What to do if i cannot hide self harm scars from doctor during surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be glad: Be glad the doctor sees your scars, because then you can talk about them and get help for the suffering and behaviors leading to them. Be well. Specifically talk to the doctor about them, and ask for a referral to a psychologist and/or psychiatrist for this help. Be well.
