How do I cut...

how do I cut? usually I self-harm with drugs but I think it's not good for my transition (which is probably going to be a failure either way)

clean the blade with antiseptic and put antibiotic cream on the cut.
don't use toilet paper or anything similar on the cut because microscopic fibres will get into the cut and increase chance of infection. use a clean shirt to stop bleeding if you do not have anything more suitable.
put a bandaid on the cut to prevent debris from getting inside, especially if the cut is gaping.
if you hit fat [looks like little beans] then there is a high chance of infection and you need to go to the ER asap because they can only stitch it within 8 hours of it happening.
if you hit muscle go to the ER asap no excuses

Absolutely do not cut and do not start cutting

It's about as addictive as heroin, once you start self harming it's very difficult to stop

as someone who cuts sometimes, it's really not a great idea! i dont really even feel any better afterwards. it's an awful habit you should not be trying to pick up

all fantastic insight if you choose to make this stupid, stupid decision.

I used to be with a transgirl who would cut for me. We never got to meet, but I would make sure she lined them up and they were cute and neat. I would always tell her to press on the bandages to remind herself of me. I like the feeling that still to this day she has the scars on her arm and thinks of me sometimes. I never got to cut her myself, but I hope some day I can make memories with someone like that. Some day I'll have a fresh, pale canvas to leave my marks all over.

soooo don't clean tools and slap a bandaid over it? (two if it bleeds through the first)

hm, sounds like a lot could go wrong. thanks, though.
is it really worse than doing drugs though? i feel like this isn't going to take as much off my lifespan and idrc about the scars cause i look like shit anyways.
