To be concerned.

[polishgirlinamerica]

I don’t know what to do; I really don’t.
I checked DD 15’s phone, last week, specifically her Twitter and found out she has a Twitter account where she posts her self harm photos. I looked and it was pictures of fresh cuts with graphic description saying “got deep today” etc. I don’t know, I knew she had MH issues but not self harming. What do I do? Ive taken her phone.

I don't have any real advice but please be gentle and supportive. Let her know you are there for her. When I was a teenager and self harming my mum grabbed me and forced my sleeve up, and I just felt so violated and exposed, it was awful I imagine your daughter is also feeling exposed at the moment. Is she getting any mental health support? Does she have good friends around her?

Be gentle with her and don't rush in and demand answers.

Op this must be so incredibly worrying for you! Levels of self harm now!
Prepare yourself first and be as gentle as you can.

Talk to her FFS...

Be gentle. Don't be judgemental.

And give her the phone back. If she is able to communicate with other people about self harming, don't block it. Or she may get worse.

Encourage her to talk to you. And ask if she has considered counselling etc.

Get some advice op before you say anything, so sorry it is really heartbreaking. She needs help and professional intervention.
