[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 539858, member: 84"] I don't want to sound cold hearted, but given her past on this? I'd ask to see those scars myself. And at least with Nichole, it wasn't too difficult to tell a deliberate cut scar from an injury scar. Given she's done it before as an attention getting tool (or to fit in, be cool, whatever) odds are higher she's still doing it for that reason. Maybe she's upped it a bit and is actually cutting, Maybe not. Personally, even if I was a cutter, the last thing I'd pick to do it would be a razor because not only does it hurt like hades immediately, that pain does NOT go away for some time. And I just checked with Nichole who has used literally everything under the sun to cut, and she never did the razor for the same reason. (and we're talking a girl who did deep massive carvings here) And a true cutter usually will NOT leave evidence of cutting lying around because they're ashamed of it. Not mention hiding areas they cut. They don't want found out and they don't want their objects taken away. So, I'm not saying she isn't cutting. I don't know that. But I'm saying it's not necessarily ringing true here, not unless it's cutting for attention......which is a whole other ballgame of cutting. So I wouldn't go into panic mode just yet. I'd stay in assessing the situation mode instead and take it from there. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
