nevertheless i cut myself sometimes i dont
think i m a cutter. i just do it when i
feel so deeply depressed that i want to
kill me. instead of killing me i think
that just bleeding is a better option. i
dont do it often and i decided to stop
after the last time cos i cant cotrol it
anymore. so i thew away all the blades and
razors. the problem is that although i m
careful not to cut deep i have scars on my
leg. they seem ugly and soon it s gonna be
summer. any advice on how i can hide or
make the scars not look so red?????

you can try and rub vitamin e on them.
not much you can really do. they have
creams and stuff for "scars' but not sure
how well they work.
Scars are embarassing, I always try and
hide my arms but every once in a while i
forget and get that damn question "omg
what happened?" hmmmmm figure it out
health question. lol

Wear Pants!! Posted: 03-19-07 12:24pm
wear pants!! but lightly coloured pants so
that the colours do not attract the hot
sun. or you could try and put foundation
on them i guess!! hahaha what a silly
suggestion
try anyway!!haha

What part of the leg are the scars on??
upper or lower. I have a couple of
cutting scars on my lower leg and i cover
them most of the time with knee high
socks...(cute ones, not just white) That
might be an option for you.

i have scars on my arms from cutting too.
i like them 'cause they remind me of where
i've been and how far i've come. i'm still
a cutter but i'm alot better than when i
first started. i hate having to contantly
wear long sleeves and when i accidently
pull them up i get that stupid question;
"what happened there?". "oh i fell down"
or "i had a terrible accident awhile back"
or "car crash", those always work. i just
wish people would mind their own buisness.
