She needs therapy.

.


It's called self mutilation. She needs professional medical/psychiatric help.
self mutilation, believe it or not, has nothing to do with suicide. she is not suicidal, and you should not leave her unless you will be more harmful staying around.

If you cause physical harm to your body in order to deal with overwhelming feelings, know that you have nothing to be ashamed of. It's likely that you're keeping yourself alive and maintaining psychological integrity with the only tool you have right now. It's a crude and ultimately self-destructive tool, but it works; you get relief from the overwhelming pain/fear/anxiety in your life. The prospect of giving it up may be unthinkable, which makes sense; you may not realize that self-harm isn't the only or even best coping method around.

Self-injurious behavior does not necessarily mean you were an abused child. It usually indicates that somewhere along the line, you didn't learn good ways of coping with overwhelming feelings. You're not a disgusting or sick; you just never learned positive ways to deal with your feelings.

She has depression. If you really love her then get her help as soon as possible!!! Talk to her and talk to her parents. Go to counselors or even suggest going with her to therapy sessions. Do whatever you can to save her before it's too late.
WHY??......to replace emotional pain with physical pain, since they have no control over their emotional issues. Depression can be treated with a doctors help.
AAH! EMO!
It is your girlfriend's way of controlling her environment and emotions. She needs to seek assistance for this problem. It does not go away on its own nor can she do it alone. Talk to her openly about the issues in your relationship. Be supportive and encourage her to seek help.
That's the way some people handle things because they don't know what else to do. Some turn to drugs, alcohol, etc. They are ALL bad choices.
