I used to cut and burn myself. Moreso burn. I don't do it anymore, but sometimes I look at my scars and think of how relieving it felt. I know it's bad and won't do it again, but I can't deny that I sometimes miss that feeling. Weird idk why.

I used to as well, mostly on my left arm. I was deeply traumatized and depressed, the pain felt good. No one would really understand what it takes to get this far. Pain was a way to forget emotional trauma.

@SW-User couldn't have said it better myself. I'm sorry for whatever you had to go through

@Plumouter it's fine, past is past. Never look back, future is now

Sometimes when I look at a knife or hold it I think about how it feels to cut and I miss it a little. Same with glass. Sometimes I think , that doing that would help with feelings.

@Lonelyandyb i used to think the same. And it does..but only temporary and the scars are forever.
