Helpful Score: 2
Self-injury, including cutting, has spread across mainstream America without regard to age, sex, or race. While it isn't a new phenomenon, its emergence in the population leaves many people - parents, friends, and teachers - dismayed and confused. Many mistakenly believe the behavior is limited to girls, and many more think it is simply an attempt to get attention. Instead, it is usually a secretive, hidden physical expression of intense emotional or spiritual pain. It isn't an adolescent "phase" and without help, can lead to suicide.
Cutting is also not limited by faith. Christians, non-Christians, and non-believers are all affected. The content of this book is written from a Christian perspective but is applicable regardless of religious beliefs.
This book provides information to help loved ones understand and support the victims of this complex problem. It is also useful for those who harm themselves, to give them hope and understanding of themselves.
