I've used SI for about 30 years as a coping tool, but I always cover the scars. Lately I've been thinking about cutting my face. I feel like I'm so transparent and I don't want people to see my pain. If my face is covered with scars, that will be all they see. Rationally I know it's not a good idea, but when I get to very dark places, I have a hard time being rational.

I guess I just thought putting the words out there would get it out of my head...
