A dear friend shared with me an idea that involves wearing a rubber/elastic band around your wrist and pulling and letting it snap back, creating a sting as a substitute for using blades to damage your skin. Have you tried that?

Maybe try to get into something or somewhere like a activity. Or just stay away from sharp object like throwing away anything that cuts or you or have someone by your side when things like that happen.
I got it! Ask GOD in prayer without doubt and look to see what the LORD or how the LORD will get you out of it.
Did this help or the opposite?
GOD bless

I'm glad something worked at least. You have beautiful skin and it kills me to think that the very same skin is being damaged.

I used to do the same thing. But though I did cut, I was more addicted to the pain of hunger.
I think that one thing you can do is busy yourself with other things. I began to become absorbed in art and school and suddenly I was too busy to be worried/ depressed about myself all of the time. I think another thing that helped was God. He restored my self esteem and made me not want to damage what He created anymore. It's important to remember that your body doesn't belong to you anyway. I guess thats just one point of view that helped me along.
I hope you get the help you need and I'm sorry you're having so much trouble.

The truth is everyone can give you an idea of how to stop self infliction, but it will never work unless you first ask God to show you what is it that first started you down that lonely path. was it something that hapened with your mother as a child? was it a boyfriend that you culdnt let go of? was it the fact that maybe you always wanted to live up to everybody elses standards instead of flying free and living up to your own? once God reveals to you the root of the problem and He shines His glory light in that area the healing part is easy. God Bless
