I'd put a CW/TW for self-harm.. it's kinda blatant imo.

Nice tho.

And nice drawing.

Uh yes that is in fact a flawed but 1:1 drawing of my arm

hands are haaaaaaard

Somehow I didn't notice the scars

@Verdance are you okay?

And are you considering suicide?

Verdance, are you okay?

Been okay

reflecting on 2.25 month old mistakes

its supposed to communicate acceptance and peace, hence why the fingernails bother me more than the scars

Glad you're doing better

Thanks for sharing, this really resonated with me.

Anyway, I hope you're doing ok! I see my own scars as a permanent reminder of how far I've come since making them; I hope you can get to a similar point.

I know people throw this sort of invite around willy-nilly, but my DMs are open if you (or anyone else reading this) ever do need to vent/chat with a friendly ear who might understand some of what you're going through

Almost certainly unintentional, but the 'fingernails' part got to me too. I stopped cutting years ago, but moved onto substance abuse and suuuuuper destructive fingernail biting instead for a while.

Thank you, that means a lot to me!

I love it when people find their own interpretations of art that mean more to them than the original. It’s very inspiring that I can try and express something small for myself and someone else can find something incredibly profound in a detail that’s not that important to me. Really cool.
