Ok, long sort short, I cut. I can't halp it but I do. I know I need help but I'm too afrade to ask for it. I used to pray and sak God to show be who to confide in, but it has not worked. I hear nothing. What shoul I do?
Next, I'm lazy. well, to some exstent. I have dance practice 3 days a week and no time for Homework or Readign my bible. I'm slacking of in my prayer (Which I never really did in the first place) and because of all of this I'm staring to feel like a really bad Chrisitan.
At sometime in my life I had come to the conclusion that I wanted to 'end' my life on my birthday (April 18th), but after a 40 min talk with my best friend Kessia I disided not to. I won't.

I would strongly suggest speaking to your parents about the cutting. If they aren't people you approach, why not tell Kessia? Or a favorite teacher? A counselor? Someone needs to know about this, because they can help you. It is good that you have tried praying to God about who to confide in for help, but there's a chance you can't hear His reply.
As for being lazy, I admit to falling into that as well. That's why I've forced a change in my life - I started making lists. I like to make lists, and I like to organize schedules that way. Every day, I make a "to do" list, starting from right when I wake up the next morning. I write out everything I think I need to get done that day, and I keep the list right by my bed, underneath my glasses, so I see it when I wake up.
Number one on my list: "Say hi to God." I write prayer in there in random times, so that when I refer back to my list, I'll remember to pray. A priest I talked to about this also suggested I wear a religous article on my hands - a bracelet or a ring - to remind me of God whenever I look at my hands. I now have a ring depicting the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, and I have a rosary ring. It has helped, a lot.

God either answers our prayers with yes, no, or wait. Don't give up in prayer if He answers no or wait because God knows what's best for your life. Cutting and lazyness are rebellion. Rebellion always has consequences!

cutting is not rebellion,it is used to release a pain inside.

I won't. perhaps your looking for the wrong thing insted of looking for god look for love secondly your not a bad person or a bad christan or a bad anything for that matter and lack of prayer or reading or doing homework or anything like that is going to make you bad shine in your own way each and every day live for joy and for love, just look around, you'll find it (maybe in Kessia)

cutting is not rebellion,it is used to release a pain inside.I agree. From experience. From four years of experience. And from a friend who has tried to hang herself, drug herself to death, and cut herself to death [twice]. Cutting is..just..it's..you just... I don't... the blood...I can't..well. Anyways. There's...I don't. It's wrong. I don't see anyting in the bible that says you can't, but theres something abuot keeping the temple of God [you] in good repair or whatever, and cutting doesn't do that...I don't remember.. I just... this is really hard to talk about for me.. sorry .If you need to talk. Ever. I'm here. PM me.

I'd say try to get your prayer and Bible reading back up, and talk to your parents or your pastor or someone like that. Also, do you know why you're cutting yourself? If you know the specific reason for it, that will help you tackle the problem.
