I think you should stop cutting , thats probably the best solution. Its hard im sure, well i can't even imagine but you don't want more scars. Have your sleeves up hiding them is also not going to help, if anyone asks say that you are recovering , and you will be im sure some day. :) good luck

Well, as Austin said you should try to stop cutting, but we all know it's really hard. I think there was a thread where someone mentioned using coverup on the area with the scars. Then spraying the area with hairspray so the coverup stays. Also I forget what they're called but they're kind of like glove sleeves work well.

That's probably the most noticeable and telltale place to cut, which I am not suggesting you continue doing. However, as I know it can be very difficult to quit, if you feel like you have to do it and don't want anyone to see you should do it somewhere that you don't often expose, so not your forearms (legs?).

But honestly, if you feel like you can stop, do. You don't want this to become a long-lasting issue.

Arm warmers are great for covering your arms, but as the others have said, try to stop. I know it's hard, but it's so much easier in the long shot.
