ok ive read the definitions and basically yall are saying cutting is a big issue, gues what it isn't. there are a lot less cutters out there than you think so unless you know what you r talking about dont write a definition.

a cutter is a person who gets a sort of high of cutting themselves they also use it as an anti-depressent. then their are people who try to be cutters and show off their
scars. those aren't real cutters thos are the people with a mental illness. cutters are just people who have found a way to blow off some steam like how people smoke or do drugs.

cutters can use many things to cut themself, glass, staples, knves, box cutters, creditcards etc.

An individual who self-mutilates by laceration, as described in other entries. Although there are exceedingly rare examples of legitimate cutters, a vast majority (Johnson and Williams 2005, et al.) are simply attention seekers who will inflict very minor injury on themselves in imitation of more serious self-mutilation (Ibid.). In recent years, as media coverage and general societal awareness increase, self-mutilation has become more common than in the past, due much in part to "copycat crimes" wherein people imitate the mutilatory actions they've observed. Although it can be signs of a serious mental illness, one must take caution before assuming that self-mutilation is in itself a signifier of mental disturbance.
Some mutilators (or cutters) have a serious mental illness; others simply don't.
