if you are going to cut your hair you can't feel the pain why?

The nerves are in the skin - so you only feel it when it's pulled out.\n\nThe hair itself is an excretion of dead cells which don't have any nerves in them.\n\nSimilarly for nails.

Och!\nWell done you, \nIt will hurt trim the hair first! But you are a big strong man with a big strong will and you will cope fine.\nThe pain is on the bearable side.\nIt will probably itch for a couple of days when the hair starts to grow back, it will probably grow at differant rates so dont panic and think your gona have bold patches.\nas for how long it will take to grow back, everybody is differant but on average I would say 6-8 weeks and you will have a decent ammount back.

It's alot more than just cutting yourself. Many people do it because you need to feel, and they become emotionally numb. Self Injury, SI, is common believe it or not, many people do not advertise the scars or use medicine to help heal the wound to cover it up. All of my scars can easily be covered by shorts and a tee shirt. The worst thing you can do is be negative to the person. It sometimes is the only thing that can make you feel alive! I do not agree it is about the pain, most of the time you do not feel pain, it is more about the blood. People who SI usually do it more than once, they dont die the first time. A common misconception is that is is a call out similar to suicide. SI does not mean the person is suicidal! SI is different for many people, men and women both SI. If you are interested in more information I have included a website below that should help. The website was written by SI's for SI's and their families and friends. I'll put this question on my watch list if you have anymore questions please ask.

They say to take a Mortin before you are waxed.\nIt hurts. But the more times you have it done the more you will adjust to the pain. It will get less. \nAnd not having to shave it great.

I know exactly what you mean, when you have that feeling, you just want someone to sit and listen to you, and not judge you. Personally, I think it depends on the person you talk to, you need someone close to you, who knows a bit of what your going through, but who also knows that you aren't out just to get attention (this is most cutters main worry- and often this stops them from talking to people.) Explain your reasons for self harming and tell them that your not aking for their help- you can get this from professionals. You just need someone to listen and actually HEAR what your saying.

Self-mutilation is usually not the problem itself, but a symptom of the problem. Speaking from personal experience, alot of "cutters" feel that the cutting is a release for the pain and frustration that they feel inside. I'm willing to bet that your friend is suffering from depression. This is not something that you can handle on your own. If you guys are minors, than you need to speak with her parents. They need to be aware of her problem so that they can seek professional help. She may be angry with you and feel betrayed at first, but she WILL realize one day that you did it because you care. She'll probably even be thankful! If, however, you're NOT minors, then you should gently tell her that you're concerned and think that she should seek help. Be sure to tell her that she's not crazy, and let her know that damn near everyone needs a little help sometimes. No matter what, let her know that you love her and will always be there for her.\n\nI hope this helps...good luck to you both...

dude i have the same problem and share your pain. i use to cut myself, but then it seemed so stupid so please dont do that.what really works for me is talking about my problems with my mom,sister,cousin or a really trustful friend, because they dont judge me based on what i say,do or feel.they will try to help you out as much as they can and understand what youre going through and give you advice. you dont need therapy to figure out whats wrong and waste all that $$ when you can talk to someone at home for free :)\nmusic=escape from reality

Trimming with scissors as mentioned before is not painful, but if you find a better way let me know. Shaving, waxing, etc. doesn't always feel the most pleasant.

Well the pain cant just be from talking about pain sex. The pain can be from mid point of your period your 18 so your body is about sone growing and is telling you that its almost done I had the same problem as well. I now only feel that way mid way between periods. That is all I can think of about this subject.

I don't think anyone can answer that for you, you need to decide that for yourself, after all your the one gonna have to live with it.\n\n     But I wanted to let you know that if you do decide to cut it, there is a great org. out there that prevides wigs of kids how have cancer and have lost their hair to kimo. \n\n     Ask your hairdresser if you do decide to cut, I believe it's called "Locks of love". I would be a nice gift, don't you think?

You can go to a doc.  and have it either frozen off or burned off.  In either case, that will hurt like hell at first, be uncomforatable for awhile, then feel better later.

Most ppl cut to redirect their attention to a pain that is perceived as less than what is really troubling them.  #1 reason is that they have been abused (usually sexually).  Without proper therapy things will worsen!!

Cutting helps people deal with emotional pain.  When it is easier to deal with physical pain than emotional pain people cut.  It gives them a release they can't find anywhere else.  However it is not a healthy way to go about it at all!  There are many risks involved in cutting.  You could get an infection or accidentally hit an artery.  Either one could end up in death.  Just be careful and find someone to talk with that understands.  Like a friend, doctor, pastor, counselor.  Depending on your age you could even talk to a counselor at school.  I really do wish you luck and happiness.  I hope whatever is hurting you so much is resolved.  If you have the strength to cut you have the strength to talk to someone, you just need to realize it!

It may be torn muscle. That can come from overworking.\n\nIt may also be nerve impingement. If the pain is really sharp, burning kind of sensation, or you get any associated numbness or tingling, that points to inpingement.\n\nEither way, you can talk to your doctor or a massage therapist. They'll be able to do a hands on assessment and tell you whats goin on.

Well, push a needle through it... does that hurt? Now, imagine taking a razor blade to it and slicing it all off... does it hurt now?\n\nActually, if you get one done, the doc will numb it up pretty good. Then you get the ice and pain meds, and it ends up being annoying for a few days. It's much better than giving birth, of that I'm sure.

You might be suffering from muscle tension ya know.  If blood cannot steadily flow through the major vessels in your wrist, it'll cause problems mainly in similarity with those you have.  If it feels as if its more than just an acute type of pain, you might have a mild case of scar tissue. other than that, i don't know.
