didn’t know where else to come. i used to self harm and a year ago in january i relapsed for the last time, but ive been left with some pretty ugly purple scars on my arm, and they look very different to my older ones. i keep telling myself they’ll heal like the white ones from 2021 but im not sure they will. please help!!

:P

My girlfriend made me delete all of my sh pictures that I had. Now I have lost everything and cannot get it back and I deeply regret deleting them. Having them was a way to see my progress and past and I had ones of my first time doing it which was really bad. I just wish I had them again :( These are pics of my most recent ones and I’m going to keep them safe. Any tips on how to hide pics on your phone?

The oldest are from 20 years ago... I guess they will stay with me for the rest of my life. I don't know how to feel about it...

So I'm like 2 months clean I didn't hurt my arms, shoulders, stomach and thighs in 2 months..but I feel like I am crazy to have thoughts like "man this is disappointing" or "this is not enough" or even "I want to cover my entire body" even though having this makes me feel HIGHLY insecure

To be honest I feel like mine are invalid

So, i am trying to use moisturiser, but I can’t stand looking at my legs long enough. They disgust me because they’re too noticeable and at the same time I don’t feel validated in my shame, because their not „bad enough“.

But nevertheless I want to keep trying and need some recommendations. Lotions, creams and whatever might help :)

it’s been hard ngl. but i did it.

It’s been almost 3 months since I last $h and I just want to know if they will be gone by the time summer come around
