Bad dream about self harm

[Lil_Intro_Vert]

Last night I had a dream that I was wearing sweatpants and the sweatpants kept rolling themselves up, exposing my thighs and all my cuts, and no matter how hard I tried to roll em down they kept rolling back up and people stared. Cuts also appeared on my arms where I haven't cut irl and I couldn't hide them and I was so embarrassed that everyone could see. I usually don't have dreams so related to real life, usually they're just random stories, so I'm wondering if anyone else has had similar dreams.

Never had such dreams.. Many years ago, I was dreaming I was beating the living shit out of another boy though.. I don't get it where such dreams come from either...

I have had dreams like this before, years ago when I was still self harming regularly. I think it was brought on by the stress of going to school and fearing that people would see my scars.

I would also hide my scars for sure.. I'm glad I don't have any tbh...

I'm glad you don't as well :) It wasn't easy hiding them at times, I was always anxious and worried.

Thank you.. I believe you, it can't be easy, always in focus what to wear hiding them...
