>started self harm at 11 years>still doing it at 19 years>legs and arms covered in scars that'll never leavehow can i start to accept them and is there any way i'll ever be able to stop?
>>35099471if you do it compulsively, try to find other things to do instead & force yourself to do those, also try to avoid whatever things/stress triggers the compulsionscars sucks but tons of people have scars from random shit, it doesn't matter that much, you can still live a good life
i've seen people successfully divert the urge to self-harm into vigorous exercise, i don't know if it's a good idea if it even worksi'd tell you to see a decent therapist if possible but idkmeds are probably not a solution & your best bet is likely experimenting & forcing yourself to do other things
>>35099471just cut the scars off duh!!
