I used to cut myself and now that I'm about to enter the workforce I'd like to get rid of or, at the very least, find someway to hide my scars.

>inb4 just own it anon
It's incredibly uncomfortable letting strangers see such an intimate part of my past and not something I want to do.

You can hide them by wearing long sleeves clothes or applying makeup. Long term, ive heard people covering their scars up with tattoos.

It is extremely uncomfortable knowing strangers can see your scars but from my experiences Ive gotten no remarks from anyone about them. Your scars are also on the underside of your forearm so its a lot easier to physically hide them by just crossing your arms, etc.

>>34725562
There are medical treatments that can make scars less visible, but not hide them altogether. You're just going to have to wear trousers and long sleeves, I'm afraid.

That sucks. I'm fine with wearing long sleeves since that's the main way I've been hiding my arms whenever I go outside anyways, but I'm pretty sure the new job I'm starting doesn't allow them in the dress code.

Not in a tranny way, but I kind of envy you. If I was a woman I wouldn't mind going out in public with my SH scars at all. As a guy, SH isn't really as socially acceptable as it is for women desu.

ok i know what im gonna say is tmi but when i was in tokyo i stayed in a hotel outside of tokyo skytree so it was a crowded area. i got out with mini shorts only i felt extremely embarassed and stared at. i walked maybe like 5 minutes to the train station then walked back out of embarassment lol. it was summer too !! i cant even wear mini shorts anymore bruh. its not good and i regret it a lot

cover them with fresh wounds

>its not good and i regret it a lot
Trust me, I get it. I can't tell you how much I hate having to wear long sleeves anytime I want to go somewhere, especially in this heat. I'm just saying that, personally, I think I'd have an easier time dealing with the anxiety and discomfort of going outside with my scars if I were you, because having SH scars as a guy is incredibly emasculating.

It's like tomboys. Men will foam at the mouth over a tomboy because nobody cares if a girl throws on some men's clothes. But put a dude in a dress and suddenly it's completely different unless you live in like Thailand or something.
