Before I get hate comments, I'd like to point out that none of these are new. I am not trying to get attention, nor am I trying to gain sympathy.

I used to self harm, it lasted a total of 6 years, and as of September 16th 2012 (My birthday) I am clean of wounds.
I'm putting this out there for all these young and beautiful/handsome people who have gorgeous skin, I know things are hard. But I'm proof that there can be change made. You just can't give up on yourself. It takes time, but you can stay strong if you keep trying your best.
These scars that are showing in this photo are now over 2 years old. I have used Vitamin E, Mederma, And a load of other lotions cremes and products meant for scars.. They don't fade.. Please, before you destroy your body like I did, think about this. You don't need to hurt yourself, things can get better.
Stay strong Beautiful/Handsome :heart:

I do like this picture, but I have one big problem with it; the quality. It's very poor and it takes away a lot of strength, the bracelet should be more readable for it gives more depth to the photograph.
I'm sorry for the criticism :(

I don't think the quality of the photo is really of that importance here...

I think it is, it could have been more powerful if it had been sharper. But that is just my opinion.

Thanks for sharing your opinion with me:)

I actually think the content of the image is way more important then resolution technicalities in this photo. I like the graininess of the photo, its a raw powerful snapshot of a very personal moment in time. I like the imperfectness of this photo. It is more real, but that is just me.

I know >.< I didn't really care, I used an ipod, it was originally just for instagram until someone told me to post it to DA, oh well.. It's the thought that counts I suppose

You're not any less beautiful, you may have alot of regret when you see your scars but they show that you have felt alot of deep emotions, someone who feels is a thing of beauty. Your wounds are a symbol if your humanity in a way. Self inflicted battle scars, emotions rising to the surface, whatever you want to call them, they are something I couldn't look upon with any disgust, you're something more than most with no scars, I can say it with certainty because of your long caption. Don't put yourself down about it, if you do. I've used something called 'bio oil' on some of mine and its the best thing I've tried, only worked on minor scars but yeah.
