  • Will I ever stop craving Self Harm?

    So Iv'e suffered with self harm for many years now and every time I think I'm over it I end up relapsing, I don't want to but it's almost a subconscious choice now, take today, I've been free from self harm for 6 months + and yet yesterday I was sitting watching TV and a panic attack hit me out of nowhere followed by the urge to cut (I am NOT suicidal btw) and before I know it I had slices half way up my arms, I regret it so much especially since I usually avoided my arms all together except from 3 or four times on my hands and yet I also kind of don't regret it at all.

    It seems like every time I make progress in not cutting I relapse worse then I was before, so my real question is will it ever stop, will I ever not go to that place whenever I get angry or scared? I do want to stop but after constant battling over the past few years I wonder if I will ever reach a point where I don't crave it.

  • How would you HONESTLY feel seeing self harm scars?

    I stopped cutting a while ago and only have scars on my thighs and wrist. I've always worn bracelets and my friends just thought it was a thing with me. In a rush to leave the house I foot them and I know at least 3 friends saw the scars on my wrists.

    1 Ignored them and continued on as normal. 1 Kinda stared and then kept glancing at my wrist throughout the day and one caught sight of them and went quiet for the rest of the lesson...

    How would you HONESTLY feel in the case of seeing a stranger or friend with them?

  • hiding/fading self harm scars?

    Hi so I stopped self harming a few months ago and was left with visible scars on the top of my thighs which I don't mind, yesterday my parents surprised me saying that we are going on holiday in august, I freaked out thinking they will see my scars, find out and get angry, my boyfriend gave me bio-oil saying it will fade them not knowing I started cutting again a few weeks ago.

    Basically will the bio-oil work on both the old scars and the new ones when they heal and do you know any other tricks to hiding them that can work especially since I will be wearing a bikini?? also I don't wear make up so taking foundation with me would hint something wasn't right so I can't use that to cover them.

    :)

  • How do I stop self harming?

    I've been self harming for years through burns, cuts and bruises on my thighs, I stopped for nearly a year before starting again. The only person who knew was one of my friends which I regretted immediately and thankfully who completely ignored it, My ex found out as well and dumped me ...

    Anyways I told my boyfriend of two years after he questioned why I kept refusing to have sex. I promised to stop after telling him and its been a fortnight now. But recently I've been feeling the urge to start again including cutting my arms which I've never wanted to do up till now, I'm worried I'm in over my head and the only thing stopping me is the fact my boyfriend will finally see my scars tomorrow and I don't want to freak him out more by having fresh ones.

    I need to know how to stop myself from a relapse, not for me but for him so any advice please!!

  • Looking for a series of books I read ages ago?

    hey so these were my brothers books and were unfortunately lost with him. it involves a boy called will I think who wants to become a knight. so to join the school he becomes a whipping boy but it turns out he was never going to be allowed in. so anyways he makes a potion which slows down time or speeds him up. one or the other. yeah I know it sounds weird but I think there's three or four books in the series and one of them includes something about a knightmare (spelt that way) so yeah that's all I can remember except that there's a girl who's based on red riding hood but isn't...
