Can I get your opinion?!
Question: Can I get your opinion!?
I am a self harmer!.!.!. specifically more now than ever!.!.!. I am mainly a cutter!.!.!. but recently I switched to just about every type of harm you can think of!.!.!. Im so not exaggerating!.!.!.
my question is!.!.!.a few days ago i burned myself with keys on my wrists!.!.!. i had never burned before and i thought that there really wouldn't be any scars!.!.!. (i guess i just wasn't thinking)
Anyway!.!.!. I really do not like the idea that anyone can see any of my injuries!.!.!. they mean something more to me than some kind of attention thing!.!.!.
so now i have 4 scars made from blisters!.!. the scars are elongated and look very much like burns!.!.!. My question is!.!.!. should I just keep them in the open or put a large band-aid over them!?!? I don't want the band-aid to make it look worse!.!.!.
Just your opinions!.!.!. thanksWww@Answer-Health@Com

My experience I would suggest to leave the area open, place some type of healing cream like mederma to minimize the scars!. After the blisters disappear there usually is a rather larger area than expected, but trust me when I say it will heal up fine with the help of creams!. Scars wont be completely gone but wont be as noticeable!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First, off, you have a compulsive disorder and need to seek psychiatric help!. A doctor can provide you with medication to help you back off from hurting yourself!. You do know why you hurt yourself!? Right!? It's because you feel out of control about the world, and want control about your own body!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Keeping them open will assist with healing, it will also be less obvious!.!.!.!.you may be lucky and it wont scar depends on the depth of the burn but you seriously need to find alternative ways to manage yourself because self harm isnt the answer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
From somone who was there, I just found a bandaid that blends with the feel of normal skin!. It doesnt have to be the same color, just cover up the bandaid with makeup & then wear bangles or braclets!. Dont wear wrist bands, those are dead give aways!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I reckon you thrive off the feeling of being depressed and sad!. Well I know I do as well haha!.
just try and put that energy and creativity into something productive like art or music or something!. And leave the scars behind :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I cut myself alot but always cover them up with plasters and a jumper or coat so nobody can see them!. your burns will heal quicker if you keep them in the open!. be strong!. xxWww@Answer-Health@Com

how hard is it not to hurt urself jus don't do it its stupidWww@Answer-Health@Com
I'd recommend you get yourself a tube of Mederma (a cream that helps reduce the appearance of scars) and apply it to your scars so that they become less noticeable!.
I know you already know this, but I have to write it--cutting isn't the answer!. Taking your meds regularly (if you have meds-- if not, a visit to a psychiatrist would be a very good idea) and using coping skills like hanging with friends and getting into some hobbies are both infinitely safer than self-harming!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
