Help How to sh with a safety pin

[FoxSauce]

Can't deal with these emotions anymore. I need to sh but all I got is a safety pun. It is sharp but I dunno how to go along with it. Blades are so much easier but is all I got.

Thank you in advance

uhhh the best you can do is scratch yourself with it sometimes i use pins to make nice kitty scratches. but it's not gonna cut like a blade unless you wanna like... pierce yourself...?

I used to sh with pins all the time before I got my current blades. I usually just dug them into my skin and ripped them out. It's probably not going to bleed, but it'll hurt. It's also pretty easy to hide those wounds.

In my opinion, if you want to see the blood, using a pencil sharpener lead is better. it does not cut deep and it bleeds a lot. if you want to cut deep, there is a way to do: you have to only take the front and to put the back on your skin !

You don't :P
Dont wanna sound like I'm preaching but SH can and will quickly spiral into an awful addiction. If you're just starting out, please do not go down this path. Either way, I do have something to say about your question.

Spoiler: SH experiences

I've SH with a safety pin before, mostly just stabbing it into the skin. Hurts if you go deep enough. But not much blood. You can also scratch yourself with but it barely breaks the skin. I second @Jamylap on the pencil sharpener - its been my go-to tool for several years. Easy to handle, easy to hide, cuts deep, bleeds a lot. Even now, I prefer pencil sharpeners to my regular blades.

Is ok did try but didnt work. I dont have a blade atm. Knifes dont work for me.

So for now i just do it mentally

I crave it and need it.

Thank you for your suggestions tho

i think i know the feeling. i was once in the middle of the woods with the uncontrollable urge to sh and all i had was a safety pin. anyway, i'm sorry you're in such a bad spot, sh is a horrible addiction.
