Covering self harm with jewellery/similar?

Hi there

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for this. I have a couple of quite bad self harm scars on my forearm. I really hate them and want to cover them up. In the winter, it's ok, I can just wear cardigans, but obviously it's not really great in the summertime.

I've seen a couple of things I could wear, but nothing in particular that really jumps out at me. I'm thinking some sort of metal cuff, but one that actually covers right round to the inside, most only cover the outside of the arm, if you see what I mean.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

QueenLaQueefer - if the Gp is involved in treating you for depression I doubt asking for a referral to cover old scars would cause SS to be involved, as the depression is current for you and Gp not involved SS for that. Self-harm is just a not so good coping mechanism, and the treatment you are getting should mean it doesn't come back (well that is the flannel you can tell dr even if not true!) - yes, youth has a lot to answer for.
