my normal sort of self harming means me taking non lethal doses of paracetamol. I want to do something that gets rid of the urge but doesn't cause a massive scene. thing is I also don't want the permanent scars that cutting leaves. I've thought about using my curling iron but im not sure if it'd eventually scar.

A curling iron would definitely scar.

I used to just hit myself on the arm or leg until there was a bruise. It hurts, there's no scar, and no chance of accidentally overdosing.

I always have self harmed by cutting and covered in scars, when that fails I take massive overdoses of anti depressants cos it makes me really I'll for days. They are trying to get me to use other methods and the other day did the face dunk in freezing cold water...only temporary but took the edge off. Not sure there is anyway to self harm safely

im not too worried about safety, its permanent visual damage that I don't want. I like the idea of bruising myself so maybe ill give that a go

It may sound weird but biting myself works. It makes a little mark but it should be gone by the next day. The only thing that lasted was a little bruise on my arm but a bruise doesn't look suspicious. I finally find some relief with it.
