Man slices arms with saws at Calif. Home Depot - Houston Chronicle
Mercy!
I used to worry terribly over a friend I met in a forum who was still experiencing self-cutting and suicidal terrors after a classmate died of suicide.
When I read this story of a man cutting himself, as in using SAWS at Home Depot.
At first I felt grief and shock, then relief that a off-duty paramedic acted quickly to
stop him from bleeding to death. And then it really made me pause.
In comparison with this incident (or the recent stabbing spree at a campus in Houston),
people cutting themselves is "selfless" in comparison where they seek to hurt themselves
to cry out for help, and are not directly trying to hurt others though it is indirect.
It is humbling to think that suicides or self-harm are often judged as selfish, but in comparison with those who seek to shock or hurt others, it puts in a different perspective.
If you know anyone suffering from self-cutting/mutilation, self-medication due to addiction or
abuse, even self-starvation or binge eating/purging due to an eating disorder or phobia,
PLEASE give them a hug for me today, either verbally or nonverbally.
Please refer the ones who need help but don't want anyone to know:

(there is also a great self-help and support community online at mdjunction)
I plan to write to the students/staff at the local college where a criminally ill student stabbed about 15 people, and offer to help form a team to get grants for a R&D study in earlier diagnosis, intervention and treatment for criminal illness using brain technology for detection.
So sorry if anyone has lost someone to mental illness, addiction, abuse or other disorder.
Please take care and please ask for help, especially if your friends don't.
My friend who helps with free spiritual healing to reduce or cure physical and mental
disorders and diseases will help anyone who calls, and the help is free 24-hours:
713-829-0899 [One woman called and saved her brother from drugs who gave up on help.]
Thanks and please take care!
