Had brutal depressions combined with anger issues when I was younger. I drunk every night by myself just to blunt the feelings. It usually degenerated to self-mutilating and even stronger selfhate then when being sober. After some time I got myself into this circle when I just had to drink atleast a bottle of wine before sleep or I'd get crazy.
Edgy shit. I got to college and the depression and self hate got out of a way, atleast for most of the times. Got my shit together but the scars unfortunately didn't go away in the same way as the shit in my head.
It's shit, I'm afraid that someone will see this - it's pretty obvious where I get it. I was thinking about getting a tattoo over the scars, just black scars over the scars, how would it look? Any ideas for a cover up tattoo? Any other ideas what to do with this shit?

Tattoo it for sure faggot. Get anything, a Greek god. Maybe atlas holding the world, or Sisyphus pushing his rock up the hill. Bitches love that.

Nice b8, m8.
I always loved these, that would fit you almost perfectly I reckon.

I wouldn't be able to tell if those scars were self inflicted or you if got them in the country falling from a tree.
My cousins have some scars very similar to those and they got them playing

This.

>>17222262
Seriously? I'd knew immediately.

There's other shit that can scarp your skin in a similar fashion.
Man who the fuck cares anyway.
Your body and your choices, nobody should make you feel bad nor inferior over the fact that you have self-inflicted scars or 'accidental' scars on your arm.
Man up, you pussy.
No Tat necessary.

>Man up, you pussy.
That really is the point here. I'm ashamed of this pathetic shit I did.
>>17222109
I have lots of scars for the same reason, but my point of view is very different.
Mine are mostly on the shoulders and very few ppl saw it (less than 5) and it happened 10 years ago.
As they are a part of what made me who I am now, I keep them as a reminder of how low I went and how good things got.
I think no one should be ashamed of their history, who you were is not who you are.
If you have kids, they may be subject to depression too, maybe it'll help them relate better to you, and it'll be easier to help them probably...

That's actually pretty inspirating. My only problem is that I see it as a sign of weakness, might that be because I still have not sorted all my shit up? I'm not very opened as a person and this gives away a lot...

I guess you got to make peace with yourself anon, it is not because you were weak that you are now, and actually, reading about your life now you seem to be much stronger.
I don't know anyone who is always strong 100% of the time, not being self conscious takes a real and long work on yourself, but you can achieve it.
Remember that is you who make other ppl's opinion matter not the other way around.
I'd get a tattoo if I were you. I'd just think that you're a pussy if I ever seen that.
