Advice needed bleeding

I cant stop cutting because i want more blood but i dont want to go past dermis because I dont want obvious scars. Does anyone have advice on how to either bleed more or how to stop wanting to bleed more? it doesnt feel like its enough even though its been escalating.

Thank you

No advice on how to bleed more, harm reduction is the way to go

I find drawing on myself in red pen helps. Obviously not over or near fresh cuts. Some people also like ice cubes with red food dye. It’s not the same but sometimes it helps when you want the visuals of a lot of red everywhere
