor would reflect poorly on them so it was my only way to deal with my panic attacks and anxiety.

I didn't do it to get attention, I didn't do it because I wanted to kill myself. It was just the one thing I found that let me control my anxiety enough that I could function.

Lol you're about to get b&
MODS

>tfw you fill bottles with your own blood
Just tap your vein and watch that blood fly out, pretty fun.

As someone that cut for a bit, quite simply put, our lives are so fucking easy now that the only way to get any sense of emotion is cutting (i.e. an adrenalin rush). I used to play sports before an injury, and I guess I missed the rush. Mix it with alcohol and you get a pretty heady high

im 10 will i get v&

I never did this but I belonged to a subreddit full of selfharmers that did this. They also played with congealed blood and learned their anatomy so they could cut SUPER deep and avoid killing themselves. It made me sick and was one of the reasons I decided to quit. Didn't want to go down that path

endorphins are released by pain you faggot

Yes

>15 year old here and i...

let me just stop you right there nigger

I guess its good if you managed to quit one way or another. While not as harmful as some make it out to be, it aint exactly something you should be doing.

It's pretty dangerous for me considering I have no immune system. I wish people would stop hurting themselves completely but the least I can do is help them get educated about their body, aftercare and infections. The rest is up to them
