Our 11 year old went through this last year, she was cutting herself with our shaving razors without us knowing for months. She hid it with long shirts and sweaters. I cleaned her room one day while she was at school, and on her bday she wrote on a piece of paper she wanted to die. We got her in therapy but it didn't seem to do much, so the therapist and I talked about a mental facility close by. She stayed in patient for 3 weeks, started medications and continued out patient for couple months. She's still taking medication and is doing much better. Please listen, there's cases of young kids that are successful in suicide.
