Get help or, well...get help. There is no way on Earth that it is normal to practice self-mutilation!  |

Well hurting yourself is normal for some, not all. It's just one of the coping mechanisms that some use. You shouldn't feel ashamed for who you are. You may regret it later. Talk to someone about how you feel. It's better than hurting yourself, it's less painful too. I wish you the best of luck--Evilgeminitwin23  |

Its really sad that you feel that way about yourself and even worse that you hurt yourself. Why the low self confidence??? You need to get help. If you wanna talk feel free to message me.  |

it is normal to feel self-conscious about your appearance-- you are a teenager. I think that most of us go through a stage of feeling ugly and awkward in our adolescence. Eventually, you will grow into your skin and feel more comfortable with yourself. It is not normal to want to hurt yourself. You should talk to a counselor about this-- try the counseling office at school.  |

I used to do the same thing when I was a teenager. Its a hard age to be. I always felt like I wasn't good enough. But I was wrong and you are too. You are as good as anybody else. *Big Hugs*  |

Well..I can speak from experience, that getting punched doesn't make anything look better. If your mom isn't going to listen then find someone that will. Call a friend or a family member. You can talk to a counsiler at school. There are also hotlines that you can call for free.  |

No, hun... it is not normal. The best person you could go to, to talk about this is the school counselor. Do your parents know that you are hurting yourself? You are NOT stupid! Hurting yourself is a form of release for the pain you are feeling when you think negative things about yourself. I bet you are the lovliest person on your block!! 'You' just can't see it. Good Luck!! Love and Hugs! Zeeboette  |

A couple yrs ago i kinda went through a small depression and was embarrased about how i looked. I thought my freckles were really ugly and hated my skin color. Dont even get me started on my hair. It was hard for me to get over myself but somehow i did and im a much better person and like how i look. I really am amazed i felt that way. I never did do any self mutilation although i almost came to that point (i feel really stupid that i did now). i think its normal to go through feeling really ugly and getting depresssed over it, but if i were you i would get help. Its not normal to be in as deep as you are. If you ever want to talk you can message me! *hugs and good luck*  |

I can't understand why you would ever hate yourself so much and you have my sympathy. I think you need to see a doctor so that you can get some help in dealing with your feelings. Depression is a terrible thing and it's sad that you're so affected by it at this time. You may want to ask about something like Prozac. I wish you the best and hope that you're feeling better soon. Take care and have a happy Thanksgiving.  |

No, no no. Look, it doesn't matter how you look on the outside. Everyone has a flaw. No one's perfect. It's not what's on the outside that counts, it's what's on the inside. That's what God sees. We are all the same in his eyes. Don't beat yourself up, you're beautiful, and whoever can't see that, then they're obviously the ugly ones.  |

I am sure there is NOTHING wrong with the way you look! I go through those days where I, too, find myself to be so hideous, I'd like to get plastic surgery, but then I realize that I am who I am and there's nothing I can do to change it. You just have to learn to accept the way you look. And no, self-mutilation won't help. I think you need to talk to someone.  |
