The blood count
is rising. Now 4 (or is it 5?) people
that I know personally have wet themselves with a blade. Everytime I think
about it or read about it I think of the song Hurt. "I
hurt myself today... to see if I still feel... I focus on the pain... the
only thing that's real..."
But now, how
do I know how many of my friends do it? Probably more than
just 3 or 4. But there are those few that have written about it, in one
place or another. It seems like no one really wants to talk about
it, but they don't want to keep it a total secret either. What are you
supposed to do when someone you care about hurts themselves on purpose
by slicing themselves open? Or burning themselves? I should have been able
to come up with something the first time...but I didn't. That person was
very important to me, and I didn't do anything to try to stop it. Should
I have? maybe. but what right do I have to tell someone that what they
are choosing to do to themselves is wrong and they would
be better off intact?
I know that
there are many different reasons why people do this. I don't know if there's
anything I can say that would convince a person to stop, and never do it
again. I don't know why I'm not at least trying to do something
about it right now...maybe I'm just not ready.
You don't deserve it. You don't deserve it. |
