hi in 13f cuttter wore bracelts last year covered in cuts start gym in december must wear tee shirt marroon shorts makeup tricks help me please they made fun of me last year when they showed
To answer your question; one way to hide the scars would be to go to a sports store and buy wrist support cuffs. They go on like a glove and cover your wrists to give them added support. Many gymnasts use then.
The bigger problem is your cutting. Cutting is dangerous and is a sign of a deeper problem. Generally this is a sign you are under a lot of stress. Stress is the major cause of depression. Being 13 you should be in the full swing of puberty. Puberty brings on its on level of stress along with all the other stressors of becoming a teenager.
When I was your age, I'm now old enough to be your grandfather, our parents called this "being a phase we would grow out of." Most of us did. Today doctors know better and they can help you with the stress that is causing what is possibly what is now called "teenage depression." Which may be at the root of your cutting.
While I would like you to talk to your parents about your cutting and ask for help I can understand why you may be reluctant to do so. There are alternatives. You can speak with a trusted teacher, the health room nurse or your school principal.
In the mean time try this instead of cutting. Most people cut to feel something. Find a big fat rubber band and let it hang loosely around your wrist. When you feel the need to cut snap the rubber band against your wrist instead. Doing so should give you the same feeling that cutting does with these benefits. First it is much safer. Second you don't have to run off and hide while doing so. You can even do it in class.
What I have suggested is a common practice doctors suggest as an alternative while they treat you for whatever is causing you to cut. I urge you to: 1) Try my suggestion. 2) Speak with your parents or a trusted adult about your cutting. Whatever is causing you to cut can be made right. 3) IF you need someone to talk to in private I am here and you can do so in a private message. I will do my best to offer you the best advice I can.
