I accidentally cut my face

so here it is… I am really pissed off right now already cause I clean the skin of my face with nail scissors… you imagine? nail scissors… I think ive made two new scars couple of days ago. I am fed up!!! My mom says that its the last beautiful thing that I have on me, my skin on my face… and ive ruined it… I am fat, I have no muscles cause I live in my bed since 17 years, soon ill be a monster wow… one of my friends told in my back already that men dont like me cause I am a bit ugly, yeah… whatever, I can overcome this but ive already ruined my skin, its terrible!!! and I dont even speak about sz right now cause mine is hell… ive really gone in my family through something too much for a human being I find. Did you knew the self mutilation? I think it will stop one day for me but the damages are here already… I wish one of my scars will go away, its small but its in the middle of my forehead and its deep… I hate myself for this!!!

If this is recent, go to your doctor and get a cream for it.

My dad had extensive surgery on his face for cancer and after he used this special prescription cream, you can’t see the scars anymore.

ok, thanks twinklestars. But its not like a surgery scar. I think that the surgery scars are not in a depth isn’t it? this one became like a dilated pore you know… pfff. its in depth. gosh, I had the best skin ever decades ago… I never had serious acne and I made my skin look like I had it…

I pick scabs and hit my self very hard on the head. I am covered in scars. I don’t pick as much anymore thankfully but neosporan helps with wounds.

If it’s not that bad maybe neosporin will do it. It works pretty good. You gotta not pick it though.

I am afraid that the scars in depth are harder to treat like dilated pores for example…its in depth you see, twinkle?

I had hundreds of self inflicted scars on my arms, hands and face.
They all pretty much healed and the tiny scars on my face have basically vanished Thank God!

@Anna1 Go see your doctor immediately.
Cutting your face is an absolute No Go!
You may have to be Hospitalized - it’s OK.

I found when I used to tare my skin with my nails that I was, without knowing it, acting like my father did when he was my age. Do you have any family that might have done things like self mutilation when they were your age?

pfff wave, I was hospitalized 6 times with no effect. I am just cleaning my pores like this, its not such a deal. I know its no good but I dont want to go in a hospital for dilated pores you see. I am fed up by all the pdocs…
twinkle, ill show you a photo in private

Oh I’m sorry @Anna1
I misunderstood you.
I didn’t know that you were cleaning your pores!
I thought that you were Cutting.

yeah, I always clean a bit too much my pores but the last time ive done it harder and that’s why I have two new scars I think… its still compulsive in my case, its a symptom but gosh its dumb…

You can buy special cream that helps fade scars away.
A doctor can even prescribe it.

Well then why did you call it self mutilation? That implies aggression to me.

ok sorry, ill change the title if I can. but its still a bit aggressive what I do cause sometimes I clean a clean skin in fact…

@Anna1 I had to unlist this, because I worry it will encourage other people to harm themselves. Since you weren’t actually talking about self-mutilation, I can relist it with a different title for you. How about “I accidentally cut my face”

ok, no problem. my post was just about my compulsive behavior of cleaning my skin of the face… I wanted in a way the opinion of the girls…but yeah, its often compulsive in my case, its still a symptom… call it as you wish ninjastar :).

There you go! I strongly suggest you stop cleaning your pores with nail clippers. Just use facial cleansers or pore strips.

They also make a tool specifically for blackhead removal.

It’s inportant not to be too aggressive with that too, but it’s less likely to injure you.
