Ok this might get longish!lol I have always been a cutter, but when I was hospitalized back in December and that was the first time in my life at the age of 45. I was cutting everyday when I was in, I actually used the plastic knives from meals and a few other things you can get your hands on.

For some reason I tried burning myself with my lighter when I was outside having a smoke. I think I only did it four times, burning where I had cut, so now I have kaloid? The scars are raised right at the top of my hand by the wrist.

The first time I did it, it didn't really hurt of course it could have been because it was so damn cold outside. By the forth time it did and to be honest it didn't really do anything for me either.

I prefer cutting. My two cents.
