Long sleeves, pants. I usually cut/burn my thighs and arms, that way I can hide it if I want. Sometimes, I don't give a damn what anybody thinks and parade around "showing off" my cuts and burns. People look at me funny and talk about me behind my back, but that's just one more way to hide it for me.

No one has ever seen my marks, they are on my arm, and hide them by wearing long sleeves all the time. Literally no t-shirts/ 3/4 sleeve tops. and as for swimming well im kinda screwed. Dont normally go swimming only if i go away, and i havent SH for a year yet, so havent had to deal with that yet. But terrified of it, i love swimming/beach.
The only time i roll up my sleeves is if i am alone and its fine then, its nice so that the material isnt uncomfortable on my cuts/ it might be hot/ its nice just to not have to wear long sleeves.
