I went onto your instagram today. I hadnt seen posts in ages from you. I only found out today. I know you're shining bright above us all. I so hope youve found peace. I am crying and grieving and i never met you. You made such an impact on so many people. I hope you rest well. 💜
Okay, so to make sure all you lovely peeps are staying safe whilst self harming, here is a rundown on of all the most important tips for aftercare. TOOLS / BEFORE SH: So before you even start self harming (when you know you are going to do it), make sure that you NEVER use a tool that you found on the ground or scattered around in your room. Use a tool that is new, and that you can disinfect properly before use. If you are reusing tools then make to disinfect them after using it and place in a sealed airtight container to keep it as clean as possible. If you see rust or dirt on a tool then you shouldn't be using it for hurting yourself. Make sure to keep your vaccines up to date like tetanus because self harm increases the risk for various diseases When you dispose of your tools ( preferably after every use) then wrap them in toilet paper and tape to make sure that nobody else accidentally cuts them self. Make sure not to use glass or other items that could break whilst harming yourself because the last thing you need is to be operated on or having an infection because a shard or piece broke off and is now inside you. GENERAL CARE: Don't pick at scabs, I know it is tempting, but infections and sepsis are not cute. Don't harm yourself near joints and wrist, ankles, neck and head- keep a first aid kit with antibacterial cream, wound disinfect, regular disinfectant, bandages, Gauzes and plasters rule of thumb, a wound cannot (should not) be sutured / stapled after 6-12 hours because of higher chances of an infection are higher. the wound cannot push the bacteria out of the closed space causing an internal infection WHEN SHOULD I GO TO HOSPITAL? :the following indicators are not a foolproof ways of knowing if you need medical care, but they are maybe helpful to get a feel for when you need professional help If your wound doesn't stop bleeding after 10 mins whilst continually holding pressure on your ouchie then you should get medical attention If your wound is wider than 3-5mm then you should get medical care If you feel unsure of if you may need help If you don't feel mentally well and need to talk to someone CARE: All wounds should be disinfected before applying pressure using a sterile / clean gauze. Then using a bandage or plaster cover the wound. (yes even if you do need to get medical attention you should follow the steps above, so you don't get bacteria entering the wound on your journey to hospital.) If you don't have access to bandages etc, then sanitary towels work well as gauzes. a sock where you cut the toe bit off works well to hold the sanitary towel in place keep the wounds covered. Change your bandage etc daily. Use wound disinfectant to soften up the scabs so that minimal damage is done to the wound when removing the gauze, plaster or whatever you are using If you see sighns of infection or if you develop a fever, go to A&E take care of yourselves
i’ve “lost my life” to mental illness multiple times, and rebuilt… i’ve reached a point that i’m feeling tired of rebuilding knowing that it’s just going to come crumbling down again. i have been unable to work for going on 2 years. i tried going back to work (from home) a couple of months ago and it just overwhelmed me so much that i started having panic attacks or my mind would just shutdown a few minutes after sitting at the computer.
YT suggested me one of your vids and it reminded me the one year anniversary is coming up. I hope anyone who's here still for that same reason is keeping safe x
the longest ive been clean is only 2 months. i cant seem to get past that 1 week usually. though does anyone have aftercare tips? i never do anything and have realized i have a higher chance of it getting infected. i never even use bandaids, i just wipe it and leave it. i never have bandaids to use so is there any substitutes?
2 days clean. 4 years after i see this vid. Idk if you are gonna see this, way too late. I js wanted to say im proud of you. Thanks for sharing your story ❤
I've just found out Marie has passed that is extremely sad she helped me like crazy with her videos when I was going through a hard time 😢 I'm so very sorry for her family she's a beautiful light in the sky now love her ❤️ love to her family I'm sorry
when i went to childrens a&e about 6 weeks ago, i went to the front desk, my mum explained everything to them, and we were sat in the waiting room for about 25 minutes (this was like 11pm tho so it was probably quite quiet compared to other times) before i was triaged. When i got to triage, the nurse first asked me what i used, then assessed my arm and put a bandage on me. Then she asked me why i did it and if i had any plans to do anything further. After triage, i was put back in the waiting room for probably another half hour, before being moved to another waiting room for short stay, and i was there for around 45 minutes. I was then taken into a bay where a doctor assessed my arm again. She had to go check with a superior if i needed stitches or not and that took about 10 minutes. She came back again, bandaged my arm a second time, then asked my parents to leave so she could ask me questions directly. She went through a questionnaire about general mental health stuff, my relationship with my parents and my home life. she brought my parents back in and discussed options - they could send me home and give my mum a call in the morning to set up an appointment with the crisis team (it was too late in the evening, theyd all gone home), they could keep me for a few hours just for observation then send me home, or they could keep me overnight to wait for the crisis team. they decided to let me go home because i didnt have any plans to do anything further. the whole thing probably took a little over 2 hours in total. When i told my parents about it they were INSANELY angry and yelled at me a lot, but i managed to get a lot of help from the experience

If I'm honest as someone who has scars on their arms, it's true that it's often shocking, upsetting or unnatural for someone to see self harm/self injury scars on someone's body. So I feel like I can kind of understand why it would be upsetting or unpleasant for someone to see potentially very raised or red scars on someone's body even if they're healed, however having said that it's not an excuse to make hurtful, demeaning or abusive comments about someone's body because they have scars. I would say to anyone who wants to educate themselves or research more about self harm that it is a common and potential symptom of many mental health conditions so i would say its a symptom of an illness that we shouldnt shame people for
I am 13, and if my dad found out that i sh, forget it, he'd end me himself. Like, I dont go too deep, most of the time, but like... How would I get help though, my mom would throw me out of the house and my grandmother would end herself... ik nobody cares, but like... what do I do???
Do you have any friends or other family members that you can talk to? I know it is scary talking about that shit but you need to tell someone before it escalates further, you need to tell someone about this, remember that I love you , try your best❤
@Yourlocalpyhco thanks for supporting me, but no, I don't have any family or friends I can really talk to. I appreciate the help though, I hope you have a wonderful day, and if we never talk again, a wonderful life.
i’m too scared to tell someone. it’s almost like an addiction now, and last time i somewhat hinted at sh my parents called me psycho and called me a crazy person if i thought about hurting myself. :/
Watching this on a particularly rough mental health day and somehow that makes it so much more painful to know that you're no longer with us. Angel Marie 💜💜
marie we miss you. it’s so difficult to fathom that you are no longer here. if your life could have been measured by the life you breathed into others you would have lived forever.
