Get comprehensive: Psychological evaluation (psychologist or a psychiatrist). You may need med to address any emotional disorder that you might have. If your cutting is associated w substance abuse – detoxification, 12 step program or rehabilitation may be needed. Talking therapy is necessary. Dialectic behavioral therapy (dbt) is gold standard. Find a therapist in your area who has expertise in dbt.
