My Self-Harming

Thinking back, I thought I’d been self harming for a year now but really? I’ve been doing it for almost 3. I was just thinking about everything and I remember in 6th grade I used to line my arms in rubber bands and just flick them until my wrists were bloodshot red. Then in 7th grade I finally got over that and tried cutting but swore I’d never do it again. Then I developed Trichotillomania (pulling out my own hair) and that got to an extreme enough point that I had to cut my hair short enough where I couldn’t see it unless I looked in the mirror. I still have the urges to do that and sometimes I do but not nearly as bad as it was before. Now I cut every night…everywhere.
