Somebody, I believe our situations are alot alike. My best guy friend cuts himself. It is very hard for me to unders WHY he does it. But i believe he wants to stop because he calls me when he wants to cut and i come over and we sit with each other. But then there are some times that he does cut himself and he comes to me and says 'don't be mad at me' Thats the hardest part seeing him upset and it scares me because i almost lost him a couple of months ago because of his SI. Anyways Im sorry i have been going on, but its important just for you to be there for your friend. They will try to push you away just like my friend did but once they are ready they will want you to be there. You must also watch out for yourself. I sometimes find that i have to spend some time away from my friend because his actions have brought me down. but He called when he needed me. Just be there and don't give up on him
