Unhappy How can I help a friend at school who is cutting herself?‏ - February 20th 2011, 05:59 AM
Hello,

I am in Grade 9. There is a girl in my school who speaks to me occasionally. I know her a bit, but not well. She has been cutting herself and keeps showing me the scars, but doesn't want to talk about it.

This all started when I put on a party with a group of other friends and I invited a guy I like. But for some reason, that guy doesnt want to be the only boy for this event, so I asked this girl to invite his best friend which is also her best friend to come. Somehow, that boy got mad at her, so she was really sad for losing a "best friend". That night, she post a status saying "it hurts so much" and things like that.

She keeps implying the whole thing is my fault on me and showing me the cuts. She says the second cuts are not about the guy, but she will not tell me what it is. She keeps updating her status to say how much her cuts hurt, but she won't respond to my replies about it.

What can I do to help her? I don't think she will call any help lines?
