okay first of all, no one knows what a cutting is until they're experienced it. its a way to release stress. you can pretty much refer to it as "the only pain you can control" cutters don't like to made of.
someone might say,
"oh we made of you because we figured you'd stop"
thats a lie.
how the fuck do you even think that?
i dont know.
but seriously,
"emo people" are just like everyone else.
so don't judge them.
even the popular people can be cutters,
they seem so happy on the outside,
but on the inside they could be depressed.
so if you're one to judge shut the fuck up.

Someone who self harms (a 'cutter'), by cutting themselves with a sharp object. They do this as a means of being able to cope with their lives, because they are unhappy and depressed. It makes me so angry about how cutters are so often put into stereotypes such as 'emo', and when people who need help are simply labeled (should other people find out) as 'attention seeking'. It is a really serious issue and the person in question needs to be helped before their situation gets worse.
This can be hard as the feeling of being able to cope and regaining control is somewhat 'addictive', but it can be done. Believe me.
People who do self harm for attention, however, i have no sympathy for whatsoever, because doing things like flaunting cuts on your arms at school, etc, is so insensitive to people who self harm for genuine reasons. And that could be anybody, from any walk of life.

Personal experience:
Parents constantly fighting (though divorced)
Suicidal parent
Bad experiences with parents' partners
Trying hard, yet constantly failing
Hating school
Being worried sick about my best mate
Being alone
and dwelling on it too much
is what drove me to be a cutter.
I stopped by:
Talking to someone i loved and trusted
Reducing the amount of work i had to do
Being determined to get better

Apparently, according to the sterotype a cutter is someone who cuts, is emo, listens to emo music, apparently dresses emo and dresses all in black.
Actual definition, someone who self inflicts injury on their body by way of cutting, burning. These people typically need some form of psychological help and are usually stereotyped and made to feel even worse. Cutting is a cry for help for some and a way of felling for others. A cutter typically hides their habit and can be spotted through many signs. They can be quiet, they usually wear long sleeved or long legged clothing to cover the scars,even if its 104 degress outside. If you or someone you know is cutting,please seek help!

My prom dated assualted me in bed. A guy at a party sexully assaulted me. One of the guys I knew from work made me jerk him off, and a guy from school molested me while watching a movie. I am constantly in the state of feeling worthless because I have been led to believe that by others. I hate my body and my actions. I am a cutter, I cut.

A person who intentionally harms his or her self.
This term is not limited to those who cut themselves, but is also often used to sum up any self-mutilator. Many cutters use various other forms of self-mutilation, such as burning themselves, stabbing themselves with needles, biting, etc...
In GENERAL, but not all inclusively, cutters tend to be female, and teenage to young adult. It is common for a cutter to have been molested as a child, or to be dealing with other sexual inner-torment, but this is definitely not always the case. Any sort of torment can inspire one to cut.
Some cutters cut to focus the emotional pain to the physical, some for the adrenaline rush, and some do it just to feel. Some people become emotionally numb to reality and use cutting as a way to reconnect.
Some cutters bleed, some don't. Some cutters HAVE TO bleed. Some cutters get to the point where cutting in itself is not enough, but they must see the blood, must feel it pouring out.
Cutting does not mean a person is suicidal, but it is common to use cutting as an ALTERNATIVE to suicide. A cutter might be tempted to commit suicide, and usually has issues with depression, but maybe realizes suicide is not a good option. But they have to do SOMETHING; so they cut.
But sadly, oftentimes cutting loses its thrill, and suicide is the only step left. Or the cutting gets deeper-- more blood, more cuts, more pain...
If you think you know somebody is a cutter, don't judge them. And even above that, DON'T ASK QUESTIONS about it. They're ashamed---

I used to cut. When I did it, or rather, WHILE I was doing it, it was everything I needed. Such a relief-- but then when I'd wake up the next morning, I'd see my arms, all scabbed and scarred, and think, "What have I DONE to myself?!" I tried to hide it. The winter was easy, wearing long sleaves every day, but then people began to notice...
Cutting is, I'd say always, NEVER for attention. On the contrary... It's often a habit for someone who just needs something to redirect their OWN attention.

One who slashes or scratches parts of there body (typically arms, or inner thighs) usually due to depression, self hatred, or in the worst case, an image. It is a serious problem, and it angers me to see people doing it because they think its cool or want to have some emo image. They need better ways to get attention, and are making it difficult to see the difference between a person with problems, or an attention seeker. People get picked on and bullied and called names, because of those attention seeking twats who think they're cool, because nobody can tell if a person is actually depressed or putting on an act. THANKS A LOT EMO POSERS! A common thing someone does when they want to get noticed, is they dont cover it up, or force it in peoples faces. If you see one of these people, tell them to get a life and stop fucking around. If someone does put a genuine effort in to cover cuts up, they probably have a real problem, and shouldn't be picked on.
And for fuck sake, PLEASE resist from becoming and emo poser, JUST BE YOURSELF!
