Be strong! Try saying these 5 words to a counselor at school, parent, or trusted adult: "please help me stop cutting". Or print this page out and give it to someone who loves you. It's ok to go to the hospital. You can do this!

That's awful:-( But at least you're trying - that's so important and brave - and if you keep resisting, then you'll have less cuts and be more likely to wear your short sleeves again soon. Have you told anyone? Do you feel your anxiety would be lessened by telling someone you love about your cutting, so you don't have to hide with them? Have you tried other coping mechanisms, like the elastic band? I suppose the most important thing is just to remember that it will get better, as long as you don't cut.
As for the hospital thing... do what needs to be done. And I'm sure the rescue centre will never give up on you, even if it seems that way. There is always, always someone out there who cares.
If you ever want someone to talk to who's in the same boat, you can private message me. I cut too and have to cover up, so I know how frustrating it can be and how paranoid you can easily become.
