My family and friends have been asking me about the scars on my arms, how can I hide self-harm scars from them?

You could try wearing long-sleeved clothing and layers to cover the scars, or accessories like hats and jackets that draw attention away from your arms. You can also talk to your family and friends about the scars in a relaxed setting and explain how you got them in order to help them understand. They might be understanding and supportive, or at least understand that you are comfortable discussing it with them.

You could try wearing long-sleeve shirts and clothing that covers your arms, or you could show them progressively as a way to open up the conversation and build trust. Alternatively, you could tell them that the scars are from a surgery you had or an injury you sustained.
