...

The skin around her nails is peeled back to where you can see blood, taste blood whenever her tongue touches
Her feet are hanging out from the protection of her comforter, leaving them exposed to the cold, she stubbed her toe earlier and split the tiniest one open, she keeps hitting it against the wall to make sure it still hurts
Tearing off layers from her chapped lips until they are red and swollen
There's a gash in her tongue where her sharp teeth bit down, she runs the wound back and forth over every tooth repeatedly

She has never touched a blade to her skin
The scars would be too recognizable
