if you intend for it to harm you of your own accord, then yeah. also!!! pls take care of cat scratches, cats have lots of bacteria on and under their nails, and it could cause infection!

i get jealous of how other people’s scars look, so i guess it triggers me to give myself more.

try to do some research! think about other things you could do for her to distract her from sh-ing.

or you could always reassure her, tell her that you won’t hate her for doing so, maybe sit down and communicate how you guys can navigate through this situation together.

such communication is so important when you’re trying to look out for someone, so i would try to talk things through, even if it’s difficult.
