I'm PROBABLY going to get flamed for this and called closed minded etc etc. but I dont really care cause I am SOOOO frustrated with people and today's society right now.
TRUE STORY: Today at school, this grade nine boy had his girlfriend break up with him. Shame really, I mean by grade nine i think the average relationship length is two weeks? (up from one and a half in grade eight) Anyway...Apparently he got SOOOO upset that he decided to cut his wrists with broken glass then EAT IT! That's right...he ate the glass.
THIS is why I'm frustrated! Why the hell does everyone think its cool to "attempt" suicide? In case anyone wants to know: I put attempt in quotes cause thats not even a real attempt...if he really wanted to die he would have chose a more....usefull? method. Y'know....one that works?
So with that chance that he REALLY wanted to die out of the questions...whats left? Thats right boys and girls (i guess there are no girls in this guild but what evs) he just wanted attention. And my god did he ever get it! Thats ALL I heard about all day...
I just dont get where this huge fad of being depressed and suicidal came from? Fifty years ago there were NOT this many "depressed" people around. Yes I grant you there are real depressed people and real suicidal people around now but i highly doubt there are as many as these people let on.
Do these people not realise that they are ruining the chances of people who really NEED help getting it? I mean its the boy who cried wolf scenario that we ALL know. Its happened to me already: People come to me to help them with their problems...I've had far to many people who are "depressed" when really all they want is attention. Beacause of that, whenever anyone comes to me seeming depressed I assume they are just attention-whoring. Some arent. But how do we know the difference?
I have no pity for this glass eating boy. Fine, you are upset, Go for a run, go scream in a pillow, go jack off for gods sake. Swallowing glass will get you nothing but attention, and I mean the bad kind!
Ok I could go on for HOURS about this....and a lot more. This wasnt even the half of what I have problems with. But I'll stop now.
LET THE FLAMING BEGIN!!!!

I find this post offensive to all the honorable emo kids out there. D<
*gets blowtorch out and flames Lomi*
Wow...that sounded so innuendoie....
What can I say? Some people, particularly in this day and age, are desperately craving acknowledgement in this disgusting world we live in. I actually sympathize the wrist cutters a little more then you do, not that I agree with it, and there is something to inflicting pain on oneself. But eating glass and making it publically known is just attention whoring. If he wanted to do something like that, and wasnt looking for attention, he would have done it in private and not let a single soul know about it. The -only- motive someone would have to let people know that you have a thing for eating glass would be to get them to pity you.
I know that there is many people that people would stereotype as emo that dont tryto kill themselves, but they indulge in causing themselves pain to overwhelm emotional pain. I know this is true because I used to be one of those people. I stopped cause its kinda pointless for one, I have it better then many others out there do for two, and for three, I dont want to get an infection and go into septic shock and die. xDDD
In this case, I would give him the bad attention just because there was no grace and sublety with what he did. It gives emo guys the stereotyped image they have. Whining babies like that will get no sympathy from me. He has lived a very small percentage of his life, and he acts like it is over. He reminds me of my second boyfriend. If he wants to get glass lodged in his intestine, then good riddance. stare

In some ways I agree with you about the people who dont let anyone know. But really...there ARE different way of dealing with emotional pain. Cutting is NOT the only way. That way has become the fad, the popular thing to do when sad. I mean what happened to eating a tub of icecream? i know that cutting releases endorphins that make you happy, yadda yadda yadda...but so does working out, eating chocolate, having an orgasm and singing! Cutting is by not the only way of getting this endorphin rush. It's the one that "emos" choose because of the stereotypes of that subculture.
On top of that, this endorphine rush lasts for about a max of 20 mins, then the emotional pain is back...so what was the point of cutting yourself? Get help, doesnt even have to me a costly psychologist....talk to a friend! they can do wonders. Cutting is just a coward's (not to mention conformist) way out.

Smoking also does the trick! =D
*flinches in response to the likelyhood of Lomi smacking me*
But hey, I havent smoked for 4 straight weeks now...I think I deserve a hug or something as a reward....<.<;;
I dont neccessarily think it is a conformism thing, its probably more of a preference type dealy. If ya get the same thing from working out, then everyone could quit smoking by running instead of using the patch. But smoking just works better for some people. I bet that there were just as many people that were like this back in the day, there just werent any glass eaters that did it for attention. Im just saying that those people should be seperated from those that made it into a habit almost. Who knows? Maybe the cutting is an addiction.
And in response to the ice cream remark, thats what I ended up resorting to. Then I got fat. Then that makes another problem on my hands. Now Im aneorexic. Maybe I should just go back to being emo again. xD

You get TWO smacks!
One for smoking
Two for being anorexic!
I guess that makes three but whatevs.
And from what i know Smoking does not give you an endrphine rush....its the nicotine...BIG difference! One is natural, one is not.

Perhaps, but there is more to it then the endorphrine rush too, otherwise, like I said, people would be addicted to the less harmful patch. It can give you the same amount of nicotine. xD
As a random note, even though I quit for like 5 weeks now, I had one left that I was saving, and I got rid of it today. That will be the last cigarette I have. There would have to be something pretty severe to get me to go back. D<
