Hi there,

I think one of the most important things to do is make sure you keep the cuts clean, so do make sure they stay clean. For added protection you can apply something such as Neosporin or Bacitracin, which is an antibiotic ointment. You can put a Band-AID on it for like a day or two but I heard that after it begins to heal it's best to let the air get at it.

Once the wounds have healed over you can use something that may reduce the appearance of scars, such as bio-oil, vitamin E, or cocoa butter.

But, of course, it's best to try and find other ways to deal with the things that are going on in your life besides through self harm, or you'll end up with regrets. Also, cutting doesn't really solve any of your problems but makes it worse when you have to worry about hiding or worrying about infection. These are healthier, safer ways to cope so you won't have to worry about hiding anymore.

It may also help you to get support for some of the things going on. For example, I bet your friends and family have ways to deal with breakups, either from experience or just their knowledge. Or, you can speak to someone like a guidance counselor.

You can do this!
