Self harm quotes?

[Hannah Montana]

I like this one that I got from watching Grey's Anantomy
"Why do I hit myself with a hammer? Because it feels so good when I stop"
Its not actually a SI quote but I think that it aptly captures how I personally feel about SI. xxx

[devoured_elysium]

"its our struggles that define us and the hardships we endure, your spirit can't be broken now, you've come to fat" - hatebreed - your never alone

"some scars are meant to be worn with pride, everyday is knowledge to use in life, a lesson lived is a lesson learned" - hatebreed - a lesson lived is a lesson learned

cant think of any others
hope these ok

[~Jo~]

"how will you know im hurting, if you cannot see my pain, to wear it on my body tells what words cannot explain"

'17 and I'm all messed up inside, I cut myself just to feel alive' Beth Hart Leave The Light On'

'...occasionally I wished I could walk through a picture window and have the sharp, broken shards slash me to ribbons so I would finally look like I felt.' Elizabeth Wurtzel Prozac Nation

'i hurt myself today, to see if I still feel' NIN Hurt

'Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame' Sia

[Not-Sane]

"They say I have all these options: I can call people, I can talk to people. I know I have options, but they are not even on the same level as cutting. If they were I wouldn't have to go to such extreme!"

"My demons have reappeared"

"There is no hazy line. If I'm suicidal I want to die, I have lost hope. When I'm self-injuring, I want to relieve the emotional pain and keep on living. Suicide is a permanent exit. Slef-injury gets me through the moment."

"Bleeding becomes tangible ebidence that I do exist somewhere in thiw world."

"I can't cry tears, bleeding is just a different form of crying"

Let me know if you want others...

[Iphy]

Well...the more the better! :P

[Samz]

'some people sail through their troubles, and some have to live with the scars.'
'maybe then i'll fade away and not have to face the facts, it's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.'
'not all scars show, not all wounds heal. sometimes you can't see the pain, that i feel'
'you make it sound so easy to be alive'
'i try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies. i try to laugh about it, hide the tears in my eyes.'

[madamoiselle]

"Everything will be fine in the end. If it's not fine, it's not the end"

[Not-Sane]

"Ultimatley, it celebrates not death but rather the will to live. It chronicles the struggle of humankind to maintain equilibrium. Therefore, dear reader, empathize if you can with the poor souls who are vitimes of self-mutilation, but save your grieving for the dead."

"She pays such a terrible price for her sins and at last the outside matches the in...justice."

"This pain I can't see it but I can feel it. It haunts me. When I cut myself I can see where the pain is coming from and watch it heal. And I can easily care for it. This pain doesn't have a specific place. It creeps around and moves into strange places."

"Scars are stories, history written on the body."

"You have so much pain inside you that you try and hurt yourself on the outside because you want help"

"Fine arts and cutting are the only things that relieve the tremendos temsion in this thing called life."

We all feel good when a wound heals, but cutters need that feeling. It gives them the illusion that they are healing their own skin and psyche can hold themselves."

[Not-Sane]

By the way most of my quotes are from the book "A Bright Red Scream"

[Not-Sane]

"I hope that I can save myself.
No one knows how they can help.
If only I could understand,
How the metal finds my hand.
Then maybe I could find a way,
A way to make it go away."

"I hate the look of disappointments whenever you see new cuts."

"Emotions overcome me; I cut but I don't feel the pain. The storm is of my life, and the blood is the rain."

"...She gazes into the darkness of her room with the curtains pulled tightly shut, and the room turns black as night with her head pounding and her wrists aching, she slowly reaches for the phone, but hears them whispering. 'Don't be a burden, let them sleep.' 'It's not their problem the demons you keep.' She wants to cry but the tears are frozen inside..."

[Pastel Epiphanies]

"Another drama by the kitchen sink tonight,
You said you'd cut yourself whilst washing up the knives,
Another week off school won't do you any good,
And I know how it feels to be your age. "
-Once and Never Again by the Long Blondes

not exactly SI but...
"Tears to fill a sea to drown a beacon
To start anew all over, remove those scars from your arms
To start anew all over more enlightened

I know, my love, this is not the only story you can tell
This pain won't last for ever, this pain won't last for ever"
-Two More Years by Bloc Party

[saffron-reynolds]

Not strictly SI related but I love these lyrics:

"Time heals, but I'm forever broken" muzzle, the smahing pumpkins

"Waking up is harder when you wanna die" elizabeth on the bathroom floor, eels

[[pretty on the inside]]

Slipknot ~ Everything Ends:
"Shallow skin, I can paint with pain
I mark the trails on my arms with your disdain
Everyday its the same - I love, you hate
But I guess I dont care any more...
Fix my problems with the blade
While my eyes turn from blue to gray
God, the worst thing happened to me today
But I guess I dont care anymore..."

Some i found somewhere:

Some times in stead of cutting an X on my wrist I make a cross so that the Lord can forgive me for destroying my body, and I also pray that the pain stops as the blood slowly drips onto my sheets.

She cuts herself. Never too deep, never enough to die. But enough to feel the pain. Enough to feel the scream inside.

Let the blood run down your arms then try and tell me everything's okay.
This is what i feel like with my friends when they tell me i am ok.


I have to cut because it's the only way I can smile.

I cut to prove to you that you are not the only one that can hurt me.

[secret scars]

i see the red but i feel no pain, its like i am floting floting away, and it seems i have become my own prey

"When I’'m done, after this big huge buildup, then there’s an overwhelming feeling of calmness, an overwhelming sense of peace."
Something I found on the internet, hope it helps you (: <3

I think that is in reference to her eating disorder. Though now I say this, an eating disorder is sometimes considered a form of self-harm.

'The scars will last forever, but nothing compares to the pain that put them there'

TRIGGERING


Don't hold strong opinions about things you don't understand.

I bleed for you that's why I cut those simple scars are just deep thoughts.

That's the problem with cutting. Once you start, you can't stop. It's addicting, cutting is my drug. It serves its purpose perfectly. Once I cut, I forget about everything that has been wrong. All that is left is my concentration on my cut. I forget about everything but the pain. Pain has become my world. --- ConcretAngel

How will you know I am hurting, If you cannot see my pain? To wear it on my body Tells what words cannot explain.

That was when I cut my arms with a razor blade as a means of creative expression. I only did it lightly, just grazing the skin, to see the way the blood would bleed out, to make myself look tougher. Not like some of those kids who keep going deeper and deeper, wondering what they look like down to the bone, because it's a world that's so close and yet so far and so dangerous and so much their own. The only world that is their own.

The razor moves along her wrist like a river, so peacefully, as that red water starts to escape, its hard to make it stop.

Every word, another scar, Some people say I cut for attention, Attention is the last thing I want, I tell them I've got my reasons, But what they don't know is, They are the reason I cut, I walk the halls and people talk, Their harsh words cut in deep, Don't they know what they're doing, Every word they say is another scar on my wrist.

As she's breaking down she grabs her razor and she whispers... this time I'm not okay...

I never knew that one singe blade could mess up my life...

Cutting doesn't solve anything or take the pain away, but for those few seconds everything is Okay...

Some times in stead of cutting an X on my wrist I make a cross so that the Lord can forgive me for destroying my body, and I also pray that the pain stops as the blood slowly drips onto my sheets.

Crimson tears run down my arm, All the pain and all the harm. My only way to let it out, I wanna scream, I wanna shout. But I don’t make a sound, I keep it inside. I wanna break out, but instead I hide. I sit in my room, and hide in my shell, The life that I’m living, my own private hell. The crimson tears, down my arm they run. I look down at my arm, what have I done? --- Bleedinginside

Let the blood run down your arms then try and tell me everything's okay.

I take the blade and run it gently against my skin, it cuts in deeper and deeper, the blood bursts out and slowly runs down my arm then it stops and the pain goes away.
