Animal Scratch on the Ribs
↑ some small blood vessels can be seen under dermis
↑ scar is no longer hard and painful. pic was taken a few days ago.
This one was easily one of the most painful cuts i've done. healing was a huge pain too, inconvenient spot so the bandages kept sliding. during the early stages of scar healing, when i would get cold, these would tighten and if i bent to the side it would be so tight..not so much the case anymore thankfully
I'm aware that these aren't perfect, i never expected them to be. It's hard to do on yourself without proper tools and skill.
These were for art purposes, not self harm. It is in the self harm category bc it fits best here.

refilling my skin jar with 91% isopropyl alcohol
blood spill from sections 7, 12, and 14
These are not meant to be pretty, they are a result of my OCD/OCPD obsession of filling space and the goal was to make it a wall of scar tissue to quiet my mind..I am trying to stop but it is much easier said than done..and yes, i am officially diagnosed with both OCD/OCPD
The reason I save the skin is because I feel like I'm wasting it otherwise.
I will continue to update this post but here is a link to my public archive where you will see more like this and in general deep wounds: https://t.me/+CyaY519JM1FlOGYx
I am not attention seeking, I am simply sharing the harm I've done to myself as it fits the flair
Do not ask me what I use to self harm or what techniques I use and do not romanticize or glorify my harm
