It could be your girlfriend doing that to herself for attention. If it's not her, does she have any siblings? Are there problems at home?
Whatever this may be, you need to turn her in to somebody you trust so they can get her help. Someone's hurting her & you need to make sure they don't do that anymore. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]

Somebody who you trust will help. that way they can take care of it and it releaves the stress from you and she can get the help she needs. That way you and her will be better off.
