Cutting Quote by Anonymous
“Here's how to self harm: 1. pick up what ever you're gonna use. 2. Evaluate. Explain to yourself why you want to do it. Why you feel the way you do and why you want to keep hurting yourself. 3. Put down whatever you were about to use or take. And remember that you're better than that. Remember that things just happen and it's not your fault. Remember how beautiful you are. Remember why you're alive. Remember that people love and care about you. A lot. 4. Don't ever think those thoughts again. Leave them in the past. Remember how good if a person you are and remember how much you're worth it and never forget that things will get better.”
