I hate it when people see your scars and say "What the hell is that?" - it's pretty damn obvious what it is. Like if you seen someone on the street who had maybe been a victim of knife crime and had a scar across their face you wouldn't say "OMG WHAT IS THAT?" - cause again, it's obvious what it is.

I hate it as well when your friends say "If you feel like your going to cut yourself, can you please call me?" - Like when you're about to self harm, the last thing you're going to do is pick up the phone. I don't know about anyone else, but before I cut myself my body goes all numb and I feel so much anger that it's as if my mind goes to a completely different place.
