Impresarioz Ah, ok, I knew you had troubles in the past but I didn't want to jump to any conclusions. My scars (self inflicted) are burn scars. I don't mind them but I know what you mean when you say people can be a little judgemental. Emphasis on the mental part xd
3nodding Aye, I get stuck with the stupid fad group, because I look young, ya know? "oh youreonw of those stupid ******** goth kids arn't ******** emo whore" it's like, come on, some of us didn't do that for the fad, it was a legitimate addiction just like cigarettes, it's been scientifically studied. I didn't do it for attention, I didn't do it because it was cool. I did it because it helped me out, and kept me AWAY from trying to kill myself.
I hate people like that.. but I also hate all those twats that do it for the fad, or cause it's "soooo cool" >_<+
Yeah...the cutting almost landed me a year long gig in an mental instatution, but I moved to another town instead lol
I had a big relapse when Jon deployed to Louisiana, right before he left, but I promised him I'd never do it again, and havn't. and mean to keep my promise, I saw the pain and worry and hurt in his eyes and was like "******** this s**t, I never wanna be the reason for that emotion in his eyes/heart again"

 I actually think its really cute. Although, it'd look a bit better if you just poof out the back part of it. 3nodding heart Or, you could get it a little bit layered in the back. The bangs rock, though.

Interestingly enough, in another guild, I was having something of a discussion on that issue, Joker. I understand what you're saying completely. Here is my slightly longish reply sweatdrop I personally stayed away from the whole issue of self mutilation just for the fact that it can be indeed, such a heated discussion. The human mind can be so frail and yet stubourn at the same time. I have known many, many people who are cutters or done eaqually, to me, stupid things. Now, please don't misread that. I am not calling any one stupid. I just find the act itself stupid because all it does is perpetuate a cycle that can be near impossible to break. I am sure that was mentioned somewhere in one of these long posts I am reading back on. My g/f, for example, used to do drugs, in spite of the fact I am dead set against them. Why did she do this? To try to get the people at her new job to like her, to "fit in" She knew I would be very disappointed in her for doing it but couldn't help herself just because she wanted to be liked so much. Before she met me, she was a cutter. Most cutters I have known, have done it more as a cry for help because they knew something was seriously wrong in thier lives but coud not find a way to express it so that they could either change it or get help. One of my friends, a bulemic, ended up not only hospitalised but sent to a pshyc ward for 3 weeks because of it. Again, a need to fit in and a need to control something in her life lead her to some nasty decissions. Oh, and for the record, we all have scars, just not all are easy to see. Most are hidden safely in our heads, where only we can look at them.
Like Zen said, a fear of rejection can be a pretty harsh thing. I have issues with that even to this day. I did this, amongst other things about 6 months before my relationship with my exwife (yes, even a family man with kids can suffer serious depression) ended. I saw things were so out of control, pain was the only thing I could find a way to master at the time.

It says DREAM. Its kinda heard to read because its faded. I used a tiny piece of metal, slowly burning each letter into my flesh. I chose the word dream as a reminder to not give up. I needed a small reminder that not all of the things I held dear in my life had been taken from me. I also have an inverted cross on my wrist where typically suicide victums cut themselves.
These days, though things still get tough (like paying off 100k in your ex's debts cause the courts hate men and always side with the mom) I never want to end things, just control them. Funny how men can be that way confused
