Self harm

Alot of people confuse self harm with attention seeking or the populer mainstream fad wich is "emo". This is not the truth, alot of self harmers despise emo's due to the fact that their bullshit immitation self harming has completely biased people towards the subject( bear in mind I am talking about emo in a general sense, Im not denying that an emo can have real problems, Im simply pointing out that the vast majority dont). Emo's go around drawing attention to their pathetic attempts and claiming that they are truly missunderstood. Not only does anyone who genuinly self harms for relevant reasons get labelled attention seeking but they'r also labelled as emo's, wich greatly pisses off anyone who has any concept of what it really feals like to truly want to self mutilate due to any particular genuine reason. Self harm is not about getting attention or making a statement, self harm is about release, mainly of stress. This can actually be explained scientifically, the adrenalin triggered by shedding blood somehow eliminates the brain signals and hormones produced by stress, stress that could be caused by any number of things, every one of them real. Often when somebody is hurt emotionally, the survival technique of numbing out the feelings is employed, this ultimately stops the person from feeling hurt but also prevents them from feeling other emotions, much like shock. The mind is not used to this, and often people cut to prove to themselves that they can still feel emotion. Also in some cases it is impossible for a person to cry without cutting, as anybody knows crying is essential for the release of some emotions, not continual crying, but often if a person does not cry for long periods of time they will need some other release.Somebody who is unable to cry without cutting, they often cannot cry because they associate crying with showing weakness, time has tought that when you show people your weaknesses they often target and manipulate those weaknesses, therefore a person may only be able to cry in response to real physical pain, thus releaving their REAL emotional pain. Cutting can happen for a vast amount of reasons, the prejudice associated with it is not fair and only goes on to make matters worse, it is essential that people understand what they are looking at before they decide to judge.

The classic example of a real cutter is somebody who has been brought up without being tought how to release their emotions correctly, somebody who is victimised, and classically somebody who has no friends or family to talk to about their various problems or worries. However any one person can be a genuine self harmer, it only takes a few unfortunate circumstances, you'd be suprised at how messed up humans really are.

Self Report

The term originates from the game that became popular in 2020, "Among Us". When used outside of the game the term has been further extended to mean when someone says or does something that reveals something bad or sinister about themselves unintentionally. The political twitch streamer Hasanabi uses it frequently.

Matt Gaetz: The New York Times is running a story that I traveled with a 17 year old woman. This is verifiably false.

Hasan: He just said "17 year old woman". Kind of a self report.

---
Someone being Interviewed: Israel has killed 63 children this is horrible.

Hannity: Maybe Hamas shouldn't have shot missiles from hospitals and schools. If someone attacked the U.S., it would be all hands on deck.

Hasan: "Oh dude we would murder every baby in the region if an American city was harmed" is not an argument you can make for what the morally correct action to take is in this circumstance. You're only self reporting that you would do worse war crimes than what Israel is currently engaging in. That's psychopathic.

low self-esteem

self esteem is how u feel about urself. low self-esteem is when u dont like urself, or u feel bad about urself.
thats one reason ppl make fun of other ppl, b/c they have low self-esteem

many shy ppl can have low self-esteem; thus that can be a reason why they're so shy.
some ppl make fun of certain ppl and mess with them a lot, b/c they have low-self esteem..b/c they feel bad about themselves, or they have something they dont like about themselves, so they make fun of someone and when they get other ppl laughing they feel better about themselves, or they feel good that they got something out of that person.

self-defecating

A term that stupid people use accidentally when they really mean "self-deprecating" and clever people use on purpose to make poop jokes that stupid people wont get.

The big-time CEO used self-defecating humor to try and relax the crowd. He wanted them to see that he was just a regular guy. Unfortunately, he succeeded only in relaxing his own bowels. No amount of good press will clear that stink.
