I selfharm. I have for about 2 or 3 years now I think. And it sucks because I want to stop but I don't at the same time. I love the feeling it gives me but I know it's bad. With that being said, I've been on a tattoo journey. I want lots of tattoos but they will cover up where I usually do my self harming and I don't know if I'm ready for that commitment to stop doing it just yet. I wish I never started self harming in the first place. It's a addiction, it's my go to when ever I feel upset. But now it's controlling whether or not I get a tattoo. I feel hopeless

Welcome,

I understand you are a self-harmer and have self-harmed to the past. I know dealing with emotions and the emotional pain can be difficult and it feels like the only way out. But it really isn't. If you want to you can cover up your scars with tattoos but I don't know if that will really help or make you feel better, but it could stop, you from further self-harm. I know it's hard to break the cycle especially if you have been doing this for a long time. But you have time whenever you are ready to make that commitment 7 cups will support you either way. I understand these things can make you feel hopeless, but I believe that you can succeed in this goal of stopping self-harm and that I'm here every step of the way if you want. I want you to know you're not alone and that 7 cups supports you any way. I hope you feel better soon and feel at peace about this soon.

Warm Regards, Kindcherry2
