Hi Charlotte, well I can tell you that I’m 15 years old and I used to have a lot of scars on my arms, and I felt the same! I was reallt scared about if my family or my school mates would find them. And you know what? They did, my parents did. They were so worried about what was going on with me, so I went to therapy. I was proud of my scars because.. however when I made them, when I was cutting myself I don’t know how but the pain.. it was like it.. I felt so much better hurting myself. Well, what I did was to promise myself not to do it again because when my friends and family found my scars they thought I was crazy or something. Maybe I am but that’s my problem and I don’t have to let them know it. If I was on your shoes, I’d wear jeans, not shorts or dresses. Just hide them and promise yourself not to do it again, cause hurting yourself isn’t a good choice. Good luck x
stop cutting and get help. there is other ways to deal with your problems ok.
I struggled with this a lot when I first started cutting. And even now. I’m 17, and I’ve been cutting for about five years now.. but I learned that if people aren’t willing to stick around at my worse then they just don’t deserve to be with me. It wasn’t easy coming to this realization and it’s still hard trying to remind myself of that. But if cutting is what’s keeping you from killing yourself.. you can’t keep think of what others would think about it. But if you really want to stop.. you might want to look into seeking a Psychologist.
