i can’t tell you how long it takes for cuts to heal, everybody is different and our bodies heal at different rates and will look different. if these cuts are exposed you need to make sure they’re cleaned and covered and taken care of. if these cuts seem to be dangerous you should tell someone and get the support or help you need at the time. don’t be scared to reach out for that help because you’re not going to be judged, people want to help and help you to avoid hurting yourself again. you can use other techniques such as a rubber band on your wrist or holding ice cubes
