Hey all. I like cutting. Not to CTB but to harm. I like the blood. Is there a way to make it hurt less?

swiping faster (if you're using a razor blade) and with more pressure makes it hurt less for me. but this is also a way to get very deep very quickly- so be careful if you are not wanting to go too deep

In my experience, the sharper the blade, the cleaner the cut, the less it hurts.

I had a knife I sharpened to an absolute razor-sharp edge, like mirror reflection sharp. It would glide across my skin so easily.

at one point it became a comforting ritual. Get home from school, pull out my sharpening kit, spend about an hour honing the blade, then slide it across my skin and watch the little rivulets of blood trail down my legs before cleaning up and waiting until the next time.

Easiest way is going faster with a really sharp blade such as a DE blade. Just have to be very careful as they are so sharp there isn't much resistance and you may not even feel that you hit something important. That's what we do anyway. When we cut, alice is mostly after blood. Last session felt like a scratch but was very deep dermis, almost hypo-dermis in one swipe each cut just as we prefer.
We have also numbed the area before just like some do for a tattoo. Honestly, not worth it compared to faster with a really sharp blade. Takes too long to effectively numb (like an hour) and our impromptu SH therapy sessions are usually spontaneous after the urges get strong enough to break us. It also feels strange mentally for us to numb the area. The lack of most sensation if numbed with a *caine is also kinda weird to us and throws us out of our trance we go into each session although that may just be us.
