Discussion I wish I could cut and then make it disappear

[nomoredolor]

It would be so great if I could self harm without the permanence. I would slash and cut and bleed. *poof* all of it gone. That way I wouldn't have to hide the cuts or worry about infection. Or scarring. I would miss the after pain but it would be worth it bc I could just cut again and make it disappear. It's such an effective coping method (albeit a negative one.)

I wish this, too! I try not to cut in a way that makes it scar in a pattern, so it will look like scars from random cuts. Sometimes I slack with aftercare but I know that's important for scars to be minimized. I also try to eat healthy things and adequate amounts of protein, but I slack with that sometimes, too. Stuff that could help heal better would be; protein, omega 3, omega 6, vitamin E, vitamin C, vitamin K.

You know, you can just buy some silicone scar sheets or silicone scar gel to reduce the appearance of your scars instead of dedicating an entire skin care routine to minimizing them.
