Being Emo / Cutting

There are two kinds of emos honestly, people who do it for style or attention and people who legitimately have the psychological disorder or are in a deep state of depression.
Cutting yourself is of course, no solution.

You are completely correct, I have been through a few people that committed suicide and/or attempted it. They had problems, they needed help and I will remember that to this day I could be the one to save a life. It's tough, a kid shot himself in the head for bullying. To fake being depressed for attention is horrible, people who actually need help deserve the attention. If
You see an eom kid as you call them, talk to them ask them what's wrong, you could plant a beautiful flower and watch it change overtime.
