\"Self-mutilation<\/p>\n

“Other times, I look at my scars and see something else: a girl who was trying to cope with something horrible that she should never have had to live through at all. My scars show pain and suffering, but they also show my will to survive. They’re part of my history that’ll always be there.”

“We need to start treating ourselves how we deserve to be treated, even if you feel that no one else does. Prove to the world you ARE worth something by treating yourself with the utmost respect and hope that other people will follow your example. And even if they don’t, at least one person in the world is treating you well: YOU.”
\nCarrie Hope Fletcher<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nKahlil Gibran<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“My scars remind me that I did indeed survive my deepest wounds. That in itself is an accomplishment. And they bring to mind something else, too. They remind me that the damage life has inflicted on me has, in many places, left me stronger and more resilient. What hurt me in the past has actually made me better equipped to face the present.”
\nSteve Goodier<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

9.<\/h4>\n

“Never feel this bad again. Never come back to this place, where only a knife will do. Live a gentle and kind life. Don’t do things that make you want to hurt yourself. Whatever you do, every day, remember this – then steer away from here.”

“We all have scars; both inside and out. Use your experience to support those who are going down the same road of destruction you once went down. Know that your past is worth more than the pain you once carried, because it can now be used to comfort and give strength to another soul who is suffering. Cherish your trials and tribulations as gifts; embrace these opportunities to share the grace you have been given.”
\nKatie Maslin<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

15.<\/h4>\n

“Being cut off from our own natural self-compassion is one of the greatest impairments we can suffer. Along with our ability to feel our own pain go our best hopes for healing, dignity, and love. What seems nonadaptive and self-harming in the present was, at some point in our lives, an adaptation to help us endure what we then had to go through. If people are addicted to self-soothing behaviors, it’s only because in their formative years they did not receive the soothing they needed. Such understanding helps delete toxic self-judgment on the past and supports responsibility for the now. Hence the need for compassionate self-inquiry.”
\nGabor Mat\u00e9<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

16.<\/h4>\n

“Self-harm is an addiction and it’s serious whether it’s 5 cuts or 100. I myself have dealt with self-harm. I was young and alone and got beat up on all the time, and I cut to ease the pain.”
\nVic Fuentes<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

17.<\/h4>\n

“Remember, it is not enough to be hit or insulted to be harmed, you must believe that you are being harmed. If someone succeeds in provoking you, realize that your mind is complicit in the provocation. Which is why it is essential that we do not respond impulsively to impressions; take a moment before reacting, and you will find it easier to maintain control.”
\nEpictetus<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

18.<\/h4>\n

“I will no longer mutilate and destroy myself in order to find a secret behind the ruins.”
\nHermann Hesse<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nHenry Rollins<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

20.<\/h4>\n

“As we begin to see that people who self-harm can be found in nearly every neighborhood, school, college, house of worship, or school group, we must become better informed so that we can better understand their language of pain and help them find a way out of their suffering.”
\nMarilee Strong<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nKemi Sogunle<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

23.<\/h4>\n

“Somehow however just knowing that I could fully expect unhappiness to return \u2013 if not predictably then nevertheless reliably \u2013 was strangely liberating. The point was that even chaos had a structure a beginning and eventually an end. It was possible to live through it. I\u2019d been doing as much for twenty years.”
\nCaroline Kettlewell<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

24.<\/h4>\n

“To overcome difficulties is to experience the full delight of existence.”
\nArthur Schopenhauer<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

25.<\/h4>\n

“But the problem with battling yourself is that even if you win, you lose. At some point \u2013 scarred and exhausted \u2013 you either accept that you must become a woman \u2013 that you are a woman \u2013 or you die. This is the brutal, root truth of adolescence \u2013 that it is often a long, painful campaign of attrition. Those self-harming girls, with the latticework of razor cuts on their arms and thighs, are just reminding themselves that their body is a battlefield.”
\nCaitlin Moran<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

26.<\/h4>\n

“Having a strong urge is like having a child throw a temper tantrum inside you, screaming “Hurt yourself!” But if you repeatedly ignore the urge’s request and don’t harm yourself, your brain will learn that urges don’t work, just as a child learns that throwing a tantrum won’t work.”
\nKim L. Gratz<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

27.<\/h4>\n

\nAnthon St. Maarten<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

28.<\/h4>\n

\nAlice Jamieson<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

29.<\/h4>\n

“Self-destructiveness may be a primary form of communication for those who do not yet have ways to tame their excruciating inner conflicts and feelings and who cannot yet turn to others for support.”
\nJames A. Chu<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

30.<\/h4>\n

“I used self-injury as a coping mechanism to help me overcome the emotional stress that I was incapable of dealing with in any other way. Self-injury was a means of escape, a way to relieve the numbness, and an expression of the pain within me. Something that the police wouldn\u2019t care about.”
\nStephen Richards<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

31.<\/h4>\n

“Trying to destroy yourself gives a pretty clear message and it’s not one I think you’d like. Sounds a bit like, “I’m too self-centered to be constructive, so I have to open a vein.”
\nThomm Quackenbush<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

32.<\/h4>\n

“He kisses me, and I can forget pain, forget the urges I still have to cut for the pain that erases the emotions.”
\nJasinda Wilder<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

33.<\/h4>\n

“Self-injury is a sign of distress not madness.”
\nCorey Anderson<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

34.<\/h4>\n

“This might surprise you, but one of the best ways to manage your emotions is simply to experience that emotion and let it run its course.”
\nKim L. Gratz<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

35.<\/h4>\n

\nScott Dye<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

36.<\/h4>\n

“Those who don’t know how to suffer are the worst off. There are times when the only correct thing we can do is to bear out troubles until a better day.”
\nDeng Ming-Dao<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

37.<\/h4>\n

“I am not “cured” \u2013 I know I never will be. I will always crave that pain to keep me centered. I will always be just a little astounded when I get through a crisis without putting a blade to my flesh.”
\nJ. Kenner<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

38.<\/h4>\n

“Denial can be a most useful, temporary shield. Unfortunately, such flimsy armor will not last a lifetime. It is best to face your past, and do so quickly, before your past returns to face you.”
\nAndr\u00e9 Chevalier<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

39.<\/h4>\n

“In a futile attempt to erase our past, we deprive the community of our healing gift. If we conceal our wounds out of fear and shame, our inner darkness can neither be illuminated nor become a light for others.”

40.<\/h4>\n

“Your scars are battle wounds, but you don’t see them that way. Yet.”
\nTammara Webber<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

41.<\/h4>\n

“You might imagine that a person would resort to self-mutilation only under extremes of duress, but once I’d crossed that line the first time, taken that fateful step off the precipice, then almost any reason was a good enough reason, almost any provocation was provocation enough. Cutting was my all-purpose solution.”
\nCaroline Kettlewell<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

42.<\/h4>\n

“You don’t need another human being to make your life complete, but let’s be honest. Having your wounds kissed by someone who doesn’t see them as disasters in your soul, but cracks to put their love into, is the most calming thing in this World.”
\nEmery Allen<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

43.<\/h4>\n

“If someone can prove me wrong and show me my mistake in any thought or action, I shall gladly change. I seek the truth, which never harmed anyone: the harm is to persist in one’s own self-deception and ignorance.”
\nMarcus Aurelius<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

44.<\/h4>\n

“You are not created to stifle and suppress your emotions… taming and training what you do not understand. You just have to be courageous enough to face the unknowns, meet the wild you might not understand, and let each teach you a thing or two about love.”
\nJackie Viramontez<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

45.<\/h4>\n

“Every lineament of the girl’s wasted body is a testament to her inner turmoil. Willow can only imagine what kind of pain she must be in to destroy herself that way. She knows there’s something ironic in her compassion for the other girl, but she can’t help feeling that this utter mortification of the flesh is far worse than anything that she herself has done.”
\nJulia Hoban<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

48.<\/h4>\n

“One of the things that strikes me most though is how some people don’t realize they’re self-harming. The phrase ‘self-harm’ brings up thoughts of ‘cutting’, but that’s only a small portion of it. When you drink excessively to drown your sorrows to the point you throw up and can’t see straight and\/or, like a girl at my school, ended up being driven to hospital to have her stomach pumped, you’ve brought harm to yourself.”
\nCarrie Hope Fletcher<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

49.<\/h4>\n

“When clients self-harm, for example, these days, we understand their actions to be instinctive, rather than thought out\u2014an effort to regulate or relieve, rather than punish.”

\nKilroy J. Oldster<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

52.<\/h4>\n

“If you take drugs to feel numb and it becomes an addiction that you can’t break, you’ve self-harmed. When you starve yourself or binge eat to fit the latest fashions, you’re pushing your body further than it can go.”
\nCarrie Hope Fletcher<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

53.<\/h4>\n

“You reach a milestone in such illnesses when denial lifts and you realize that the things you do are truly damaging both to yourself and to others. By then, however, you learn to not care and you embrace the notion that this method of self-harming is both deserved and satisfying.”
\nLeanne Waters<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

54.<\/h4>\n

“Many times we are our worst enemy. If we could learn to conquer ourselves, then we will have a much easier time overcoming the obstacles that are in front of us.”

\nGary Rohrmayer<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

58.<\/h4>\n

“When people self-harm themselves its not always because they want people to notice them, or because they weren’t taught better. They sometimes have all the attention a person could want and they have been taught better. People just don’t realize that even within all that. Something terrible could be happening in a person’s life, which may lead them to cutting. Don’t judge.”
\nTriss<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

59.<\/h4>\n

“We all bear scars,… Mine just happen to be more visible than most.”
\nSarah J. Maas<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

60.<\/h4>\n

\nI cried because you wouldn’t let me speak.
\nI spoke because you wouldn’t let me shine.
\nI shone because I thought you loved me…”
\nEmilie Autumn<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

61.<\/h4>\n

“You don’t feel like you’re hurting yourself when you’re cutting. You feel like this is the only way to take care of yourself.”
\nMarilee Strong<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

62.<\/h4>\n

\nAlysha Speer<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

63.<\/h4>\n

\nCaroline Kettlewell<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

67.<\/h4>\n

\nGeorge R.R. Martin<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

69.<\/h4>\n

\nTimothy Ferriss<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

70.<\/h4>\n

\nE.A. Bucchianeri<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

74.<\/h4>\n

“Self-harm is not a grab for attention. It doesn\u2019t mean you are suicidal. It means you are struggling to get out of a very dangerous mess in your mind and heart and this is your coping mechanism. It means that you occupy a small space in the very real and very large canyon of people who suffer from depression or mental illness.”
\nKathleen Glasgow<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nBarbara Brown Taylor<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

79.<\/h4>\n

“No one sees your strength, do they? No one sees the silent battle you fight against your overprotective mind that\u2019s trying to keep you safe from harm by keeping you safe from risk, safe from connection, safe from honesty. Maybe others don\u2019t see, but you see it sometimes, don\u2019t you? In the mirror, in those eyes, begging for someone to notice. You have noticed. It is real. You are strong. You are fighting for something incredible. Don\u2019t let anyone convince you otherwise\u2014especially not your thoughts.”
