Self-Mutilation
Some people don't like blogs and don't take them seriously. I'm not one of them. Which may explain the fact that I have so many of them!
The biggest blog I'm involved in is undoubtedly Blogcritics; I don't actually get time to write for it as much as I'd like to - but with over 1,000 bloggers writing for it I guess they won't miss me too badly. Amongst other things I am the Blogcritics Comments Editor, which means monitoring over 500 comments a day (and rising) to prevent heated and passionate debate turning into pointless namecalling or worse!
Generally, the comments add a wonderful extra dimension to the original articles posted to the site, such as the following remarks from Self-Mutilation:
"I've read through this entire blog. Its amazing...just purely amazing. I can't find words to describe just how awesome it is that an internet site can CHANGE a person's life. Note to Nikki - you are such an inspiration to everybody who's read this thread. You've made so many improvements since back in 04 from what I can tell. We need more people like you in the world, we really do. I'm glad to hear that you are really doing better...you're an amazing person Nikki. I have a semi-weird question for anybody who keeps checking back on this website...What does it feel like, or what are you thinking when you are in a therapists room? I don't know it may seem wierd, but it iterests me. The opportunity to have the ability to learn about this sort of thing in a first handed format is very interesting. Can anybody describe it, like with details and everything? I'm also writing a short story that involves 'cutters' (I dont mean to label, but I don't know what to referance all of you by. I'm really sorry, I don't mean to sound stereotypical / offensive whatsoever) and after reading this site, it gave me such a better understanding just on everything. It changed my ways of thinking, but in a good way. It taught and is still teaching me how to be more...accepting I guess you could say. I've never once mutilated myslf, so I didn't understand what people felt when they cut, but now I know. I'm never going to judge anybody based on their...emotional status, and it kills me to think I know kids who make jokes about cutting and self harm. If they only knew how serious it was, maybe they could get some sense into their heads. (Its hard for me to explain without seeming offensive, but i'm trying my best here) It would be really awesome if somebody could answer my question about the therapist.
Question: What does it feel like, or what are you thinking when you are in a therapists room? What does the room look like, feel like, smell like. Are you nervous, quiet, annoyed? (I don't know... this may seem wierd, but it iterests me. I'm trying to help myself gain a better understanding of this subjuect matter since I'm currently in the process of writing a short story that involves people with these types of issues.) I do not want to hand in a paper that alludes to false information, and I was thinking one of you could help me out. I'd like to add real information into my story, and it is harder for me to describe my topic matter if Iv'e never experienced it before for myself. So please, try and paint me a picture with words regarding my question. Thank you so much, I appreciate ALL of your guy's time.
THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO HAS BEEN POSTING ON THIS SITE. ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO CHANGE THE WORLD DAY BY DAY. <3"
