Spydre
My name… well… pseudonym anyway, is Spydre. I am 16 and have been cutting for 3 years, and self-injuring for all of my life. I had these pictures taken today and I would like to contribute them to the site to help anyone else. This site has been a life saver for me and a source of strength.
This is my left hip. They are the initials DC and they stand for Doron Chan, a graduate of my high school who was killed in Iraq last week, he was the second son of my small town to be lost. He was 20 years old and studying to be an engineer. This is my tribute to him.
I have too many cuts and scars on my stomach to count. You cannot see them very well here but they overlap eachother so much that you can barely find a tiny piece of unbroken skin. I mostly cut there because then I can wear a tankini bathing suit without anyone seeing the marks.
Strength and love to everyone who is struggling with SI or knows someone who is. My thoughts are with you. Be strong, be safe.
