[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all I am sorry she is hurting and that you and your family are hurting too. I have one comment: restrict her access to Instagram which she may refer to as IG or Insta w/ friends. Even if you know and monitor her main account, it is likely that she will see things there that may fuel this behavior, or even have a sub account. If you do not believe me, search any of a variety of hashtags such as "bipolar"* on your own device and see what returns. Instagram has become a haven for young women in pain and there is a deep sub-culture related to cutting. Source: this connects to some professional work in mobile tech and a related family experience. Wishing the best for her and you. *I am not implying your daughter is bipolar or there is shame in bipolar. This is simply the hashtag that came to mind. [/quote] Tumblr has as many, if not more, instances of glamorizing self harm.[/quote]
