What can happen to you when you self-harm?

Answer 1

Just let me tell you from experience, please don'tdo it.

Anyway, the side effects of self harm are varied compared to what kind of self harm you are partaking in.

Generally side effects can be bruises/cuts which can be hard to hide.

In the long run deep cuts leave scars which are sometimes hard to hide.

Self harm also ruins your body, therefore making you less confident. For example even going to a beach could get ruined because you don't generally want people to see your scars/cuts/bruises.

Answer 2

You will get scars and marks that will last forever. I self harmed 7 years ago and still have my scars. if you cut and you cut too deep you could bleed out and die. it can become an addiction fast.
