I like seeing my scars. I dont know why. Well with cutting for me not only do I like how it makes me feel and shit but I like to see it. I like the visual aspect... idk maybe I am weird

Im still struggling to stop but i did for over a year and even then it was hard. At my old job i used to get asked all the time why i had scars all over and what do you say.... Sometimes id change the subject, or make up a story, but i always walked away feeling like crap. Its not bad enough that you have to see them everyday but so does everyone else. I hate them and at times hate myself to. Be proud of yourself for not cutting in such a long time, i am.ive never made it that long, congrats. Keep up the hard work. I know this probably didnt help much but just know, i know ow it feels and am here if you need to talk. Congrats again on the 3 years

i hate my scars...people don't really ask me about them though, because i make sure people NEVER see them. i think i've worn long sleeves every day for almost 2 years. i have around 500-600 scars too. it sucks. i know how you feel, hun.

i dont know how many scars i have because i don't count them. every once in a blue moon, me slitting one slit in my arm suffice for the moment, and then sometimes i'll go crazy with it. My scars affect me majorly, both positive and negative. the positive and negative r sorta on a scale, and sometimes the positive outweighs the negative and vice versa. I love looking at my scars and making more and more, but then it makes me more depresesd, but if i dont cut, i still get depressed. its a lose lose situation for me

i dont mind the fact that i have scars. i prefer to keep them to myself but sometimes they show. i'm very ashamed of my scars. there mostly on my wrist and left arm so its hard to hide them.
i think of my scars as "it was a bad day that day but atleast i made it through that day" theres a qoute i love that describes it "i may have been weak enough to make that cut but i was strong enough to make it through the day"
-hugs-

I appreciate everyones feedback.
I really hate my scars fully, there is no positive about it. Just, if they wern't created I probably wouldn't be as compassionate as I am. And grateful. But I also wouldn't be struggeling with this still.

I worry about what people think. I've been asked and I usually say something like, "I appreciate your question, but it is something I choose not to discuss at this point in time." I think I've only had two people ask, but I know others look and wonder and judge. I wish the scars would just go away. I wish one day I would wake up and have smooth skin on my arms. That would be cool. I've prayed for it but it hasn't happened yet. Maybe one day.

Its split for me some times I hate them but most times I look at them as battle scars, proof that i survived and I can go on.
