make her stop,and tell her how musch you care about her, or go see a counsllerrelease any other way. It will temporarily take the place of the real pain she is having. Most young girls that are cutters have been sexually abused in one way or the other. Do you know if she has been or is now being sexually abused? Try to get her to open up to you and let you know what is causing all of this pain. She will definitely need professional help and you can be the one to help her get it. Does her parent(s) know? Could one of her parents be causing the abuse? Can you talk with your mom and get her some help? If not, try the school counselor. God bless you sweetheart and I'll be praying for you.

First Off Go to the Hospital! After that Know that there were voices in my past that told me that I had nothing to offer!, I was nothing!, God and Jesus Didn't value me and maybe you should think about what life would be like if you weren't in it because it would be better for everyone!, because this world would be better without you!....I tell you sister! If these are the voices your best friend hears!? Ignore these kind of voices, this second! because this is the deceiver Satan and his legion of evil spirits, who is the father of all lies! I don't know what the voices in her mind are holding against her? Maybe she trying to end the pain from all the lies in her mind by trying to cut herself! Hoping that in cutting herself your pain will stop!? I would encourage your best friend that this is not the answer to her life! DON'T LET HER DARE TRY TO TAKE THE EASY WAY OUT! The Fact is you and her are valued, your life does have a purpose and you are very much loved! I too dealt with depression and the one thing that really turned my life around was: 1. Knowing that God and Jesus Loved me and I was valued! 2. Knowing I had people on my side at church, in my social life and in my family that cared about me! and 3. I had to get myself out of the atmosphere that I was in! If all you do is stay in the darkness thinking about how it is never going to get better and think why life is not worth living. But, if you build a personal relationship again with other people and most importantly a relationship with God! Then you will see yourself back with a renewed joy! I would not be telling you this if I had not experienced what your best friend is feeling for myself! Know God loves her, and He wants to come into her life and give her a joy and peace that she could never experience in any other way. Jesus said, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you" John 14:27. She needs to know: >>God created her, and God loves Her!. His only Son, Jesus Christ, loves Her so much that he gave His life on the cross so she could be saved and break free from in perfectness, sin and this depression to become a child of God. She needs to give Jesus all your worries and burdens. When you accept Jesus Christ into your life, something wonderful and supernatural happens. God Himself comes to dwell within you! You become part of His family, and you can know the joy of His presence every day. Go and Pray for your best friend but before you do that ask her to tell you what all the voices she hears in her mind are saying and each time she tells you something negative the voices are saying tell her that the voices she hears are lying! Immediately,Renounce the lie in Jesus Name and tell her that God and Jesus Loves her and tell her to tell the voices in her mind to GO IN JESUS NAME! Right now, I encourage you to invite Jesus into your heart. I don't know what you believe or if you know God or Jesus but I would encourage you to start for your best friend's sake! I will be praying for you and your best friend because I was too once where your best friend is right now and the only way am still alive is because my faith in Jesus saved me and he showed me the better life I could be living if only I put my faith and trust in Him. I encourage you to read a bible right now and then read it to your best friend. Start with the gospel of John! There you will find a story of a man named John the Baptist that paved the way for another man named Jesus that loves you and will bring your best friend guidance and hope to her life, if you and your best friend only look to him and follow him for your life's answers instead of yourself! I can't stress enough how I know what your best friend is going though right now and she really needs a change of atmosphere in her life, get her out of the darkness and try to get her to meet new people! A lot of Church's have small groups, special support groups,bible study and some even have single groups. So, I would encourage you and your best friend to do that because it wasn't till I started putting Jesus first before myself that my life started to get better, I had a whole new image of myself and I started to see how much I was really loved and valued in God's eyes. You and your best friend are so loved! You and your best friend have so much to offer! I leave you with a passage from the bible that started to pull me out of the darkness and into the light: Tell this one to your best friend for starters: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make all your paths straight. Prov. 3:5-6. Go to Jesus in prayer and then go to your best friend and pray for her this way! Ask Jesus to lead your heart so you may trust him that everything will be all right and the next step you take will be right in line with what he wants for you in life, and what life is suppose to be like in serving him! In Jesus Name Amen

Cutting is a way to release pain within her that she can't seem to release any other way. It will temporarily take the place of the real pain she is having. Most young girls that are cutters have been sexually abused in one way or the other. Do you know if she has been or is now being sexually abused? Try to get her to open up to you and let you know what is causing all of this pain. She will definitely need professional help and you can be the one to help her get it. Does her parent(s) know? Could one of her parents be causing the abuse? Can you talk with your mom and get her some help? If not, try the school counselor. God bless you sweetheart and I'll be praying for you.

Tell her that many people love her and that she isn't alone. Make sure she knows that you are there for her and how sad and lonely YOU will be if she kills herself. Does she really want those scars all over her arms her whole life, and she always has to cover them up? Her life WILL get better. She's just at a low point right now. Try to have her check in to counseling if she listens to you
in the meantime, please tell a trusted adult. I know you want to keep it a secret because you want your friendship to last, but how guilty will you feel when she dies and you knew what was going on?

She could rather flow to a techniques and do severe harm . This behavoiur won't magically stop on this is very own. I wish you and your buddy all the acceptable and enable your buddy be attentive to you're there for her despite if she is disillusioned with you. tell her this is for the reason which you care approximately her lots that's the reason you had to tell because of the fact if something undesirable befell you may regreted no longer asserting something

i am on the other end of your situation. i had been cutting for a while, but only just today did a friend get me to stop. the way she got me to stop was by telling me how much she loved me and what she admired about me. it really sunk in that she couldn't live to see me in this state. i made a promise to her that i would try to at least cut less, or stop completely.
the best way to get a friend to stop is to talk to her. *note: i did not say yell* if you yell at her, it will just turn her off from listening. if you support and love her, she will melt. when my friends told me how much they cared, and i saw how much i was hurting them by cutting, i took my defenses down. after that, they could talk to me about stopping.
then you should go with her to the school counselor. my friends scheduled an appointment with one FOR ME because i wasn't strong enough to do it myself. they are planning to come with me the first few times i go. it helps me to know that my friends care enough about me to take some of the steps. if you haven't already, set up an appointment with a counselor now. i recommend a female counselor, just because it is easier to talk to someone from the same gender.
you are a good friend for wanting her to get better. I'm thankful that i have friends like you. just be loving and supportive of her, above all else. she can overcome her depression with your help.

This is very complicated. I am a former cutter and it's an addiction that is very hard to stop.
If you really want to help her, you'll tell an adult you trust. She will probably get very mad at you for this, but it is important that you get her help; her life is depending on this. If she doesn't get help from there, tell her to go to hopeline.com. She can get help anonymously, and no one will have to know anything.
Be a friend to her and stay strong in this. Cutting is an addiction, and it's very very hard to stop.
Good luck and prayers for her health!

You need to talk to a parent or someone that can get her some help, usually when young girls are cutting it's a cry for help or attention not because they really want to die. You need to get your mom or hers or someone like a much older sibling or relative

go and speak to your school counsellor.
There are 2 reasons ppl self injure - because they are ill equiped to deal with emotional pain, or soley for attention. Sadly the latter seems to be a growing trend.
If she is experiencing emotional upheavals that she cannot handle then she needs counselling.

First CALM DOWN!!. If ur not calm she won't be. Talk 2 her about it ask why she's cutting herself. Ask if she would like to go see a counsellor. Hopefully she'll stop.

tell her that it is not the end of the world and that there are still a lot if things that will come to her.......wats her problem anyway?
suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. theres still hope...she wont find relief if she kills herself. she can only find that while living
