I found out that my daughter has been cutting when she was 13 (she is now 14) She may have been self harming before that but that was when I found out. She also attempted suicide. I can understand how she is feeling because I myself suffer from anxiety and depression. I tried to take my life at her age and engaged in many self destructive behaviours. I understand why people cut but my question is how can I help. She is especially distant and is not home because she only wants to be with friends at this time. Getting help has been hard and she was put on a wait list to see someone. Recently she finally got in to see someone and has done two sessions with this person but it was very hard to get her to go.
