smoking a blunt fareal..but um when I get angry thats what I do or I punch a wall or just count to ten slowly and think of how things will get better..sounds like it wont work but it will.
first of all this is serious. she needs help and more than just swapping one coping skill for another. there is a major problem that she is not dealing with that is causing her to feel such emotional distress. if you care about her try to get her to talk to you and then try to get her to find help she needs someone she can talk to to help her sort out her life
That is a really hard one to answer because when someone cuts themself, it is problem in the brain. I meen no offense by that but I have a cousin who does that and the only answer I can give is that she needs to find her own way, something more healthy, not that you should let her do it by herself, you should be right beside her. The only thing I know is God, I dont know if she or you believes in God but He can help.
The cutting is result of severe anxiety. The anxiety builds, and she cuts herself to release it. She really needs a regimen of medication and some therapy. That's where she'll learn new coping mechanisms. It's a complex medical disorder and there really are no single coping mechanisms that will do the trick.
if she like pain get her in boxing, believe me
those @#$%ing punches hurt more that cutting ,and she'll workout that built up of stress , but she has to train to fight and not to TAKE BOXING CLASS those dont work
if she cant cut herself she can take a hard *** hit to the face
