hi I'm sorry if I annoy people I just have no where else to go to. I don't feel anymore I used to cut to feel but lately it hasn't been working yesterday I jumped off a bridge into a river it was a small bridge but when I hit the rocks I felt pain and it felt good. No one knows about this Im not hurt that badly a few cuts and bruises thats all. Why can't I feel pain like that when I cut anymore?

Firstly you don't annoy us when you post here and you're doing the right thing by reaching out. But I really want you to tell your parents or some other adult how you're feeling. It's normal if depression goes untreated for a while, to reach the point where the person feels numb.

As far as the cutting I would recommend visiting the forum section of this website. Go to the self injury forum and read the 'sticky' posts at the top -there is helpful information there.

Are you troubled by anything in your home life? How long have you been feeling like this? It's very important that you never give into suicidal thoughts. Here is a very good website: http://wwwmetanoia.org/suicide/

If you're still in school you can also speak with your school counsellors. Feel free to talk anytime here about your feelings - okay - we don't mind listening. Bella :)

written by chaos the reason you cut is to make yourself feel alive,i no cause at youre age i did the same thing,i am now 49 years old and have started cutting again when im angry at something,and i also just started pulling out my hair,for some reason it makes me feel good ecspecially when ive done something bad.since the age of 13 i have been on one drug or another got married at 20 2 babys by 24 and the biggest coke head and speed freak around but was actually a very good mother,but i feel like the biggest phony because im not what everyone thinks i am,i got addicted to pain killers 10years ago and have finally gone to a psychiatrist 3 years ago for suboxon treatment,also diagnosed with depression and adult adhd,ive been on every mood stabilizer and antidepressant cant tolerate them,so not very happily he put me on adderrall and nerotin,guess what it took me out of the worst depression i can talk to people now where as before i just wanted to stay in bed and wish to die,but my story is just beginning again because the addict in me started out at90mg adderrall a day and i now am up to about 215mg i get the rest of them from another psych,i feel like the biggesst loser im in 80,000credit card dept because of my drug use and almost lost our house twice,i no i should do the right thing and tell the psych but im going to wait awile more for the same reason you cutand hurt yourself its called self punishment which you believe you deserve but you really dont, please go for therapy now dont wait till haif your life is over and keep reapeting the same obsessions over and over again its probably to late for me but you can do it get help and have a wounderful life;;;;
