Guest guest Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 There are several reasons for cutting....impulse control, depression ( my guess in this situation), frustration, manipulation or attention getting, suicidal ideation. I hope that you find an answer soon. Bonnie > > Liz, > I do understand how you feel...I am a mom of three and my eldest recently was diagnosed with OCD. It is quite difficult to deal with the mood swings from aggressive to depressed, the fact she looks herself in her room because she does not want her siblings or dad to know she is constantly repeating an action. Her dentist said her enamel is wearing away because of the number of times she brushes her teeth. My two younger children are trying to understand what is happening but they feel I am letting her rule the house. My husband is very traditional Indian and does not believe there is anything wrong with her. Despite my explanations of this is a genetic problem, he feels " there is no one in either of the two families who is crazy " I am at wits end trying to make him understand. She started with SSRI last Wednesday and yesterday I found her cutting her wrist! > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
