You have a choice, keep watching your friend hurt himself, and risking serious injury or you can get him the help the needs. Your choice. If you want to get him help here is what I suggest, talk to his parents and tell them your concerns then they will probally take the steps that's needed to get help or you could do what your school normally tells you 2 do and go to the guidence counsler. Tell her why he says he does it and explain to her your worries, then she will talk to him.You probally think that he will be upset with you,but wouldn't you rather have him be healthy and alive then cutting himself ? This is a fact when people cut themselves they are at a high risk of cuting a main blood vessel,which leds to losing alot of blood and the end result could be death. Please get him the help he needs! I wish you the best of luck and don't get discouraged.

You need to tell someone. Either his parents, who can then get him help. If you don't think his parents will do anything notify an authority at your school. Even if he says he is not doing it because he is depressed he could still seriously injure himself.

if he's young then try talking to his parents. if you don't know his parents try talking to a counselor or teacher. he needs help, no matter what you say will not make him stop. try finding out the real reason he is doing it, i know some people cut themselves because it's like a high or they cut themselves to forget about some kind of pain.

Tell a grown up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is because of an underlying issue that he is not telling you.
Besides, it is not healthy, or normal.
If you are his true friend, you will do what is necessary to get this person some help.
Cutting yourself can lead to other destructive things.
We all know that self sabotaging behaviors are a cry for help

You tell someone a parent, a teacher or someone like that. If it costs your your friendship just think whats more important your friendship or him alive and healthy.

Does his immediate family know? Perhaps you could bring it to their attention.
