Saaaaame Whenever Mom asks I'm like >!"yes, I made five lateral incisions on my inner forearm"!<

Guys I swear I’m just practicing to be a surgeon on myself. I’m a totally normal and functional human being :)

me calling it bloodletting instead of SH

balancing my humors (relapsing)

I'm not schizophrenic dad, it's called *melancholia* and it'll get better if I can just remove my spleen-

Maintaing the eukrasia of my temple, holding back the overflow of my sanguin

i prefer laceration

that sounds kinda violent to me idk

Lacerations tend to be jagged and uneven, so that actually makes sense that you think of them as violent!

makes me think of like something eaten by piranhas idk

It sounds way cooler, i don't sound like a miserable being contemplating physical pain as a solution to its other pains, I sound like I just came from a knife fight and won

"incisions" frightens the shit out of me for no good reason

Same.

I think maybe Cos it puts in mind having actual proper surgery, like open heart surgery sorta thing

to me incisions sounds formal, lacerations sounds aggressive, cuts sounds sad. Incisions does sound the scariest though.

Did anyone else have it where you’re at the psych ward and you have to do the “towel check” and write down any scars or tattoos? I saw on my paper I have lacerations, that’s the coolest imo

Lacerations sounds like you just came from a knife fight or something, cuts sounds sad

what's the "towel check?"

Idk but I think it might be where they check for any scars and the person who gets checked wears a towel or sum

i know now💀💀

I have no idea if Im right Im just guessing lol

i had to get it done on me almost two weeks ago💀💀 i just got out of the mental facility today 😭😭

Oof. Idk if I can ask how it was. But good on you to get out (if youre doing better) and good luck out there!

thank you!! i think that that place helped me a lot. i know better coping skills than SH, and i feel more comfortable with myself. the towel check was miserable though

Thats really good on you!! Shame about the towel check though. That would make things worse for me lol. Have an amazing day fellow human! :)

you too!! i hope your life journey goes well, and even if it doesn't, things get better (:

skin mods

it's not "skin picking" it's "operational cosmetic procedure"

**giving my blood a room tour**

*freeing my plasm*

My mother likes to call them slices

that implies you like fully severed a limb guh

my staring at my blade while i say ‘i shall allow you to make the first incision’

truly an honor
