my friend is really depressed right now, shes bleeding from cutting and i cant do anything she says. im leaving her alone right now cuz she swore if i came near her she would cut again. im scared for her and it makes me feel horrible cuz i do the same thing (cutting) i dont want to put anyone through this. she isnt bleeding really badly, its not a very deep cut but its long and almost runs the length of her whole thigh. it makes me want to do the same thing cuz it hurts me to see. is there anything anyone knows that i can do to stop her and myself?

darling, its ash. i think i know wat this is about, dont sweat it. its not that bad, the bleeding isnt so bad. u cant do that to urself again. its not ur fault hun, and i kno thats the hardest to hear, but it isnt. so dont blame urself, its not ur doing. she has to bleed to feel better and trying to stop her right now will only make her do it more. she only ever does it once so let her go. she will b ok, she always is. wen i see her, i'll talk to her. she is not ur responsibilty, dont try and fix her, just worry about urself,
its not ur fault, its not ur fault, its not ur fault.
id say it a million times, so dont feel bad, dont cut again. u cant break the promise u made to urself and me. dont. its not ur fault.
she'll b ok, we all will in time.
bargain not with the darkness in time it will take us all.

wow i thought i was going crazy!, it's so nice to know that someone else is feeling exactly the same. I'm in the same sitaution my closest friend cuts and then i feel blamed for it. She said basically the same thing to me, except her's was more along the lines if she talks to me then she'll some how end up in hospital because of it and then she threatens that she'll hang herself in hospital. it's so frustrating because i just want to be there for her because i care so deeply about her. The whole thing hurts, her blaming me when all i'm doing is trying to support her, seeing her hurt herself, knowing how much pain she is in. It's such a deep emotion that i didn't know what to do with it so because i know cutting works for her i contemplated it too. i stopped myself though but i understand exactly where you are coming from. Like i said it's nice to know i'm not alone and that there is someone else out there feeling this too. You are not alone.

tell someone, who is close to the person esp. a family member. the cut can be very dangerous, and can be a medical emergency. people who cut themselves sometimes do it because the cut itself is an escape mechanism, sometimes it serves as a self punishment. no matter, it is dangerous. there is help out there both with certain meds and social support. there's always light at the end of the tunnel, it's just hard to see it sometimes, get someone to help right away.

You're both going through some severe emotional pain. You need to find healthier ways to feel better. Try some professional counseling. Tell your guidance counselor in school that you do this, or tell your school nurse. They'll be able to help you get the help you need.
Tell your parents too.

Did you notice that you said you are broken? That means you can be fixed. Please seek help. it's not like you are in the pioneer days, this is 2006, there are so many people that can help. I know it is easier to ask on yahoo because you can be somewhat anonymous, but don't be afraid to tell someone you trust that you feel will help. They will understand and you are not alone, take care.

call 911 and get her some help. You think you are helping her by leaving her alone, but you aren't. You will never forgive yourself if she kills herself by cutting - she may hit an artery. Better to have her hate you and be alive then like you and be dead.

You need to tell an adult right away. Talk to your parents or a counselor at school. This is a serious problem that won't go away without treatment. It will only get worse.
