It's a beautiful picture. I can still remember the days when I tried to find places where no-one would see... like indeed my upper legs. Luckily, that is far in the past now. The scars remain and for that, I wish i'd have thought of the future. But I know that 15-year-old me would never have listened anyway.

this is a great message and just in response to earlier comments about self mutilation not being artsy. In school i studied a man named Mike Parr, he is a performance artist and he uses "self mutilation" as an art form to express his opinions on the treatment of refugees.
you should check him out its not mutilation horror movie style but non-the less its mutilation. like nailing his arm to a wall ( he only has one arm).

I have heard of him! In college we vaguely talked about him in Photography. It was something else... But it was powerful stuff.

I think this is a really good photo! I like the idea of it (well I don't think cutting is a great thing to do, but I hope you'll understand what I mean)

It was a bit of a shock to see this picture this morning, since after last night... that's just what my stomach looks like. Not as bad as there in the picture, but... yes.
It's good that you did this, hopefully it can raise awareness. I feel it's a misunderstood thing, self harm.

Hrmm. I'm a little more familiar with self-harm than I care to be.
Help is out there, for all of you who hurt yourselves. You don't need to feel so bad. There's no reason to hurt yourself, you're a beautiful human being. c:

This picture... the concept for it or behind it... bares so much truth and exposure. It reminded me.

I glad someone brought this up. I'm the only one of my friends who hasn't cut herself..It's hard to look at the scars on their arms.

Don't start. It is hard to see other people harming themselves, I just try to offer my support as much as possible.

I used to cut. I usually did it on my legs, but sometimes I cut my wrists. Luckily, back when I cut, I had a rabbit, she was very squirmish and tend to scratch me a lot as a baby anyways, so I always blamed her for arm cuts, of course, she never got in trouble for them. I have some lovely scars of her memory, and some awful ones from memory of depressions.
But I met Erik, this guy.. He turned my life around completely, we aren't seeing each other any more, but we're the best of friends. He helped me stop.

Heh beautiful photograph. Brought tears to my eyes.
I used to mainly cut my belly and legs but after a year it kinda got out of hand, and now there's scars everywhere. Not just cuts, burns, rips, stitches that shouldn't be there, things I shouldn't of eaten... meh
My girlfriend has helped me a lot through it, she's the reason I'm trying to stop. I want to give myself to her beautiful not scarred because I'm so stupid.
Also, to all of you out there.
Think of your scars as battle wounds, each one is proff you didn't loose the war.

I don't cut I bite. I bite the skin around my finger tips until they bleed, at no point is there not at least one finger with an open wound always.

I do that too, actually. It's yucky and hurts.
