July 16, 2012 by Hollywoodite

Miley Cyrus is being accused of self-harming after photos showed the 19-year-old leaving Windsor Pilates in Los Angeles with injuries to her wrists.

Her fans insist those are scratches from her puppies. However, HollywoodLife.com and now RadarOnline.com insist the teenager is a cutter who is self-harming to de-stress. Both websites point to a tweet by her elder brother as “proof.” Trace Cyrus wrote the day of his sister’s engagement, without offering specifics, “Sending my love for girls who got some cuts at their wrists. I hope u find what you’re looking for.”

Los Angeles-based psychologist Dr. Seth Meyers pontificates: “If Miley is self-cutting, it’s a sign that she’s in emotional trouble, dealing with feelings that are stronger than she can handle. It could also reflect an attempt to get attention from others. The fact that Miley’s career seems to have stalled may be partly responsible if she’s resorting to self-injury. Cutting is often seen in females who have Borderline Personality Disorder.”

Psychotherapist Jessica Aronson tells RadarOnline: “Painful life changes can trigger feelings that are overwhelming to a person without a healthy coping mechanisms and can result in cutting. If Miley is cutting, I do not think it would have been the first time it occurred.”

In other Cyrus news, she’s reportedly rushing into motherhood. “Miley and Liam really want to have a baby quickly…” because his brother, Thor’s Chris Hemsworth, just had a baby. “They are both mature and ready for this… Miley is 19 going on 40.”

And she’s cut her hair from long and ombre to short and blonde all over. Here are Twitter photos of the new haircut by Chris McMillan with the caption: “Now that I’m blonde I gotta give duck lips in every photos.”
