I think it’s healing. It looks somewhat better than when I first got it. Btw, It’s been covered up the whole time. I put band-aids on it so it doesn’t get infected or just so it can heal faster. I don’t know. I don’t want people to start asking dumb questions.

I remember in junior high after I had cut my arm to pieces how hard it was thinking others would judge me. I just wore a jacket all the time until they healed. I like the idea of long sleeve shirts.
Mine was pretty deep. Although it didn’t hurt at all now it kinda does. It’s like you have a bruise and someone is always pressing on it and it’s hard to move my hand. Did that happen to you?
I had one fairly deep one but the rest were fine after a few days. My arm felt like it was always a little bit on fire, but it didn’t hurt too badly. Yeah, it was like having pressure on it. That sounds familiar. It might leave a scar for a while and that sucks. Luckily mine didn’t.
Going back to school with like 20 cuts on my arm was super hard. I told some people that I got in a fight with my cat and some believed me. Hence the wearing of the jacket. If it leaves a scar, you can either tell people the truth when you feel comfortable (be very careful with this!) or make up a freaking awesome story. I think sometimes a lie is not a bad thing in certain circumstances.
Sorry if I’m ranting.
Use some neosporin, that scar gel is worthless crap. Also be careful of how you cover, it, so it doesn’t remove the scab.
🙁
I remember when I fist started cutting (in grade 5), I’m quite badly addicted now and I can’t stop. I would really recommend you to not do it again though because the relief is only temporary, just like your pain.
