the best thing to do is just talk to your friend...ask her whats wrong and just be there...people who cut themselves are often going through a really tough time either with family, friends, school..etc...but be a good friend and confrot her and just be there for her.

I've been there and usually when a person starts to hurt them selves and has a rough time they just need a friend or some one to talk to. Talk to your friend about her problems and help her stop before she gets addicted and trust me its not hard. Just be there for her and show her you care. x0

Ok. This is a very difficult situation. You are very stuck because you dont know whether to tell someone or just try to help her. First of all you should talk to her about it. Dont do all the talking though, you should pretty much just listen. She obviously has problems and her cutting her wrist is just a way to tell people that she wants to talk or that she needs immediate help. Something pretty serious must be bothering her, so you need to be there for her and talk. Ask her if she needs help with anythingor ask her if theres anything that you can do to make her life eaiser. Who knows, it may only take you to stop her problems. If the problem persist then you should definatley find her some help. I would go to a counselor. That wont put so much pressure on her~ maybe she needs to talk to a counselor. She needs help one way or the other; dont ignore this situation.. no matter what your friend says, she really WANTS help.

i had a friend who cut herself too. im not as close with her as i used to be, but i tried to help her through her bad time. i suggest not acting like you understand why she did it, but ive read that people do it because they like that they can control their physical pain, because they have alot of emotional pain that they cant control. youre probably going to have to have a serious talk with your friend. she showed you her scars, so she obviously wants your help, she realises that what shes doing is wrong. maybe suggest rubber band snapping instead of cutting, ive heard that works.
hope this is help <33

I would definitely tell someone about the person that cuts their wrists. That is very dangerous and you'd actually be helping your friend or whoever if you did tell someone!

ahh. slitting the wrists..been there, done that..wasnt all that fun of a time..well telling everyone in the world isnt a great idea (which you just did)..because then people will look at her with either pity or as a freak..go to a counselor though..the counselor is then forced to tell her parents by law..and just be a good friend to her..i think that what she really needs right now ;-)

Talk to her. But especially listen to her! Listen to all her problems in her life that's making her want to cut. Just be there for her and let her know that you love her no matter what!
♥ Always,

talk to her and tell her that it's not good for her...maybe get into something deeper and figure out why she cut her wrist...try to make her stop.

I would definately tell someone. You could tell her parents yourself. Or maybe you could tell a teacher, or guidance counselor, and they can contact her parents if you don't want to. But you don't want to let her get any worse. Also, try being there for her. If she ever wants to vent on you, try letting her. And try telling her how much you care, and how much others care. Goodluck, and you're doing the right thing by wanting to help her!
Hope I helped!

Not ask stupid teens on an advice site who cut their wrists.
Tell a teacher of counselor. Tard. You should have doen that quite some time ago.

well, tell them you aren't mad at them...but also tell them they are hurting themselves and it's there choice to hurt themselves.
