From a 'cutter' » cmcdougall

In reply to Help - 12yr old caught cutting!, posted by cmcdougall on May 1, 2002, at 12:53:55

I started SI (self-injury) at about the same age. It is a coping skill (although an extremely unhealthy one). Personally, no medication has helped me with this behavior of over 20 years- but therapy has. I do not have OCD, but am diagnosed with bipolar among other disorders. I cannot stress the importance of therapy enough for this issue, and to start at this age before it becomes ingrained bodes well for her future. I wish you and your step-daughter all the best- Judy P.S. Stress often brings on my SI and I wonder if her try outs produced the same feelings within her.
