Take all your clothes off, stand in front of a mirror. Now imagen yourself covered in cuts and scares. Think of the next couple of months you'll spend hiding from society, friends and loved ones. No. Put your clothes back on and get on with life..
You need to ask yourself what this self harm is getting you. It never gets you anything, to be blunt. Figure out where the pain or trauma is coming from in your past that is causing you to do this. If you can fix that, you can stop the urge.
One day my cutting problem got out of hand and I cut too deep. I cut through the tendon that moves my wrist up and down. Don't continue any further, something like this could happen and you will regret it like I did. I am also covered in scars and have to be aware that the areas are covered at all times. It can be hard.
