I've been having a bad time and I've just started cutting myself again to make me feel better, and I did it with Razor Blades last night and I now have marks all over my arm, and they are incredibly painful to touch..

I'm back to school tomorrow, how can I hide the marks from my mum, and from teachers at school???

My head of community at school is having to keep a eye on me, because I'm scared of going to school because everything I do I ALWAYS get shouted at by people at school.. I talk, I get shouted at, I move, I get shouted at, I'm sat there, I get shouted at, I cough, I get shouted at and I'm fed up of it!! I just can't take it any more! I had to see the school nurse other day :(


so yeah, how to hide my marks please!!!

oh hun. don't do that to yourself...you're worth so much more than that. Treasure your body..please. :( it makes me sad to see girls that are younger than me in the same situation i was in last year D: i know how much it hurts..but honestly, dont harm your body.

I started self harming in year 7, with the compasses and everything, I only do it when I am sad.. So I've been self harming on and off for 4 years :(

aw im sorry you have to go through this its truly a bad situation

its winter so you can just wear long sleeves until they heal

I don't wear long sleeves usually.. thats the thing.. I've got them on my arm, but on my wrists too

concealer might work get a full coverage one like the kat von d tattoo concealer

im not sure what a cheaper alternative is but i can dig around for you if you would like

I'm just going to be the first to say DON'T hide them.

If you do, you won't get the help that you clearly need.

Aubrin I can't order anything, so do you think foundation would work??

Caer I know what you mean, I just don't want my mum to see them really, she's got enough on her plate, and then she finds out her daughter self harms.. no just no

Um it might i just needs to be full coverage, if you can go to the drugstore and try something from the revlon photo ready line

and Caer i used to cut and i was able to get through it my self and i believe in healing and helping your self not getting meds or called crazy but where you are coming from makes complete sense

Cutting yourself is stupid.

You say you're sad, yes? Well how is inflicting more pain going to help? Talk to someone about your problems, don't cut yourself.
