my girlfriend suffers from depression and to cope with it she self-harms. I've tried to get her to stop from doing it because it' not healthy and it hurts me seeing the scars left from it. I know that it's not easy for her and the urge to self-harm is really strong but how do i get her to feel more happy and not to self harm? I really want to see her smile genuinely again.
Try to get her therapy or find safe and non destructive coping mechanisms. Also, make sure you’re there for her as much as you can. The only person who can make her stop is herself.
You both can do this! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ reply
