For those who self h@rm by cvtting, here’s some tips for taking care of yourself from someone whos being doing it for 10+ years
•It’s okay, don’t think any less of yourself for relapsing. It happens and its okay. No one ever tells you that its okay.
•Invest in a person first aid kit, I’m a first responder so I’ve always been stocked up. You should make sure your kit has the following:
• sterile cleansing wipes (you can never have enough of these)
•Conforming bandages (you’ll need this for bigger cuts to help keep the gauze secure
•Microporous Tape
•Different size wound dressings
•Plasters of all different sizes (fabric ones work best I find)
•Kitchen roll (I know that sounds strange but it helps to stop the bleeding, where as tissue just falls to bits)
•Some wound closure stitches (butterfly stitches)
•Wash your hands properly before you cvt, it will help keep you safe okay
•Whatever your going to cvt with make sure you give it a good clean with a sterile wipe, I got some nasty infections from not doing this when I was young.
•After you have had your ‘session’ (at least that’s what I call mine) make sure that you treat your wound properly:
•Hold the kitchen roll to your wound until it stops bleeding.
•Clean the area with the sterile wipes thoroughly
•If it is small enough for a plaster then out that on there
•If not use the wound dressings, measure up to the wound ensuring that there is a good finger width between the edge of the cut and the end of the dressing
•Use the tape to secure it into place
•Hold one end of the bandage away from the wound before you start wrapping it (so you have something to tie it off with)
•Don’t wrap it too tight or it will be uncomfortable and you’ll want to take it off
•Change the bandage or plaster every day at least once (I know that it’s hard but if you don’t it might cause an infection)
•If you cvt too deep, it happens it’s okay I’ve been there, push firmly against the wound with a tea towel or any fabric you can get. If the blud is pouring out I’m going to need you to hold it against you wound as hard as you can and then a little harder. Call you Emergencey service number (999, 911 etc) they will talk you though what you have to do and get you help.
•Dispose of any blades you use, don’t use them twice it WILL cause an infection that can get into your blood. I bought pencil sharpeners on Amazon for very cheap. One use only okay? You don’t want to get sick over it.
•If you want to help your scars become less visible use Bio Oil I think that it works the best and really helped me with the ones on my arms.
•There are things that can help you with your urges or relapses.
•Some helpful apps that I would recommend are:
•StayAlive (I have had this on my phone for many years now and it has saved my life
It has saved my life on many occasions and if you find that you are in need of die help, you can show it to the emergency services and they will help you okay. We are trained in this.
•Harm less (It gives you motivational things whenever you open it, it’s 100% customisable and it can help you keep track of your relapses)
•Its okay to relapse, I’ve been though it many times, I recently just relapsed acted a 250+ day gap. Its okay and no one says it enough. You haven’t let anyone down, no one is disappointed in you, your okay.
Just some tips I’ve learnt over time, it’s going to be okay

cutting on your hips makes pulling down your shorts kind of hard, like shit shit shit that hurts but that tiny part of your brain is saying “yes give me more give me more.”

The worst part about mental illness is the little part of you that doesn't wanna get better. That tells you it's easier to just drown in it.

i was happy for awhile, doing okay and feeling fine
smiling and laughing, going out and having fun.
i felt a light shadow but tried not looking at it and to run
the sun would come out again eventually, right ?
the sun would shine and light up my dark, right ?
but the shadow grew and grew.
it grew so fast and suddenly everything was painted grey again.
i can smile but i can’t feel it no longer.
and i can laugh but i can’t feel it no longer.
the sun is shining somewhere but i can’t see it no longer.
i remember this is all i know,
this dark abyss i can’t seem to climb out of. every time i thought the sun was shining for me it was only a ray passing by
i am still trapped in this piece that is my mind.
will i be able to make it out ? will i be able to see a bit of that sun ? will it shine for me for once ?
i want to believe that’s going to happen but i’m not sure i’m going to make it
my heart feels heavy and my chest feels tight
i’m trying to breathe
i’m trying to hold on
it’s aching
and i feel like i’m fading
there’s no hand i could hold
no shoulder i could rest on
i’m standing and still standing
but my knees can’t hold me up
i’m breaking and falling apart
but i can’t make me care for my heart
it’s shattered, what a shame, but i can’t feel any more for myself.
i’m not so sure there are any more feelings
or any at all?
i’m a silhouette and nothing more
the person i once was seems to be gone
i feel my heart beating but am i still alive
when everything seems so dead inside
