Cutting


Question Posted Tuesday March 8 2005, 9:03 pm

I have these 3 best friends and I recently found out that they cut themselves. (they use to) 2 of them were really depressed, and the other one just follows around with the "crowd" she never leaves one of the other 2 sight. Anyway, when I found out, I was sort of "desturbed" you could say. The one who always follows evryone put it in her AIM profile.. as "slice and dice" I thought that was sick! People consider us as the "good girls" in our grade. I just don't know what to do.. the 2 who were depressed told their parents and got help, but the other one hasnt told anyone but some popular people at our school cuz she thought it was cool. They didn't want to tell me b/c one of my older friends committed sucicide and I said I was ready to hear what they ahd to say, but I wasnt. What do I do? Please help me figure this out! Thanks...

If any of your friends aint telling nobody, then you should tell someone about you friend and get them some help.

There must be quite the crowd of strange people at your school.Cutting yourself is not a cool thing.Maybe if enough of you would tell the follower this she will listen, but probably not.I'm glad the other two girls got help. The follower needs help too.Unless she is willing to admit she has a problem, or a parent steps in she will probably wind up in a morgue one day.If you guys are really concerned about it you need to tell an adult.She will probably hate you for awhile but hopefully after she gets help she will realize that you did it for her own good because you cared.

Well, the one whose following the crowd, get her out of that crowd by getting her parents involved, there is no good reason to let this go on. Don't warn her, you can try, but shes probably going to go to her mom first and be in serious denial, and she probably won't listen to you. If you care about her at ALL, then you will get her mother involved, and she will be upsetv with you, but at least she will not be leaving anymore sick away messages or "being cool."
