Rest Of research Paper

At some treatment centers they offer an outpatient therapy session which is about 6-12 hours a day and an inpatient hospitalization. The inpatient program is only for times when the behavior interferes with daily activities (S.A.F.E.2)
There are common treatment methods for self-injury: psychotherapy ,which allows the teens the opportunity to explore their feelings or events happening in their lives, cognitive-behavioral therapy, which helps change the negative thinking into positive, interpersonal therapy that focuses on the home life and helping them build a better relationship with friends and family, then there are medications that are there to help relieve depression but aren’t very effective (Koonce3). As said on the S.A.F.E. Alternative’s website, the most effective treatment is a combination of all the above treatments. The treatments that are out there to do themselves are only guidelines and are not guaranteed to be the success of a cure. It begins with them having to identify the feelings they have and asking themselves what exactly is the urge behind the act.
Parents are a key factor into helping their children overcome this illness. They usually don’t see it in their children until its almost too late. Parents should serve as role models and encourage their children to respect their bodies (Counseling2). Parents must show that they are there for their children and they are okay with the fact that they do perform the act and how they want to help them. Friends can be support in the helping process, too. Friends can just be available for the ones who perform this action (Alderman2). Self-Injury victims act as though they don’t need any help or need their friends so they tend to push them away. They believe that their friends could possible judge them and think they are crazy. Another thing a friend nor family member should do is discourage self-injury. Telling an individual to not injury herself is showing whose the superior one, and it could possibly set someone off (Alderman3). 
Like any other thing there are steps for getting to the best part. This is just the beginning to a better life. Being a self-injury victim isn’t making someone a bad person, its all a part of life. There’s good and bad parts to it and this is just one of the bad things associated with it. Society is filled with these victims and by looking around they could be anyone.

Since when do we do anything right? Everything we do is consided wrong and horrible. We can never make things the way they are suppose to be and people jsut wants us to deal with it. When friends have trouble all you want to do is be there for them, but when you care for them soo much you want to be the world for them. You may not know it but you seem to think they are ignoring you but deep in your heart you know they arent. I"m getting used to the fact that it aint worth trying ot make someone be someone they arent ready to be. You cant make them feel the same as you. I've been told to jsut give them time and they might come around but I"m getting the feeling.. that i mightb e wasting my time. I cant change my feelings but I surely cant go on waiting for something that wont ever come. Its all jsut.. stupid and worthless.. I might as well jsut give up and move on with my life.. which is wanting ot be in hell anyway..
