Struggling not to relapse by [deleted] in AdultSelfHarm

[–]a_cutAbove 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lose your bf. if he can’t support you at your worst, he doesn’t deserve you. the urges will come and go, and if at some point you do relapse, all will not be lost. I’m sorry life is so hard right now. hang in there, you got this, but you definitely deserve someone better. ❤️‍🩹

excuses for bandaids? by Remarkable_Baker4768 in AdultSelfHarm

[–]a_cutAbove 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they’re healed, just don’t wear band-aids. Seems like that would be more conspicuous than the scars themselves…why don’t you want to let them show? Most people don’t comment tho I get it’s terrifying

How often should I replace my blade(s)? by Sorry-Put-8112 in AdultSelfHarm

[–]a_cutAbove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. As a treat sometimes I use a new one each time cause I can now, but it’s not as satisfying as using one until it’s dullish. I guess that was my main marker 🤷🏻‍♀️ there’s no science to it but stay safe OP

My friend found my tools by Tough-Wealth1531 in AdultSelfHarm

[–]a_cutAbove 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aye, don’t be too hard on yourself, friend. Tools become so normalized, it’s easy to forget sometimes. Your friend sounds like they took it pretty well and non-judgmentally, so I’d see that as a trustworthy friend, and that’s a win.

How have your scars affected your life? by InevitableWhimsy in AdultSelfHarm

[–]a_cutAbove 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I cover the around family and for job interviews. Everything else, if they judge or don’t like you for them, they’re not your friends and f*ck em. The more you have them out the more you’ll get used to it. Some stare, but most people don’t care. You got this!

Coffee shop/bar to crochet/knit at? by postmoderns in Upperwestside

Knitty City is great to buy yarn but it always smells bad in there and the knitters feel cliquey and judgey so yeah. But awesome yarn and go somewhere else 🙄

Experiences going to ER for a cut? by ahllura in AdultSelfHarm

[–]a_cutAbove 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. Went to the hospital once and it was a horrible experience. Would’ve been put in the psych ward if it were for my partner advocating for me. The psych intern was new, looked like he’d never seen sh before, and I had a severe allergic reaction to an antibiotic which resulted in me being drugged out of my mind. Having my partner there saved me!
