Re: Self-Mutilation/"Cutting"
When I worked as a domestic violence advocate I saw 'cutting' more than I'd ever seen it before. Mostly by younger girls who had been sexually abused. What I find odd about it all is that years ago, girls acted out with anorexia/bulimia or promiscuity or something like that. But now, it's wierd. Suddenly everyone is 'cutting'. I don't know. It almost seems like a fad. I am not trying to dismiss the seriousness of it, as I know it is a serious issue. It just makes me wonder about the 'choice' of acting out.
