People have said some really shitty ignorant things about my visible self harm. I hate the way they feel entitled to comment, pass judgement, and blatantly stare. It’s not wrong to give concern and want to start a conversation about if there is anything I need. But for fucks sake don’t ask me “where I got those scars from” or tell me “how horrible” they look whilst I’m trying to serve your table or making dinner. Why do I need to feel uncomfortable and triggered so that you can nosy into my deeply traumatic personal stuff just because you can see it on my skin?
All the questions and statements included in this video have been shared by sufferers of self harm and the self-harm actions featured in this video are reflective of ones I have used myself. This film is not intended to be viewed by minors.
