im in a first responder class and they started talking about self injury and how its a way to let out feelings and how in some cases its used to get attention. they talked about if u see it tell a social worker or doctor and stuff. man and i was in a tang top. first time in months i felt ashamed and scared about having my scars discovered. I use to be "i rather have you ask me about my scars instead of staring and making up stuff" i wanted to say something but kind of shyed away. It just felt weird talking about a condition you have with a group and they dont know much about it.
