Being passively suicidal is funny as fuck like yeah i don't plan on doing anything and knowing me i never will but the idea of a gun to my head sounds really fucking good right now.
I dont have money to pay the rent, I didn't get any reply from jobs where I applied, I'm about to end up without any place to stay, im in debt...but no one cares because there's still my sister who is better than me so I just get thrown away like trash that they won't even touch, but for her they would kick that trash so she could walk on a clean road. fucking pathetic
Ever wondered what this image means? Or just curious about the layers of skin on your body? And to make it worth your while I'll cover how to treat the wounds
First we have the epidermis which is also known as the 'Cat Scratch' layer. The Epidermis is also the outer Barrier which is the outermost layer of the skin. It acts as the body’s first line of defense against bacteria, viruses, UV rays, and dehydration.
Some key features of this layer are: made of stratified squamous epithelium, Avascular, (contains no blood vessels) Constantly regenerates every 28-40 days, Composed of five sublayers (from deepest to outermost): Stratum basale – where new skin cells are produced.
Stratum spinosum – strengthens skin through keratin production.
Stratum granulosum – cells start to die, forming a waterproof barrier.
Stratum lucidum – found only in thick skin (palms, soles).
Stratum corneum – layers of dead keratinized cells.
And finally the important cells of this layer: Keratinocytes (produce keratin)
Melanocytes (produce melanin for pigment)
Langerhans cells (immune response)
Merkel cells (touch sensation)
Next we have The Dermis also known as the Styro/foam layer
Beneath the epidermis lies the dermis, a thicker layer that provides strength and elasticity.
The structure of this layer is divided up into two regions: Papillary layer (upper): loose connective tissue, capillaries, and sensory neurons, and the Reticular layer (lower): dense connective tissue, collagen, and elastin fibers.
The function for these two layers Houses blood vessels, hair follicles, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and nerve endings. Thermoregulation, sensation, and wound healing happen here.
Now we have the 'Beans' layer which is called The Hypodermis (Subcutaneous Layer) The hypodermis, also known as the subcutaneous tissue, is the innermost layer of the skin, which is made of loose connective tissue and fat cells (adipocytes).
The functions of this layer Insulates the body and maintains core temperature, Cushions internal organs, Stores energy as fat, Connects skin to underlying muscles and bones.
Fun Fact:
The thickness of skin varies depending on the location—it's thickest on the palms and soles (up to 4 mm) and thinnest on the eyelids (around 0.5 mm).
Finally the Laffy Taffy and bedrock layers are simply muscle and bone. Now I'm going to move on to what everyone is waiting for and that is
what happens when each layer is cut and how to treat the wound
Cut to the Epidermis (Superficial Wound)
➤ What Happens:
Only the top layer of skin is damaged. Minimal bleeding or none at all. May sting or look red. Example: light scratch, razor nick.
➤ Healing & Treatment:
The body quickly begins regeneration of skin cells from the stratum basale.
Usually heals in 3–7 days without scarring.
Clean the area, apply antibiotic ointment, and bandage if needed.
Cut to the Dermis (Partial-Thickness Wound)
➤ What Happens: Bleeding occurs due to blood vessels in the dermis. Pain, redness, and inflammation. Possible exposure of nerve endings, causing sensitivity.
Example: deeper knife cuts, second-degree burns.
➤ Healing & Treatment:
May take 1–3 weeks depending on depth.
Wound must be kept clean and moist to prevent infection.
May require stitches, antibiotics, and regular dressing changes.
Skin may scar depending on healing and depth.
Cut to the Hypodermis (Full-Thickness Wound)
➤ What Happens: Deep wound cuts through all skin layers. Exposure of fat tissue; bleeding can be profuse. Risk of infection is higher.
Usually needs stitches or even surgical intervention.
May require tetanus shot or oral antibiotics.
Heals slower, and scarring is likely.
Cut into Muscle Tissue
➤ What Happens: Muscle fibers are damaged—can cause weakness, limited mobility, or muscle spasms.Deep bleeding, swelling, bruising.Risk of nerve or tendon damage if injury is severe.
➤ Healing & Treatment:
Requires stitches or even surgical repair if muscle is torn.
Long healing period (weeks to months).
May involve physical therapy to regain strength and function.
Pain management with medication.
Injury to the Bone (Open or Compound Fracture)
➤ What Happens: Bone is fractured and exposed through the skin. Extreme pain, bleeding, and high risk of infection. Can damage surrounding nerves, muscles, and vessels.
➤ Healing & Treatment:
Emergency medical care is critical.
Often requires surgery, including:
Bone realignment (reduction)
Metal rods, plates, or screws (internal fixation)
Antibiotics, wound care, and immobilization (cast or brace).
Healing may take 6–12 weeks or longer.
My final notes:
Always seek medical attention for deep wounds, uncontrollable bleeding, or exposed tissue.
Proper wound care prevents infection and supports faster recovery.
Healing varies based on age, health, nutrition, and injury type.
And always remember to take proper care of yourself <3
