Here is some treatments i found from this webpage:
http://wso.williams.edu/~atimofey/self_mutilation/Treatment/index.html
Treatment:
Treatment for self-mutilating patients takes a number of different forms. A combination of treatments may provide the most effective manner to treat this disease. A variety of treatments are described below:
Self-Help Books:
Psychologists such as Dr. Alderman publish books with exercises designed to help self-mutilators overcome the need to harm. The books involve writing exercises that help them understand why they injure themselves and the results of their behavior, such as scarring and social isolation. The people are asked to consider their motivation to self-mutilate, and its positive and negative consequences.
Medical Treatment:
Effective medical treatment should involve a combination of psychotherapy and possibly medication. An effective therapist will help an individual identify the feelings and emotions associated with self-mutilation. Furthermore, therapy should focus on learning to use positive behaviors as an alternative to self-mutilation.
Although there is no specific drug of choice to treat self-mutilation, medications that alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and sleep-impairment are often popular. Preliminary research has found decreased serotonergic activity in self-mutilators, and hence selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors such as fluoxetine and sertraline are often used.
SAFE Program:
Self-Abuse Finally Ends is a program located in Berwyn, Illinois. SAFE involves self-mutilators enrolling themselves in the program, and adhering to several ground rules.
Patients:
-must have a "heartfelt motivation to stop"
-have the right to voluntarily withdraw at any time
-must sign a "no-self-harm contract" before being admitted to the program
-are discouraged from exhibiting or discussing scars with other patients to prevent contagion
-must refer to their behavior as self-injury to control "war stories"
-must complete written assignments that focus on the negative consequences of self-injury and the benefits of staying free of self-harm
-are expected to develop and practice at least five alternatives to self-mutilation
Imagery
A new therapy uses psychophysiological responses to an image or memory of an event to simulate responses experienced during the actual execution of self-mutilation. The content of guided imagery has been demonstrated to effect the psychophysiological response. Through imagery, people can experience the relief of self-mutilation without actually performing the act on themselves.

I just started going out with this guy on sunday, and I really like him, and he likes me etc. But there are a lot of people that don't want us together, and he has been living with me secretly and a bunch of stuff. Our relationship has its ups and downs, like all relationships do, but I just can't get some of these things I hear about him out of my head. He's kind of a runaway right now, but he really is a nice guy. I'm not sure what I'm asking, but I really do need help. So please, anyone. By the way 14/f. (link)
|
honestly don't listen to what other people say if you like him and you want to be with him it shouldn't matter what anyone else says! don't listen to what other people say, it's your relationship not theirs! happy holidays!

WeLL!Every guy that I get close too ends up hurting me in the end, so I have a major trusting issue with ppl. I dont even trust some of my best friends anymore just bc they have hurt me and talked about me behind my back. I am not sure who to trust. I go to school with my ex bf who hates me but he is one of the very few ppl I trust still. he has hurt me in the past but I have always been able to trust him. I cant talk to him bc he hates me but I really need to talk to him. What do I do? (link)
|
be honest with him and tell him that you seriously NEED to talk to him. If he refuses then tell him to stop being so immature and act like an adult for just a couple of minutes!
Happy Holidays!

I have the two bestest friends in the world.but they've known each other longer then they've known me.and I feel like the third wheel.should I tell them that they should include me more on things or not?help. (link)
|
yes you should! but maybe your not being included because you don't involve yourself in the conversations that they have! be more active invite them over your house or go to the movies and if that doesn't work then talk to them and tell them how you feel!! Happy Holidays
