I hate it when people judge books by their cover, or in worse cases, stereotype. Take for example, the society's perception on people who cut themselves. Everyone has the idea that they are basically attention seekers and do it for fun. After all, it's terribly entertaining to see dark red blood tricking down your arm right?
LIKE HELL NO?
Different people express their anger, frustration and depression in different ways. And I don't get why the hell are some of us judged for that. So what if people cut? These are the ones who'd rather inflict pain upon themselves than burden their friends and other people with their problems. They are selfless individuals who choose hold the weight of the world on their shoulders, and should never be condemned nor ostracised for that.
A friend whom I trusted betrayed me today to 2 people whom I barely know. Now I fear the whole school will know about my so-called morbid antics. What's making me so pissed off about the whole situation is that the 2 guys actually said, "Oh my God, you're one of those emo galz who cut themselves for fun??"
Burn in hell you bastards.
I know slitting wrists is something that I shouldn't be proud of. This is why I don't normally tell people about it. Hell, I didn't even tell my best friend I do it because I feel ashamed. This is probably due to what the world thinks about cutters. I've seen
Museum of Twits and even friends diss these people to the max. What the fuck is their problem, I don't know.
I beg you all to understand that sometimes, our minds inevitably react in irrational ways. However, there is a vast difference to whether you vent your rage on other people or yourself. And trust me, the latter is definitely better and more considerate.
I'm not saying you shouldn't talk to your peers about your problems. It's probably emotionally healthier. However, you have to accept the fact that some people just cannot and do not like to share their troubles with people. This is why there is such a word "introvert" in the dictionary and some fuckers have over-used this word till it's lost its meaning.
Okay my argument's getting off tangent now. As I mentioned before, when I'm really raving, my thoughts and emotions just cannot be expressed properly into words. I just want to say: Don't ever misunderstand depression. If you want to ostracise people who cut themselves, think of those who punch walls, kill animals, vent their anger on friends and the like. Trust me, they're a thousand times worse.
Oh, and I'm not defending those attention seekers who cut themselves and post pictures of their wounds on the Net. Because those are really sad people who don't deserve to live on this Earth.
Anyone who now thinks I'm a freak can go screw themselves as well. (:
Good bye and good night. Fuckers.
