Absolutely - but that's in a red tape free world isn't it? People told me she could not be admitted for psyciatric care because her condition is considered behavoiral and not listed as a mental illness in the DSMV. She strictly did it for attention and knowingly abused the system to get it. There was also a woman who used to skin herself - every couple months she'd take a box cutter to her arms and peel it off. They couldn't do anything other than bandage it because from her elbow to wrist was nothing but scar tissue.
