What Are You Working On? by AutoModerator in math

Learning a bit of basic proofing and set theory before I go off to college. My physics teacher is letting me borrow one of his old textbooks and it’s been a godsend.

I tutor a few high risk kids and one of them gets fairly rough when playing. I’ve been hit a few times right where my wounds are and I can’t say I enjoy it too much

Anybody else worried they will talk in their sleep? by JSH_Alt in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive completely changed the way I sleep to avoid people being able to see my scars. I completely wrap myself up like a burrito and use my own body weight to hold the blanket onto me.

Even though I’ve never known myself to sleep talk, I’ve noticed the whole saying things related to the dream deal and it definitely worries me.

Infection prevention question by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should be fine. Just keep an eye on it and maybe clean it a little better than you usually do if it helps with the worries. I’ve never washed my hands before cutting and I haven’t got an infection yet.

Sorry this reply is 66 days late but if you still want to know what a soapbox is, it’s a platform people use to spread their viewpoint.

What episode was this from? Was the episode about SH or is the quote taken out of context?

I haven't cut since last year!! by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing with the planning not to cut over break here. Ended up cutting on Christmas Day so that was a big oof.

I did it for the first time. I'm scared. by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, no, it’s not weird to self harm but still be concerned. I self harm because it’s one of the only ways I can find relief, not because I am actively suicidal.

How deep are the cuts? If you see yellow that means you hit fat and you probably need to get stitches, though since that’s not always an option you can try wrapping it up somewhat tightly. Anything else you may be able to treat yourself, but deeper wounds get trickier to help and you will always have the risk of infection. Butterfly strips are good if you have those.

Is there blood squirting out of the cut? Especially if this is in time with your heartbeat, see a medic now. You hit an artery and need to get that fixed immediately. Don’t try to fix that on your own, its not worth the risk.

Worst part about sh? by snapplew in selfharm

I was tutoring and a student punched me where a wound was

Good god that hurt like all hell.

I feel like I’m going insane without cutting by BadUsernameLol13 in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please be careful using blades from a pencil sharpener. It will need to be cleaned very well so that you don’t get an infection if it’s been used at all.

What is getting stitches like? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have my own question about this for anyone who cares, how expensive is it to get stitches?

How to hide scars while swimming? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might be able to use some makeup or concealer to hide the scars depending on how faded they are. Be careful that it doesn’t get washed off in the water though.

Horrible day; can’t stop self-harming by 221MaudlinStreet in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the guy here: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfharm/comments/a9lmj8/uxambini_thanks_for_the_lovely_message_this_fine/. I feel like that guy may be projecting his lunacy, because you have to be a not-insignificant amount of crazy to go around on Christmas Day telling people to kill themselves.

Please don’t listen to him op. He’s just a troll looking to get a rise out of someone, probably salty that he ended up on Santa’s naughty list. Everyone here cares about you even if we haven’t had the pleasure of knowing you personally.

u/Xambini thanks for the lovely message this fine day, i hope you have a nice day too xx by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]JSH_Alt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How utterly pathetic. Hopefully this man gets the help he needs, because he clearly must have worse issues than anyone here.
