why Posted by k on 3/26/2009, 8:51 pm 64.12.116.198 I recently started cutting myself on occasion. I am 26 years old and forced to move back in with my parents due to divorce. My parents are generally good people but towards me they can be very condescending and they lecture or yell instead of actually listening to what I have to say. It was like this when I was a teenager, but then it was supposed to be happening. Now I am adult still getting the "grow up" leccture. I use the cutting when I get so irritated but I can't let out the irritation any other way. I cannot even feel the blade go into my skin, but all the negative emotions flood out. At the same time I feel somewhat empowered by being able to "handle the pain". It may not sound like it makes sense. If you met me you likely would have no idea, but I thought I'd help shed some light.
