Discussion Thoughts on using fire (so stuff like matches, lighters, etc) to sh?

I'm just curious as to what you guys think on the subject

I would heat up metal or put cigs out on me. Burns heal alot slower and it's a longer pain.
Sorry see your new here. Be careful it's an addicting behavior. Always have antibiotic creams and bandages. Sorry your feeling like sh. I'm a few months clean. It's hard to deal with. Hope you feel better.

The phosphorus in the heads of the matches can cause severe injuries.

Big fan of burning here. I started with eraser burns and graduated to cigarettes after I became a smoker. The wounds are a real mess to clean up, gauze and bandages tend to stick to the scabs during the healing process. The scars last a loooong time so you can't do it in the same spot very much, but with cigarettes I can give myself dozens of burns at a time. Eraser burns are very slow and painful and take a lot of effort, but they require no fire.

Doubt any of this was helpful, but those are my thoughts. Take care.

Thanks. I've been trying, I was clean for a while but recently I've just been feeling shit a lot of the time and saw that I had a lighter and gave it a try. Definitely hurts more than cuts but didn't leave any marks. I doubt it will happen again/I hope I don't feel the need to do it again.

i really hate it cause i'm not a huge fan of blisters and things like that, the pain is different from cutting and its not very enjoyable imo

i did a little bit of self harm with a lighter, it was so painful for days, the skin stuck to my pants and peeled off.
