A member asked:

Was just at a starbucks and set next to a girl with a lot fresh cuts running up her arm. do you suggest saying anything? if so, what?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: No need to say anything unless you feel as though she is trying to talk to you. You dont know the circumstances surrounding the cuts and generally she likely has her support system who will try to get her to get help if she needs it or she will seek it on her own. You could end up saying something to worsen her symptoms if it is in fact a mental health issue.
