eraser burns

one of my friends told me to erase my hand one time but I didnt want to,later on that day I tried and I ended up doing it 3 times on my hand and my mom saw them and said she was going to put me in therapy if I kept doing it so I stopped doing it on my hands and started doing it on my legs, I did like 4 on each side and at that time I wasnt thinking about the scars.now I cant wear shorts and I havent told anyone about them.I wanna tell my mom but im scared she gonna tell everyone. and sometimes I still feel like doing more burns.what do I do to stop myself and make the scars go away?please help me

Answer #1

well it all begins with SELF ESTEEM, having a better self image of yourself is the starting point. you need to use a lot more self control- when that urge to erase comes on- funnel those feelings into something else- go outside and be active, wear yourself out and you shouldn’t have the energy to self harm.

you do need to seriously find a hobby which will take your mind off of erasing, you are good at some things- start there, it will take hard work to stay away from teh erasing, but you will be able to do it, JUST FOCUS ON NOT DOING IT AND YOU WILL BE FINE. unfortunately- you will have to live with your scars, they may fade a little bit over time, but they will be a constant reminder of what you have done to yourself- and the feelings behind why you did it.
