I need some places to SI (trigger)

Ive been cutting myself on my left hip and right hip, i cant cut any more on there as its just a criss cross of red and black lines now.
I have resorted to cutting on my left forearm, i dont want to do it there cos the scars will probably still be there by summer.

Im asking does anyone else have any discrete places which i could cut?
Sorry if it was triggering =(

no matter where you cut there is always going to be scars. I am not a person to recommend to someone where they should cut.

I don't believe this is the place to ask for advice on this subject...if you are running out of places to cut, you should probably find a way to stop doing it that works for you.... :\ good luck xoxo.

Im not going to tell you where to cut but I will tell you where not to cut! Stay away from your arms there are loads of blood vessels and bleed alot, dont cut your chest again masses of bleeding occurs, DOnt cut your legs unless you want to be in so much pain every time you move.

In my opinion maybe you should try to hold off finding a "new" place to cut! its not easy I know but its also not fair on you to walk around covered in scars! I have scars on my hands legs feed chest stomach oh my arms :( Put it this way if seeing scars would put you off cutting i would make sure everyone who cut saw them! My body is disigured terribly."

Well, this place isn't the best place to ask. ^^;; We're all here for you, which is why we all are going to just ask you to stop, instead of giving you new ideas on where to cut. Good luck with not cutting!
