So I've been cutting myself for a while now, but I'm starting to run out of space on my forearms. I'm going to need more space, but I just want the pain, I don't want to kill myself or cause any permanent muscle damage if I can help it.
Does anyone know where the "safest" places would be to continue this habit? I've tried asking in more appropriate places, but most self-harm forums assume you want to get "better", and refuse to advise.

Your throat :)

Dubs confirm truth, will try it out, thanks cockbite.
Etxernal parte of the thigh. Not too deep or you risk to ruin the muscle, it must be a dermal cut.
Scars will remain.
Aside from this, if you really just want to feel pain, don't cut as it carries many risks (infections, blood loss, etc)
Go for other methods, like hands in freezing water (don't wait for them to turn blue, that's permanent nerve damage).
Alternatively go for boiling water. Very nasty scars will remain. Much uglier than cut scars. May prevent sex.
Other methods with permanent damage are bone crushing and ball hitting.
Skin pinching should be fine.
Lastly, there is no logical reason to do it.
Given the amount of knowledge I just gave you I should know.
Good luck.

if you just want the pain, try thwacking yourself on the arms or legs with a piece of wire coathanger or something similar. I used to use one of those metal cooking skewers. it still smarts a lot, it doesn't leave scars, and if someone sees the welts, you can give them a dirty look and tell them that your sex life is your business. just don't use something rusty, you don't want tetanus. also if you give yourself too many big bruises, you run the risk of clots getting into your bloodstream, which is bad news. so watch that. with a little practice you can figure out how to inflict pain without leaving a lot of marks.
that being said, I hope you are getting help. I have struggled with self-harm for years, and there are times I triumph over it and other times when it just doesn't seem worthwhile to even fight it.

Thanks for the advice.
What can I say? I'm not a very logical person.

The marks don't really bother me, they're just a pain to cut over, it ruins my tally.
I understand and appreciate your concern, but I don't want help. As far as I'm concerned what I'm doing is necessary and right. I've never quite understood the stigma against self-harm.
Upper thigh is a good spot.

Your body doesn't deserve you inhabiting it. Have some respect for it you twat
Start picking your skin and ripping out hair. Pretty convenient way of selfharm
