abstract="Since the first occurrences reported in the early 1800s, self-cutting has been associated with sexual abuse. Recent studies show that incest represents a proximity risk for self-cutting, rather than an etiological factor. Our theory demonstrates the persistence of a psychic pattern characterized by partial drives with a particular emphasis on cruelty, mastery drive, and scopic drive, which influence both the root causes for self-cutting and also the way it is inflicted. Sibling incest sustains a partial logic and therefore delays the genital maturity. As for partial drive, the evolution of self-cutting is multiple. It could be only a moment easing the coming up of femininity, or a way to deal with lost using mastery, it could become a standard part of masochist-driven perversion, or also remain as a compulsive attitude blocking any mental process, leaving the young girl exposed to a death wish that can even evolve into suicide attempts. © 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS.
