Hey guys I'm in pretty fucked up situation rn..

Yesterday I was calling w a guy because he asked me if he can see me cutting myself.. I wanted to be a show off and tried to go really deep. I realized I fucked up when I hit a vein. It first splurted out on my shirt and then it wouldn't stop bleeding while pulsing. I managed to make it stop in like 6ish minutes and wrapped it in gauze really tight.

I felt a little dizzy in the morning but now I'm fine. The cut is wide open and has one bean showing. I don't know how long to keep it under pressure, rn it has been like 20 hours since I had the blood slightly cut off from my hand. I unwrapped in now and that shit is itchy as hell. My hand feels REALLY cold and hurts when I move it too much.

It was slightly grey before I unwrapped it but it has returned to its normal colour.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT TO DO. Should I keep it wrapped tight or can I just leave it under a bandaid???

Edit: it was like in the middle of the forearm. Literally in a place where I normally hit beans so I don't know what happened :(((
