Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
go to and authority figure, or a parent or someone anyone older can help her. if you go to her parents they will find ways to help their daughter, maybe-as much as she may deny it- she needs her parents right now. don't tell he your going to tell your parents just tell them, she may get mad but she'll thank you in the end, i know this i've done it before.

HI :-)
You seem like a good friend & I think you are in a position to help your friend lots because you used to cut and can understand your friends feelings.
Sometimes it is tough to know whether you should tell someone (if you did tell someone your school councillor or a youth leader would be the person to tell). Just remember self harm is different to sucide . It is still of concern though.
In my opinion if your friend is cutting but not sucidal you should not tell anyone because TRUST in a friendship is very important. However if your friend is seriously sucicidal there comes a point when you do need professional help & in this case, your friends life is of more value than keeping this a secret.
Maybe you can share with your friend how you were able to stop cutting. I think this will help alot.
I think the main thing you should do is just let your friend know that you are alwayz there for her.
Best wishes with deciding on what to do. Follow your heart.

I've never cut, but I do know that it helps with stress and helping you feel things. Suggest other things to her, like going someplace where it's really cold, instead. I always take off my jacket when it's cold and I feel like cutting or something like that, and then I feel better because it has the same effect. Try to get her to do it less often, or not as deep. If you see great patches of skin missing, or blood everywhere, if she has signs of bloodloss, then tell someone. Try to talk to her, help her through whatever she's going and try to get her to stop. Cutting isn't good, period.

Listen, I used to cut. I know you're concerned, but put yourself in her place. If you think she's suicidal, then talk to your school counselor or a trusted adult. Otherwise, leave it be. She'll stop eventually. Cutting has nothing to do with suicide- it's just a way of relieving stress. Personally, I see nothing wrong with it, but that's just me. If she's going to kill herself or she's leaving huge marks (like patches of skin gone), then yeah, get help. But if that's not happening, getting adults involved will just have a negative effect.

Well this is very bad. I know it is very hard not to tell because she dosn't want you to but its the right thing to do . You need to first talk to her about it and how you are going to tell someone. You should go to a person you know coudl help and you trust the most maybe a parent or someone older and that would be able to help her. She might get mad at you but int he end it will be worth it =] .. hope i have helped if not im me on juiciexobabe *
