Dont tell her mom. Find out why she does it and try and be there for her. Tell her she can call you whenever she needs to. I used to cut and when my dad found out it just made it worse. My boyfriend of the time who is now my fiance helped me through it. I could always call him and after a few years I'm cut free.
also to the first poster if a guy cant deal with her cuts then he doesn't love her for her. My fiance when he first saw my scars kissed each and everyone. Some men are good!

Something is causing her to self harm ,try and ask her what is hurting her so much that she does this. Do tell a close family member but check how her relationship is with her mother first it may be a bad one. Support your freind as you are doing and talk to her but please never betray her trust in you.

 hey! this is a very sensitive issue, i've seen some of my friends go through periods of self-harming and it's so hard to see, so i feel for you there. have you tried talking to your friend about why she feels the need to self-harm? it's a complicated issue, and she may be dimissed as a freak or emo or whatever, but the important thing is tht you stand by her. if she's willing to open up to you maybe you could offer to help her get through this in whatever way you can. however, if you feel things get out of your depth, then it would be a good idea to get her mum involved, or at least another adult who you and your friend trust (depending on the relationship your friend has with her mother) good luck, i hope everything works out,keep us posted and if you ever need to talk just message me :) xxxxx
