Cutting takes the reader through the psychological
experience of the person who seeks relief from mental pain
and anguish in self-inflicted physical pain. Steven
Levenkron traces the components that predispose a
personality to becoming a self-mutilator: genetics, family
experience, childhood trauma, and parental behavior.Written
for the self-mutilator, parents, friends, and therapists,
Levenkron explains why the disorder manifests in
self-harming behaviors and, most of all, describes how the
self-mutilator can be helped.
