A counselor can not truly get a person who participates in self injury to "stop" it is not that simple, let alone easy. You can make suggestions, provide different types of tools that are healthier and create safety plans along with teaching your patient about mindfulness, truthfully you can offer a person alot but in the end it is up to THEM if they are ready to stop. A perfect example is: You can lead a horse to water but you can not force it to drink. Even if its dehydrated

How do you help a friend stop cutting without telling a counselor?
Well you cant stop your friend from cutting. Only they can do that. I have been a cutter for almost 6 years now. If you arent a cutter yourself you are probably having a hard time understanding what your friend is going through. If you tell a counselor, most likely your friendship will end. Why not just try supporting your friend and hanging out with them alot before going to an adult. Try to make them feel loved. Cutting is a serious issue, but sometimes you have to let the person hit rock bottom before they will get any help. Me and my friend are on our way to recovery. We slip up alot. Cutting is an addiction and until something so drastic happens that it really changes your view on life, it is hard to find a reason to stop. I know that my friend who is also a cutter just started a blog about her struggle with cutting. I only think she has one post up, but her e-mail is on that blog also. You can have your friend contact her. It will help your friend to talk to someone who really understands what they are feeling. heres the link http://xxxcryingbloodytearsxxx.blogspot.com/

How do you stop cutting without seeking professional help?
It is my understanding that people do it because the self inflicted pain distracts them from the emotional pain they are feeling. First you must address your emotional pain. Find out why you are cutting. What is it that you do not want to feel, what pain are you trying to cover up? Then you must address that pain, eliminate that stress from your life. Cutting is an addiction as well. You have to want to stop in order to stop. You just stop doing it, use your will power, be strong. But if you are a cutter you probably need professional help, not particularly to stop cutting but to address the deep emotional pain that you are feeling.
