wat is a way to realize emotional pain without cutting ur self?! please help me, my frin cuts & idk wat 2 do?


Question:
her mom makes her so made she doesnt kno wat else to do..its so sad!! please help me!

Answers:
First talk to her about how it upsets you. Then if she can't do anything else, tell her you'll tell her mom but you guys can do it together or tell her she should tell her. or any other person she might trust, but has authority. Be careful to tell her how much you care about her and that if she keeps going in that direction, what if one day the cut is too deep and she's gone for good? Talk, listen, and support her in getting help. She will need it!

Other Answers:
She needs therapy. Talk to a Dr or a counselor at school. She has anger and depression issues.

hey, the other day a heap of people just came up to me and told me i had depression. I am not a very happy person because there's nothiing in my life that makes me happy ..emotional pain is hard and it may take long time to heal tell her to get over it ..they should be away off people sometime ..always tell her that she's not mistaken and try to make her feel good.she shouldnt care about people


This girl needs help. This is a very serious problem. Maybe you should talk to your counsler at school about this and he/she can advise you on what to do for your friend..or you could confide in an adult that you trust.


your friend needs to talk to a therapist. something or someone has hurt her some point in her life, and she needs to get the pain out some way. please see she gets some help. I will pray for you and your friend!

Self-Mutalation is often a sign of persaonlity disorder: boarderline personality disorder if not, It is a maladaptive coping mechanism, She does it in response to anxiety. She may need problem-solving conseling.

She needs to go to therapy, in therapy the goal will be to develope a more effective stragey for avoiding and coping with interpersonal stress, loniliness, and anxiety. If her mom is causing this maybe family counseling is better. There must be 4 or 5 teenagers on this site that cut themselves. I'm answering this questiong again- maybe I should copy this for the next one.

There are a few different reasons a person cuts. One is for self punishment. Find out what they think they've done that's so bad, and find other ways to atone for it.

Suppressed memories, to suppress the pain they can't deal with- will leave a person feeling nothing. Cutting reminds them to feel.

And depression can leave a person feeling empty, thus cutting reminds them they are alive.

No matter what the reason, they need therapy and from someone who knows what they are doing. I hate to say this but a well intentioned friend can make it worse if you say the wrong thing to them. I'd direct them to a professional.

You can call the following organizations for information about 24 hour crisis services:

The National Hopeline Network’s 1-800-SUICIDE (784-2433) hotline connects you with a crisis center in your area. Many crisis centers can assist you in finding treatment services in your community.

Child-Help USA 1-800-422-4453 crisis line assists both child and adult survivors of abuse, including sexual abuse. The hotline, staffed by mental health professionals, also provides treatment referrals.

The National Strategy for Suicide Prevention's crisis hotline, 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255) can put you into contact with your local crisis center.

I got their numbers from the NMHA website. Please urge your friend to call one of them. The middle one is where I'd start.

And thank you for being her friend. She's lucky to have you. You did the right thing asking. Turn it into art. See how here.
