Thursday nights I relapsed after 10 months. My dad was treating my like a little child and even called me names, I'm doing bad in school right now, I'm super stressed, and because of a hurt shoulder I'm out of volleyball which was my release. I cut up my ankle and foot. I'm really angry and ashamed of myself, but what I'm afraid of is Monday. I go to a really small school and Monday we are supposed to wear nice clothes because the bishop is coming, however we're not allowed to have more than one piece of jewelry per limb. I don't know how I'm going to hide my ankle without my normal crew socks. Any suggestions.

ok, as this cut is somewhat fresh, i don't know how far the healing has gone as of now, but for old scars, use makeup. If your cuts have already closed up, so that you can't see the red, then MAYBE you could use make up. buuut if it isn't wrap it up, and say that a cat or something clawed your leg.

The cut hans't closed all the way yet. I could try wrapping it. Im just afraid it won't last the whole day. Thanks for the advice

Maybe some kind of pantyhose? Other than that a bandage is all I can think of. If I saw a cut ankle though, I don't know I'd guess self harm. It's pretty easy to accidentally scratch/cut your ankle on some kind of bush or whatever in the summer time.

10 months is amazing. And you can do it again, relapsing is normal just stay strong you can do it :hug:
As for hidding them if they haven't close yet use bandage when you get there you can say 'You wont belive it a damn cat clawed me!'.
