A lot of sense, actually. I catch myself thinking the same when I want to add to them, that they're not bad enough and I need to add. When I don't want to, I carry them with shame. It's definitely not something I advertise, as I've always cut in places that can't be seen in my normal attire. My upper arms took quite a hit, but I can still wear t-shirts. However, I'm getting ready to tat up one of them. Then I'll only have one which I will cover when I know I'll finally to be done.
Sometimes I do look at my scars and just think, "Damn, that was a hard night. Glad I made it. I'm happy all I did was this."
As my T said, "I'd rather you cut and self harm than go further. If it keeps you alive, then do it."
