Have you had friends constantly making jokes about "emo" kids and telling them to go cut their wrists, not knowing that you struggle yourself? If you have, then you know how it can be offensive and how it makes it so much harder to find help when you need it.

Yes, I have had that happen. I cut for 5 years before I quit, and I still struggle with urges. And people made comments like that all the time in high school, while I was still cutting. And there's a girl that I used to do horse shows with who has pictures up on facebook of cuts. But you know what? I don't call her annoying or an attention-seeker. I feel really bad for her.
