Confused ... is this a sign of danger or attention-seeking?

[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 537191, member: 1550"] First of all, my daughter cut. I'm guessing your daughter kept on cutting even after you confronted her because it is something one feels compelled to do and it can get addictive (I actually know two people who were cutters). My daughter used to cut on the soles of her feet so that we couldn't see and we never did know how much she did it. Also, her "over the top" moods could be drugs and not just pot. Pot doesn't make you that silly. It could be bipolar too, but I'm guessing drugs. You may want to drug test her. Pot is a huge Gateway drug. As for the suicidal note, I will relay a story to you that is true and you can take with it what you like. A friend of my daughter's, who was a fifteen year old boy, started posting some dark stuff on Facebook. One night he posted "The only time anyone ever listens to you is when you're dead." Nobody paid any big attention to that post. He died the next night. He hung himself in his closet. I am not trying to scare you because people threaten suicide often and many times they don't do it. Sometimes, though, they do. And it may be a cry for attention, but that doesn't mean they aren't serious. Maybe she does need attention right now...or psychiatric help. Huggggz! Keep us posted.
