When my ex-girlfriend broke up with me this year, it was devastating. I turned to cutting to alleviate the pain. Now I have scars on my arm and I hate them because they remind me of the pain from the ending of the relationship and the friend I lost.
I usually like scars from cutting. I like the feel of fresh scars, the raise-up feeling. However, these make me really angry and sad. I maimed my body for someone who hurt me. So they will always be a part of me, more than I want them to be.

I know exactly what you mean! The others tell a story sort of but the ones that were meant for someone will always be with you and you will always know. The one I hate the most on my arm is the one you can see the most and it's because of my mom which I don't get along with at all and now for the rest of my life I'll be reminded of it. It's ironic though because it's scared the exact way all my moms scars are. It's the only one on my arm that's like that. Weird eh.

I hate them and love them, they've stopped me from doing so much, and they act as a trigger, yet they make me feel better, I can't explain it!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
