Self Harm – The Sharp Truth
This is a video i made about self harm / self injury, all pictures are of me, i’m not doing it for attention as i’m annomynous, this is to raise awareness and to let others know, they’re not alone.
I know it’s not great – It’s my first vid i’ve ever made.
I missed a few facts out, which i’m sorry for, but my inexperience got the better of me.
I’ve been unconciously self harming all my life, punching walls, scratching my hand etc, but i only started cutting when i was around 17, it has escalated terribly, the pictures included are the least vulgar i could find, 1 in 10 teenagers self harm actively, you most certainly know someone who has tryed self harm, if not does it regularily, it’s been made into a taboo subject, which it shouldn’t.
The brain is an organ. As are hearts, livers, kidneys. All of the above can fail without any reason. Why can’t a brain? People DON’T do it for attention, why would they hide it so dearly and make such excuses if they wanted everyone to know? The brain can fail to function correctly just like any other organ can, it’s not our fault, and it’s not a terrible subject, it’s the media that has raised a ignorant stereotypical view of it, with some hope these can be abolished later on in our lifetime, so others don’t have to suffer in silence.
Take care, if you view it please comment.

im not some dangerous pedofile man btw! just a 13 year old girl who shares your problems 
i used to self harm too. But i only did it a few times so i guess it was harder to stop that way. But sometimes when i get really sad its sooo tempting to get the razor and let my rage and sorrow bleed. but i managed to let it out in other ways. i hope you find the will to stop and if you want support you are welcome to write to me

my stepdaughter does self harming because she is stupid. Shes fat and dumb.
Everytime when I tell her shes fat and worthless she goes to her room. I am trying to get her kicked out so I showed my husband som syrringes and told him I found them in her room. She said she had cut herself, but he will not belive it. He think she is a junkie.I am planing to buy some drugs, put it in her room and call the police. Then she will finally get kicked out.
