Why does my girlfriend cut herself?

There are many reasons. Medically, cutting weakens not only physical, but psychic pain too. This happens due to endorphins which work as natural painkiller. They also provide euphoria. She can cut herself in order to get rid of some emotions which overwhelm her,

Sometimes people use cutting/self harming as a way to cope with emotions and situations they cannot control

lots of people self harm for many different reasons if you'd really like to find out one day ask her to talk and say youre worried about her and ask if SHE'D like to talk, never make her feel uncomfortable. If she doesnt want to talk dont force her to. another thing you could do is refer her to a suicide hotline or 7 cups of tea so she can talk to someone who will understand her and wont judge her at all

It could be because of a variety of reasons. She may feel overwhelmed, out of control, she may not feel much at all. Self harm is used as a coping mechanism, and, unfortunately, it works. You can't do much to help her, and you can't stop her, but you can tell her that you're there for her, and that you will help her through it. Stay strong, I wish you all the best for the future, and i hope you're girlfriend is okay

She is going.through some problems of her own and that's how he found comfort when she was at her lowest. Just hold her and help her through it, she needs you. Don't judge her, but still try to help her.

She maybe does that because she feels insecure about herself and doesn't want to annoy people she loves by talking to them. You should show her you care and that she can tell you anything she wants/needs but if she doesn't know you know about her cutting be careful and watch your words ;)

Cutting is a way some people try to cope with the pain of strong emotions, intense pressure, or upsetting relationship problems. They may be dealing with feelings that seem too difficult to bear or bad situations they think can't change. Some people cut because they feel desperate for relief from bad feelings.

People cut themselves for different reason. It varies from person to person. The only way you're going to find out why exactly your girlfriend cuts herself is if you ask her directly and if she is willing to give you an answer to that question. Good Luck!!

Your girlfriend may cut herself because she doesn't value the body she is in She may not have figured out the correct way to deal with her emotions or she may be depressed. Either way , you should support her on the journey to find a trusted medical professional to assist her.

She's feeling depressed, don't panic, it may not be to do with you, but as her boyfriend you should talk to her about it and see if in anyway you can help her
