I dont understand, if you were cutting yourself badly enough to have lots of scars now, how the hell did you manage to just trot on through uni and get a career? I was on this site back when it was Ruin Your Life too, think I was Lady Sukkubus then. I stopped self-harming for similar reasons but my cuts were never that deep so scarring is minimal. However I didn't magically get better I got ignored by the NHS and went through various traumas as they ignored me when I asked for help. I'm in private therapy now, after being unwell throughout my 20s.
So how can you have self harmed so severely if you dont actually seem ill/it doesn't effect you? Find it a bit much I waas judged on not having deep scars but clearly I'm more scarred inside, so why was I not helped? How can you cut yourself so bad yet be fine to live normally? Its people like that get all the help whilst us really struggling get ignored.
