Summary: “I- I wasn’t trying to kill myself, Professor,” Harry said softly.
Snape glared at him, only slightly less cold than usual. “Then just what were you trying to do?”
“I was just going to… cut myself.”
Snape blinked and kept his eyes closed for a moment, rolling them as he opened them once more. “Obviously.”

So this was basically written as a coping mechanism for myself to try to prevent me from relapsing. I have struggled with self-harm since I was thirteen, and sometimes it seems like I'm doing really well and I've moved past it but then I'll see something that makes me think of it and I'll just crave it. I don't even know the last time I did it, but I have not done it once this year and I'm hoping to keep it that way. The sensible part of me is hoping for that, anyway.
Trigger warning for self-harm in the form of cutting and anything else you might feel uncomfortable with is listed in the tags.

Trigger warning: this chapter contains a self-harm scene. It is not overly graphic but it still exists so just keep that in mind. There is also talk of suicide.
