I have been a cutter 4 11 years and have been battling 2 stop the whole time. About a year ago i met a new friend abnd we hace became very close, shes helped me with alot of problems, she has problems too and we'v both shared and helped each otha with them. She is not a cutter but has said she has been close to it. Recently she has been down and yesterday she cut herself, im now so worried its because of how i deal with things, is she tryin them too?i am soooo worried about her. Is this my fault shes started to do this? xx

I def don't think you should blame yourself. People make thier own choices in life. All you can do is be there for her as a friend. I know this probably wasn't much help, but if you need to talk i'm here to listen

The other thing I was thinking about after my first comment was that maybe you need not to talk to her about your cutting. I know that will be hard because you two share your problems. I'm not sure if that made sense. But I know with my bf that also cuts we really have to watch what we say to eachother to make sure we don't trigger one another.

I agree with hopeless123. It's probably best to treat this as a one-off incident and let it pass.

yea i understand, i try not 2 talk 2 her about it, but if shes any cuts and i havent told her..she feels like im keepin things from her and says all she wants 2 do is help and thats how i feel wiv her, if she kept from me she that was doing it i would be really hurt bcoz all i wanna do is help. im hoping and prayin it is just a 1 off xxx
