Well anyway I allow this to be a coping method every morning because when I SI, I like to feel the pain and get that sort of release. Sooo what I have done is bought some of that really expensive aftershave (Lynx, lurvely!) and after having a nice shave, just slap a nice big handful of that aftershave over my face. It really stings hard, but only for a split second, and it's that which I sort of use as my moment of real "pain" but at the same time I get to have a nice smooth face and great fragrance in the process

It also helps me get in a routine of shaving so stop my hairs overgrowing

N.B. If you are triggered by razors, then I guess this isn't for you, but I guess this all depends on how you approach coping methods I guess. This is just another one of hundreds of ideas and if one person uses it (even if it's just me) then it's good enough for me
