and I don't know what to do ...
She's scratched a big wound into her arm. I'm pretty certain she's done this before (starting at primary school) but this is the first time that she's admitted it.
It's the first time that she's talked to me and she said that she just feels sad all of the time.
Her father and I split up when she was 8 and that affected her really badly and in addition I think (although she only really talks about this now) that she was bullied at primary school.
I've contacted the pastoral head of her year at school and I'll try and phone the doctor to get an appointment. Is there anything else that I should or can do?
