If you're still cutting then you have bigger problems than covering up scars. You need to stop cutting if you're still doing it. But if you're in recovery and have stopped then it's in the past and you don't need to be ashamed of the scars because you are no longer cutting.
Best wishes :).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
