what would you do if you got a deep cut and no one was around to help you?

probably clean it out with running water, use soap if available, if that is all you have.  Try to find a clean wrap, bandage or whatever you can find.\nGet yourself to a hospital.  If that is not possible, you hope you have a good immune system that will heal on it's own.

Go talk to someone now!  A parent, friend, family member, someone who cares for you.  Have someone else to help share your burden.  I am sorry for how you have been treated, and I DO understand, believe me.  But you must realize that such people are hurting themselves, and therefore they will hurt people.  \nYou seem like you have a pure and tender heart.  Don't take it so much to heart.  People need you!

I felt the same way for a long long time, and I still feel that way sometimes. People really are there for you though, you just don't see it. If you were to need them they would be there, they just don't know that you need them now. Talk to someone about it. Anyone you trust. Just ask them if you can talk to them alone and explain that you feel like no one cares. It can be a sign of something serious like depression so be careful and know when it's gone too far. People do care, and they're all over. You just don't realize it when they're not right there beside you.

You just did ask for help.  Now find someone, like a friend, family member, or a professional that can help you!

Go with your gut because nobody here would know everything you are going through

I'm not going to ask you how you got your cut, because, you've already told me.  Anyways, the nurse in me needs to tell you that you should seek medical attention, for a couple of reasons.  The cut could get seriously infected, and you need someone to talk to about why you feel the need to hurt yourself, or the fact that someone else hurt you.\n\nAs for the cut itself.  It is extremely important that it stay clean. The edges of the cut need to stay together in order to heal.  If there are no stitches there will be a scar.  The continuous blood suggests a large deep wound.  If the surrounding skin is turning pink or red, and is warm to the touch  you must get help as this is  called cellulitis and can lead to blood poisoning.  This is when the wound gets infected and the bacteria enters the skin, and then the bloodstream.  This can be fatal.\n\nA cut this size and this deep really isn't something to hiding.  Please try to get someone to help you get some medical attention.\n\nI know that you are probably scared, but I'm sure that there is someone that you can trust.  If you are afraid that the ER will ask too many questions, then go to an urgent care center.  Come up with a plausible story, or another name for that matter. But for heavens sake, get someone to sew up the wound so you can heal the wound.  Good luck and God speed!

I would consider taking her to a hospital before that happens.  They'll admit her if she is considered a threat to herself or others, and the cuts on her wrist would prove she is.  They can then get people to help her.  \n\nIf she does cut too deep, put pressure on the wound, and get her to the nearest ER immediately.

Yes you do need serious help! How can you slip your wrists????\nWe have all got problems in this life,....cutting ourselves dpesnt help us at ALL!!!!!\nFirst thing you should do is not go near you dads friend for  while and if he asks you anything just say that you didnt encourage her to do it ( which I guess is the truth..RIGHT?????)\nSecond you and your friend should stop 'CARVING' yourselves!!\nIf you have a prblem talk to your parents but if you're not the 'italktomyparents' type of person then talk to your friend!! (seeing as you both have a special friend connection ..COZ YOU CUT YOURSELVES TOGETHER!!!!!!). You could tell your friend your problems and she could tell you hers...be open and make sure the conversation between you two STAY between you two!.\nOh and one last thing.........I am a human being so I dont have the power to change people.........(if I could I would change soooooo many! ) so I cant change you if cutting yourself helps you live then do it...BUT NO TO DEEP!! AND NOT TO MUCH!!\n\nI have to confess I have also cut myself varios times! CALL ME EMO IF YOU WANT!! xDD

If they said call, and you need them, call.  If you want someone to call, that you can speak to now, you can call 1-800-669-7729, Silent Unity.  They will talk to you, and pray with, or for you, or any problem there may be.\n\nIt is said that a true friend, when a friend is in trouble, and climbs into a hole, will stand at the opening to the hole with a helping outstretched hand, until the friend comes out.  Call a friend, they know you best.\n\nBest Wishes, and God Bless

As sad as this sounds, it would really depend on the situation.  \n\nIf it was a kid or an old lady or someone I knew, then sure, I would do whatever I can.\n\nIf it's midnight and I'm walking around alone in a rough part of town and I see a 6'10'' 250 lb. drunk guy covered in tattoos passed out on the ground I wouldn't even get near him.  I'd just call the police on my cell and report what I saw but not after walking a block or so away first.

I have been a cutter since I was 11...I am now 18. I have also been in and out of rehab. You need to take it a day at a time. I just kept telling my self " I am not going to hurt myself today" and if I had to say it over and over and over again, I did.  Try that... if you mess up, dont get upset, just keep going.. So what if you mess up, just keep trying not to do it...its not the end of the world if you slip up. I also paint...I find that able to get some of my emotions out. I havent  cut in maybe 1 month...and you know what treat yourself to things and do things for yourself since you deserve them. Someone told me that you have to be selfish and focus on yourself in order to get better. I hope what I've said helps. If you belong to a church you might want to get involved in group with people your age. You might be suprised I did that, and I found that people were going through the same things I was. \nYou can email me if you want to talk. \nSavedbygrace2_8@yahoo.com

First talk to her about how it upsets you. Then if she can't do anything else, tell her you'll tell her mom but you guys can do it together or tell her she should tell her. or any other person she might trust, but has authority. Be careful to tell her how much you care about her and that if she keeps going in that direction, what if one day the cut is too deep and she's gone for good? Talk, listen, and support her in getting help. She will need it!

good luck doing this on your own. might just want to go to the barber. When i cut my husbands hair (low fade) i use the inch blade on top and the slanted one to do the sides.

If it is deep you will need stitches. If you do not go it will take a long time to heal and will be very sore and there could be complications also. You may need a tetanus shot also.

talk to a close friend....thats what i did. and it turned out that she had almost started cutting so i kept her from starting and she helped me quit. it was so easy....but i didn't do it for very long. now when i feel stressed or depressed. i blast my music and clean or exercise instead of cut. and if that doesn't work...i have my friend on speed dial.
