Is the act of inflicting wounds to yourself by using a sharp object like a razor blade, small or large knife and cutting places like your arms legs thighs and wrists. Although most people think that cutting has to do with just one group of kids it doesnt it can be with any type of kid like not all emos cut some jocks may cut even cheerleaders even people who you think have a perfect life most dont just because they dont show the world how their life really is and they put on a fake persona and try to act like everything is fine doesnt men that it is. You really never know whats going on with a person unless you are them even the prettiest girl is insecure. Just because they seem like they have a perfect lifge on hhte outside you never know what can be going on in the inside the could be being abused verbally or physically and once you start it becomes an addiction and is hard to stop even if you manage to stop you still have times in your life where you want to go back to it I use to cut because of stress and depression because i had to grow up at the age of 10 and now i dont have a normal teenage life I am in love with a 26 year old and im only 16 with everything that ive put myself through i don't relate to any of my friends and cant trust them with anything. Cutting can lead to suicide or other things. Just remember it doesn't affect just you it affects everyone around especially those who care about you

Cutting has been described to me by my therapist as a natural drug in that it released endorphins to the brain immediately following the cutting. However, in the long run, cutting can lead to more severe depression and also can cause permanent physical damage. Cutting sometimes is accompanied by head banging, burning, or other self-destructive behaviors.
Despite some of the close minded definitions, cutting is not done only by emo kids. Although some emo kids do cut, most of the characteristics of cutters are the same as those with eating disorders. Cutters tend to be perfectionists, and often are white, middle class teenage girls, although not all cutters come from this background.
Cutting often is a result of depression, and some view it as a way to release emotional pain when it feels like you would explode otherwise. Although many people think that those with depression have experienced huge tramas in their lives, this is not necessarily the case. Depression is a disease, just like diabetes is a disease. It can strike anyone, regardless of their gender, class, or social status. I personally am attending an ivyleague college next year, was captain of my soccer team in high school, could be considered among the popular kids at my school, and have an extremely loving family. I still have the scars from my cutting, which I stopped doing 2 months ago. Although i was lucky enough to be able to stop, other people such as my older sister, became addicted. Cutting is not something to mess around with. However ,it is naive to dismiss cutting as simply a way to get attention. It is also naive to scorn those who seem to have perfect lives as being stupid for cutting. People do not choose to be depressed.
"how can you be so depressed? You're so beautiful and so good at everything." - me crying to my to my sister in an ambulance after one of her major cutting episodes
"that doesnt matter tho. being pretty doesn't change wut mood i'm in," - my sister

Cutting is something that many people argue about, and don't really know the meaning. Cutting has been a part of my life for quite some time now, but it's not even me who's doing it. If people would've had to live the way i am for about a week, maybe they would understand a bit better. Cutting is a sign of depression. Depression does not always happen because of a serious event, or having a horrible lifestyle, because it's a disease. It's an illness. Cutting releases endorphins into the brain right after the cutting is done. It is known today as quite the fad, and is usually assumed to be done by "emo" kids. That's not true. Depression can hit any one, any gender, any age, and can also include eating disorders, and other self-harming things. Just imagine being in grade 7, and all the sudden that someone close to yous' sleeve rolls up. what you see will never leave your memory. Imagine seeing them in a hospital bed. Tubes and everything. Being force-fed, and having to LIVE there. Cutting is a serious problem, and though people abuse it for attention, don't label people and riducule them because of depression. If i had cancer would you come make fun of me?
there isn't really an example that i'm willing to write about cutting, so just take the time and think about it.

To cut your wrist over the internet or show you have cut yourself, not literally, but a situation where someone would cut themselves.

Joe: No, just found out I got to work that night. /cut
Bob: I feel your pain.

pittsburgh slang for an 1/8 (3.5 grams) of weed. originates from a slice, or cut, of pizza from a small pizza, which has 8 slices. hence, 1 cut is 1/8 of a pizza so a cut of weed is 1/8 of an ounce.
