1. Should I leave it covered or open
2. How long should I keep it covered before being able to let air get to it
3. How can I reduce the pain it is causing me
4. What should I cover the wound with ?
5. How come I got down to the fat layer with such an undeep cut ?
Please help me. I regret all of the cuts on my at the moment. I just want this wound to heal ASAP so I can get on with everything.

Fabulous that you won't cut again, as for what you should do:
cover it to keep it out of germs and harmful debris
use a bandaid that is "breathable"
use ice to relieve the pain
cover it with a bandaid either a large or a smaller one, but make sure that the gauze on the bandaid is well protected and has the adhesive around it to protect the cut
It would depend where you cut yourself
Where did you cut yourself???

"To dwell in the here and the now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibility, plan for the future. The idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about past or worries about the past or worries about the future. If you are firmly in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness by looking into the past, but you are still grounded in the present moment"
