I went through a period of self harming almost a year ago. I stopped after about 5 months after I realised what a mess I was making of my life and met some very supportive friends who had also self harmed before I met them.
I not have a lot of scars on my right wrist that, despite using creams, oils and patches are still very thick, purple and very visible which I usually cover with wristbands.
I've worked for 3 years towards a career in nursing and I want to go to university next year but I'm not sure if my scars will affect my application. Do I have to tell them? If I tell them of if they find out will it affect their decision much? (Although, I never went to a doctor and never needed to go to hospital so, thankfully it's not on my medical records.)
If I do get a place will I be able to cover them? Any help anyone can give will be gratefully recieved...
Thanks
