Hello there.
I have had similar feelings... I have often felt that my self harm is not "serious" enough to seek help. I felt like if I told anyone I self harmed and showed them my scars, they would laugh at me or make me feel even more pathetic for not hurting myself badly enough.
I have finally come to the realization that this is wrong. It's okay that we feel frustrated by these things, but I think that I cannot let the way that someone else harms their body decide how I harm my own. Situations are really not comparable. Everything is relative and personal when it comes to self harm...it is pointless to compare, I think.
I hope you don't feel pressured or forced to cut deeper than what you typically do. <3 hang tough
