Ok so I don't know her very well, we've only been in school for 7 days and we're only in color guard together. She wore a lot of bracelets for the first few days of school ad now she only wears a wrist band, high up her arm. She was moving and adjusting te wristband in class and I think I saw a cut on her arm. I don't know if I'm just paranoid, I used to cut myself,so maybe I'm just noticing a few signs of self harm and I'm freaking out. I don't know how to ask her if she's cutting or not. I'm afraid instead of talking about it she'll just close up and tell me to go away. I know cutting is very serious and not all cutters are suicidal. I'm worried about her.

Hi. So this past week I was at my grandmothers hose and my mom came to pick us up and told us that our cat, Jack, had liver cancer. So they put him down.

I'm obviously upset, I mean, he was our cat for eight years...

So how can I deal with this?

I got it done at Claire's Boutique in October 2010, so they used a gun. My ear looks like it has a bump filled with pus directly on top of the piercing. None of my earrings fit through it ,so I used an alcohol-cleaned safety pin with the tip cut off.

I hit my ear and it bled so my mom started cleaning it, causing me severe pain. she said we weren't using the safety pin so she got a pin and bent it into a square. I wore it for a day and when we cleaned it today, it caused me too much pain so there is no longer an earring in it.

[TL;DR]

My ear was pierced with a gun a few months back and now its red, has a bump filled with pus around it,and it hurts severely when touched.
