wow. i didn't realize how artistic they are sometimes. i usually scratch myself in random places on my arm and they usually look like ordinary accidents or whatever. some people cut words into their skin, which is something i wasn't aware of. i've been researching a lot about it too. it makes me depressed sometimes, but i've found some reasons behind my cutting and scratching myself...like why i do it and what causes me to do it and stuff like that. thanks for the site.
