well i can't help you with the first question, since i cut myself with safety pins and that doesn't involve any veins or anything...you just sorta "carve" your skin until it bleeds...*shrug* i've found it hurts more and works better for me... but with the 2nd question, if you have a dog or a cat you can say you got scratched by them. or if you play a sport, say it happened then...or say that you were just messing around and rubbed up against something that cut you... but what i do is wear something over my wrist, like a wristband or bandana, that way i don't have to come up with excuses... hope i helped ps-you really should try to stop while you can though...i've been doing it for only like 5 months and i'm already addicted basically, i can't stop....and i know that which is why i'm trying to get help...so b/c i know exactly what you're going through, i'm suggesting you tell someone, a friend or someone like that. good luck and God bless
