Someone I love very much has started to cut themselves. He said he did it because he was angry and he wanted to hurt me, but instead he hurt himself. I love him so much, I would do anything to help him if I knew what to do. But he won't tell me that there's a problem. He says that he handled it and it's over. I am so afraid that when he gets angry again, he will cut himself again or maybe worse.

Everybody gets angry and has pain in their lives. I do too and this very thing is something that causes me great pain. I feel guilty, helpless, frightened and hopeless. If there is someone that loves you that much and wants to help you deal with your pain, why not trust in that and give something else a try? Can there be another way to deal with the pain besides hurting yourself? Because that doesn't really "deal" with it, it only takes your focus away from the real pain for a time. Unless, you truly deal with what is hurting you, it will never go away.

If there is someone in your life that you love and loves you, hopefully your parents, give them a try. I want so much to understand and I want to help this person that I love and would give my life for him. People CAN help other people. That's just one of the reasons we are not alone in this world. There are a lot of people out there. Some are easier to talk to than others, but they are out there. Isn't your life worth trying? If it isn't to you, I'd bet that your life is worth a lot to someone else!

I believe this person is in my life to love and care for. He is a very special gift in my life and I couldn't bear it if he were gone. I can't even bear that he is in so much pain and that he feels this is the only way to stop it. How can I help him? Let someone help you!

You're not just making yourself feel better..............you are causing hurt to others. Let them help you!!!
