Absolutely help her.
What grade is she in?
She’s a freshman.
And I know I need to help her, but I don’t know how. I’m afraid she’ll get mad at me for trying to interfere. =(

well i also have a friend that cuts.
the way i deal with it is doing nothing.
i mean, i let her express herself.
another one of our friends really hates it when my(also her) friend cuts.
its nothing personal.
think of it as an expression of her personality.

You have got to be extreamelly careful in this type of situation. you have to get the point across to her that she could DIE from doing this to herself. Simply tell her that you are worried at first, and that it scares you. Because if you push too hard she’ll push you away. You might even act curious about it, like ask how she does it, why, when, and how often. But don’t act ‘omg i could never do that’, or ‘ehhh’ because you need to stay one of her friends if you are going to help her. if it seems to you like it is getting really serious, tell an adult. i advice that you tell a teacher, and ask if the teacher could leave your name out of it, and say that she noticed a blood spot on her shirt or she saw the cut while she was answering a question. but no matter how you help her, you need to help her. i hope everything goes well, and she ends up okay.
Thank you Pinkpup, I think this will work. =)
(Here’s hoping!)
I dont agree. expressing herself by cuting is un healthy and dangerous. i think you would be a great friend to bring it up to her and just maybe find out why she does it. also, it can and often is a sign of getting attention or hurting on the inside. if the cutting dont stop you may want to involve a adult so you can be her true friend and help her to not do it. i think your great for helping her but, never do nothing that can only hurt.
Good luck to you and her.

Try to be a good friend and just listen so she can know that you care or at least that someone cares. Be there for her and try to cheer her up when shes down.
Its very hard to explain how a cutter feels,
They are generally unhappy about things nobody can change,
realizing that there is no solution to their problems is what makes them unhappy,
so i guess the key thing is not to try and cheer them up with the future, but to make them comfortable with what they already have,
