Hello, i understand completly, not in your view but through your daughters view. I started cutting in grade 9 because of being depressed over boys and things. It just felt so good to cut. All of my pain was just gone . But then the next day it would all be back so id have to cut again. My parents eventually found out and i never got any help. It began to get worse. They thought i could jsut stop. You cant. If you cut u cant just stop u have to want to stop for yourself not fpr anyone else even if u love the person who wants u to stop. I then started doing drugs.. and beggining to cut every single day. And it then got wors like trying to commite suiside taking pills being the hospital twice, with needles in my arms and tests, and i didnt care i just kept doing it. I then finally asked for help. And i never got any..i got counceling but i bleieve there should be more help for self injurers it is an addiction and u dont really know what it is untill u actually go through it. Nobody can stop themselves. U need to get help. I tried but noone would ge tm e help. I still cut todauy and cant stop. I dont even know what to do myself. But i know what ur daughters going through. Dont let it get worse. She will regret it like i do. all the scars and memories jsut make me wanna do it more.

im a 16 year old girl....one of my x bfs always cut.....because of anger....but then hes call me and tell me whats wrong then hes telll me and i always ended making it worse casue id tell him its not worth it...soo by tellin the kids its not worth it or stop can make it worse......I KNOW OYU MIGHT NOT THINK THIS IS GOOD ADVICE COMMING FROM A 16 YEAR OLD... BUT GET IT FROM SOMEONE WHO WENT THROUGH ITS PERSPECTIVE....soo if you katch it before it gets too bad you can always try to stop it......i know they have medicne for it....casue i used to do it.....its a very disturbing thing to your child when they get older...
