My dd has been very brave and told us recently that she's been self harming, we have been to our GP and are awaiting a referral to get her some counselling. In the meantime she is very aware of the marks, which are on the inside of one arm and her thighs. Shes wearing cardigans and hoodies to cover up, but it's hard at school especially during PE and she is desperate for them to go. I'm hoping this is a good sign. In the meantime I'm wondering if there's anything I can get her to help prevent or reduce the scaring while the cuts are still healing?
