Hi there @brave1990
Thank you for sharing this with us. It must be heartbreaking for you to know that your 12-year-old is self-harming. How are you coping with the news?
You mentioned that you don't see her much, which must be hard when you feel worried. Is she living in the same household as you at the moment?
This is such a difficult position to be in as a parent, but I hope that having a counsellor involved is helping. Please know that we will listen to your concerns and provide support where needed.
I thought it might be helpful to send the resources we have on self-harm for you to read - here is information on self-harm, and here is some content on what you can do to support your child.
Hope to hear back from you soon.
It looks like you’re visiting us from a country other than Australia.
We are an Australian service and think you’d benefit more from looking up a similar service in your country.
You are welcome to look around the forums, but please don’t make an account or post, as we can’t offer you the help you may need.
Before you go ahead and post, you should know that we remove non-Australian accounts – not because we don’t want to help or connect with you, but because we may not be able to provide you with the service that you require.
