It's only because everyone (my friends, parents, young children, complete strangers,ect..) want me to admit it. Truth is, I am emo. But I don't want everyone to always be like, "Look at that girl's scars on her arms, she's so EMO!" just because of my scars. Cutting doesn't make a person emo. The way I act and feel..The way I am makes me emo... So should I just stop running from the truth, and admit it? I know on the inside I am, but if I let everyone outisde know...I'm scared they'll treat me diferently.

I know it's weird and kinda paraniod and self-centered to think that the people will change just when I confess to being what I am..But I'm just scared of losing the few people I'm close to and love..

first of all strangers opinions dont matter.the family/friend thing though.like i said before somewhere else....they are supposed to like/love you no matter what.thats why theyre the special people in your life & not meaningless strangers.i think you should just tell them that your aware your emo but they shouldnt label you. just admit it & if they cant accept it then theyre not worth it.but dont change for anyone.be yourself.

Thanks, everyone. I told them that I was and they can't do anything about it. 3nodding But I'm the not kind that hides in a corner when I have a bad day. I smile and go on with my life until a future breakdown. That's not healthy, but I don't want to be consumed with my problems daily.

Don't Feel Bad, People started calling me emo because they saw my lyrics I was writing and I listen to emo bands. At first I was all opposed to it but then when ijust accepted it they kind of started to respect it. Just joke about it. Thats what worked for me.

Why is it that everyone relates slit wrists to emo? We're fans of a music genre, and we're a style. We aren't razor jockeys. Most of the people I know who cut are merely bookwormish, average looking kids with real problems at home, not every single kid with dark eyeliner. stare

I agree with you by saying that cutting doesn't make a person emo....
by the other hand i do think that you shoul accept whoyou are and how you are and how you feel that is very important all the time...
if your friends do love you then they have to accept you just the way you are...^.^

First off dont label yourself. If you say your emo then you have doubts. EMO DOES NOT = CUTTING YOURSELF. Ive never cut and im supposedly called an emo. Im not I just have depression issues. If someone calls you emo ignore them. If you react then that gives them another chance to label you. LABELS ARE LIFE. But you dont have to listen to them. And WTF is emoism?? When did being"Emo" become so popular and used so much. Gosh. Good luck. <3

i know how you feel im labeled emo ALL the time and i really cant do anything to stop it since its been going on practically my whole life middle school/high school life. [my life hasnt been too happy...] so i just learned to ignore it
labels arent right but their everywhere. if they call you that say "im not emo, im just _____" and say your name. cause thats who you are =D [i use it all the time ^_^]

you shouldn't confess to being a stereotype. admit to being yourself, that is the best thing to do. :3
