The service
Have you heard of the British Red Cross Skin Camouflage service before?
Yes
Do you think this service would be useful for you?
Yes
You can come to a skin camouflage clinic if your doctor refers you to us. Would you be happy asking your doctor about this?
I'd be happy to tell my mum,who would then ask the doctor for me.
Would you be happier using the service without involving your doctor?
Well it would be easier,yes.
We ask under 16s to visit the service with an adult. Would you be happy to do this?
I might as she does know,but it would be too awqard.
If not, would you prefer to come:
Alone or with my best friend.
Do you self-harm, or have you self-harmed in the past?
Yes,i currently self-harm.
Please describe your experiences , in as much detail as you are comfortable with
Urm,i started cutting when i was 12. It started off scratching with sharp small objects,to cutting with a very sharp object,to burning. I do have a lot of scars,which i have tried getting rid of in the past,but it quickly became too much for me to handle my life without them,so i got rid of the make up(not even a day after,it was easy to get off). I want to stop,i really do,but then again ive wanted to stop since the day i started,so stopping sometimes isn't an option for me. Self-harm has a way of ruining everything,family relationships,friendships,school,exams,self-esteem. It quickly eats away at all the positives in your life.
Self-harm to me is like a long car journey,it starts off bumpy,then you soon lose your way and the problems start to arise. One day the car journey will stop,and you'll get out the car a new person,in a new place.But whether you reach your destination in time or not is a different matter.
Pm me if you need any more details
