Self harming is a way of coping (albeit not the best way, as you know.)

Try to keep track of the triggers that "cause" you to do this, and then work on those things. Self harming is a symptom of something bigger, such as self hate, or feeling totally out of control of everything else in your life.

Do share what you figure out with a counselor (but be careful about sharing the cutting behavior, they have certain rules... ) Work on taking care of yourself, and if you must self harm, do so as safely as you can.
