    Make her promise. Someone made me promise. It works, and is working. I still have the urge, but I promised.

    dont demand her to stop.tell her youre there for her, and always will be to talk whenever she feels like cutting.i understand how it is fun for her, but shes going to regret in a couple of months when she has scars all over her body.she needs someone she can trust, and talk to.dont get her therapy until she turns down your plea, or does it again.never threaten her with therapy..she will hate you.just do it and dont tell her.give her another chance.i may be only 13, but i know the mind of a cutter.i know what she thinks.she told you she'd stop because thats what you wanted to hear.

    you need to know :" you cannot stop it". ONLY she can make the change. she needs HELP, THERAPY. It is a REAL illness.
    I could tell you more about it, however I can tell you 100% that NO ONE CAN help her unless she wants to get professional help.

    Ah, fun. Yes, she obviously just started. It might be fun now, but when she needs stitches and everyone she's ever loved is watching her suffer in a mental hospital, she'll be sorry. However, she can only stop if she truly wants to, and she's clearly immature and doesn't wish to do that.

    What I would do, is tell her she's bringing you down with her. You can't watch her do something so bad to herself and it's a slap in the face when she has you to make things better but still thinks her life is so bad that she has to do it. I know you're probably thinking it'll make it worse, but if this keeps progressing, you're both going to regret it.
