exclusively putting cute children’s bandaids or ones with designs on your cuts or scrapes or burns… putting so many starface patches on your pimples and breakouts that you start to become a little scrapbook of self applied stickers… no matter how minor, i am indeed hurting and i desperately deserve this little luxury to heal and cope with the little pains of everyday life…!
a healing ritual, a salve, a potion brew.
have had an irritation bump on my bridge piercing for like, well over a month and have finALLY cracked the code, after weeks & weeks of treating it like a princess. everybody, the cure: a glob of betadine in the evening, a spritz of saline solution in the morn.
