friends help: advce.covering cuts - Help.com

It’s good that you see that hurting yourself is not the way to solve your problems, and it is good you’re trying to stop before you get too attached.

My best suggestions for covering the cuts … foundation. If you have to show your arm and you can’t wear long sleeves than foundation is probably the best way.

I know how you feel … kind of, so if you ever want to talk, feel free to post on here or message me. Good luck!

That is good advice bookworm. If they still show through and they ask what happened, maybe you could say you were in an accident and feel through a glass window that wasn’t properly installed yet. Like in a new home being built. Don’t know other then saying a car accident maybe also. Please don’t cut anymore. Glad to see that you stopped. Never go back to that behavior under any circumstance. Good luck :)

do you have a cat? or pet? you could say it scrached you

Well I would yes..use foundation and powder. Yes..have a story ready in case of any questioning,and then make sure that your parents are not in the room with you. You have a right to privacy in the doctors office. Maybe tell your parents that you have some embarrassing questions or something that way they don’t get offended or suspicious. You should prolly have some embarrassing questions lined up and then perhaps look up the answers so if you get pressured into telling the parentals why you had them out of the room you can spit a few out..with the answer you “received from the doc.”
cutting:
Please don’t do that anymore, it really just makes you feel worst in the end..plus if your worried about stretch marks being embarrassing, then think about cut scars…
which I would recommend putting some scar cream on those right away. Or when they have healed they have scar cream patches that you can stick on there to work all day..
Heath Issues:
what are your health problems stemming from? Is asthma the main problem or the icing on the cake?
School:
the school wants to chauffeur you there and back huh? Let them!!
If people wanna talk crap…F em all anyways! ok?
And i know you have probably heard this a million times but high school…seems like your world right now because it is, but remember..once its over your in a whole new world and all those people who were rude or mean or just plain old (email removed) are going to be so minuscule that you can hopefully at that point in time, just chuckle a bit at their ignorance and stupidity before effortlessly tossing them from your mind and moving on to whatever really is important in your life…

Ive been in a similar situtation ive cut myself before i thoiught that it helped my problems but as you know it didnt.So what if people dont except it right away your not alone in this problem people will come around soon eneough. And you have your sister to confide in. As for your school problem keep tryin ive been there just try and thats all you can do.Dont push your self though not so much anyways.Then if you do youll have more problems.
