  Self-cutting may be for the teens a means to vent despair and emotional pain, and to draw the attention and care that teenagers so deeply need. This book features the stories of self-cutters that the author has treated, explaining the rationale from a cutter's point of view, and citing the many reasons that can be behind it.
