Depression

Relief

"Describe what it's like to cut?"

Well go to the beach and walk in the water blindfolded.

You just keep walking.

You don't know where your going.

You just know your going deeper.

That's what the build up to cutting feels like.

You don't know where your going.

Depression has blinded you.

All you know is your going deeper.

Now just keep going until you drown.

You want air.

You want relief.

You don't want to be drowning anymore.

Now imagine the relief you feel when someone pulls you out of the water.

That's what cutting is like.

Relief.

Relief from all the pain you have been drowning in.

Relief from all the bullies from school.

Relief from all the imperfections and insecurities.

You might find cutting is disgusting, dumb, ect...

And you might not ever know or understand it.

But when your drowning you need saving.

You need relief.

You need it.

So what is cutting like?

It's relief.
