Whatever. I have enough personal stuff on reddit. DISCLAIMER: I don't recommend drinking, cutting, or suicide. I've seen five family members die in the past two years, one who was a suicide, and the misery you're putting on so many people is damn near guaranteed much worse than yours.

I used to cut myself a lot. Toward the end of a previous relationship, I felt the detachment and saw the end coming, so I started drinking a lot. Considered suicide because I was (am) a young jackass. Started cutting to "test the waters" of harming myself. Relationship ended, and cutting went overboard. The only thing that somehow saved me was that I was sleeping around a lot, but I got addicted to cutting.
Before this, I only cut sober (or hungover) , because the adrenaline was my vice. Then, I got into the pain and started cutting drunk. (Adrenaline doesn't kick in as much with alcohol, and drinking let me go deeper. All this equals more pain and bleeding) I went from my forearms, to my biceps (more hidden), to my ribs, to my inner thighs. I've been hospitalized twice, and lost a job because my injuries kept me from walking, and therefore having to call out too much. I even carved "pathetic" onto my calve once and hit my throat I the same night. Over the years, I found that autumn was the best time, because I could wear long sleeves until the scars went back to skin tone. Occasionally, a good tan will make them stand out, but I haven't gotten random comments since I stopped a couple of years ago.
However, my scars are still pretty obvious, and I dont own any shorts (I stopped swimming altogether), and not many short sleeve shirts.
I regret it like I couldn't even describe, and I can see it every time someone glances a moment too long at my arms.
All this considered, I wish I could still do it without the scars being visible to anyone except me. It's such a hard thing to begin, but i always end up covered in wounds and feeling like I just had the best sex of my life. It's just not practical any more.

If anyone else out there is like me, they would benefit from you pretending those scars don't even exist. It's goddamn shameful. I know it's not everyone, but be considerate, especially if they're old enough to not be pink. Keep the past in the past.
