Hi everyone! If you see this, please take a minute to read this & share!
My name is Selina, I'm 21 years old & from Germany.
I'm posting this cuz I'm trying to raise money to get my scars covered up. I don't really have many friends to share this with so I thought I'd just post this here.
Before anything else tho: Trigger warning for self-harm scars, depression & anxiety. Please stay safe & skip the next part. I'll mark when its safe to continue reading with 》《.
Background (short version since I don't wanna ramble too much): I've been struggling with depression & anxiety since I was 14 (most of my scars are also from this time period). I self-harmed for years. My left arm took most of that. At 21 years old, I don't anymore but I still hide my scars with long sleeves most of the time. I'm not ashamed I have them but I don't want people looking &/or asking questions.
I want to wear short sleeves again. I want to not worry about them. I want some freedom & confidence back.
》《
I know its a lot to ask but please share this & -if you can- donate. Even just small amounts would help a ton! Words can not begin to describe what this would mean for me.
(For anyone wondering "Why so much?": it will need to be a quite big tattoo, tattoos are expensive + tipping for the tattoo artist & travel costs [yes I will need to travel a few hours & maybe stay overnight for a tattoo artist that has experience with scar cover ups])
Again a little trigger warning for when you click the link: I used a picture of a scar cover up by the wonderful & talented @/poppysmallhandstattoo (Instagram) to visualise what I'm trying to accomplish.
(The title is in german, but the description is in both english & german.)
