If the wound isn't too deep then it probably won't scar.Â
Why don't you put a elastic band on your wrist on days you are feeling a little on edge or vulnerable. Sometimes pinging on the band can distract us from a thought that was maybe a little distressing. Some people find the snapping sound and the little sting is enough to stop the action of self harm.
Please don't worry. If the wound is deep them I must advise that you go to A+E.
Don't suffer alone. We all feel frustration and fear with depression/anxiety and we all have coping mechanisms. Harming yourself was done out of frustration to distract yourself from the pain in your head.
You don't need me to tell you not to do it again as the fact you posted here means you know that it was the wrong thing yo do.
We are here for you sugar. Don't ever think you have to be alone with your thoughts and feelings because we are here and we understand xx

Because you don't know why you did this is the exact reason why you need to address it. Â If you're not bleeding heavily and it can heal on it's own, I'd set up an appt with either your GP or a psych doc to determine your situation. Â You could suffer from severe depression even though you may not feel depressed, it still is a possibility.
Also, with self cutting you run the chance of contracting HepC from dirty items you cut yourself with. Â You do not want to contract HepC!!! Â So with all this said and with what the other's said, seek some help. Â Even if it's an isolate situation. Â It could lead to many more in the future. Â You need to find out the reasons why you're doing this destructive act.
Warm regards,
Frustrated
