Please, please go to an adult you trust!!!!! Your friend is in serious need of help! She needs counseling at the very least. She should see her doctor who can refer her to the appropriate people. Many people say that if a person talks about doing something like cutting herself or hurting someone they won't really do it, but that isn't always true. Talk to an adult, maybe your Mom or your pastor, or the principal of your school. Someone with authority needs to intervene in this situation!!!
Please know that your friend may get upset with you now - but after the crisis is over, she will know you have saved her. Thank you for caring.

Usually people cut out of depression. It isn't usually an attempt at suicide, but it can escalate to that or lead to it indirectly through accidentally severing an artery or infection. Most " cutters" need mental release from depression and they find it through the release of endorphins that pain brings about. As terrible as it sounds... It actually makes them feel better physically for awhile and gives a relief from the depression that sometimes overwhelms them. I don't know if your friend is cutting because of depression or if she has gotten caught up in some group of friends who are experimenting with this, like some one else might play with drugs. Either way, how sad that she is harming herself like that. It's obviously hard on you to bear seeing this. I hope you will tell her that and how much it hurts you to see her do this to herself. Make sure she knows she is responsible for bringing this pain to you as well,because you care for her. There are some very good techniques for achieving pain in a non-harmful way.... such as sinking the hands in a bowl of ice. Maybe she already knows of these from the help she is getting and chooses not to use them, I'm not sure. But you could suggest she first contact you before she gets to the point of cutting, so that you can talk to her about it and if she can't or won't do that, ask if she would please consider some safer alternative. Knowing you care and that it pains you when she causes herself pain is probably one of the best things you can do as her friend. She is lucky to have someone like you in her life and I hope she realizes this soon. I will remember you both in my prayers and hope that she will find a better way to cope very soon!

Do you want to help her? If so, then here's what you do. 1. You tell an authority about what she's said and threatened to do. 2. Talk to her and try and help her with her anger issues. (The first step to fixing a problem is admitting it's there.) 3. If she decides to hate you, stick with friends and watch your back. This is what a true friend would do. If you truely care about her, then you will tell someone that can really help her. If you only care a little, then talk and talk and talk to her, but, trust me, usually that doesn't do much in the long run. Good luck!

Sounds like you need to tell her to go to anger management class. If you think she is serious I hope you talk her out of it or you will be an accessory to the crime. I am sure the teacher has family who loves her as well. She probably has a low self esteem and may need you to turn in the right direction. good Luck.

wow that is tough you really need to speak with someone about this its serious she needs help but let her know that whatever she is going through you are there to help her at anytime maybe its problems at home? school? realtionships? try talking to her and talking to an adult that she truly respects and have them talk to her but be there for her cuz the worst is her commiting sucide and that is not what anybody wants good luck and your a goodfriend

Please talk to a counselor or a teacher or your parents. Someone. This may only be a threat but how would you feel if it actually happened and you didn't say anything. You may feel you are snitching on her but she needs help. The anger she has is not healthy. Please get her the help she needs by talking to someone other than her.

Yeah, you need to go talk to someone about her. Perhaps her parents. SHe has some underlying issues she needs to deal with before she goes through what she talks about.
