Q: Cut Question
asked by: vassiliki on March 18th, 2007

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!!
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

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.
