one of my friend's girlfriends did this when he tried to break up with her and now he is caught in a relationship with her

from what i understand they do to release the emotional pain they feel inside. it makes them feel pain other then what is inside, some may just do it for attention though. if it is from emotional pain try talking to her about any problems she has or has had in her life. if she doesnt feel secure enough to open herself up, suggests she seeks a professional to talk to. plenty of normal people visit thearpist.

hope this helps in some way. im sure there is more information on the net, it is quite a big problem amongst depressed youth.

She's doin' it like Rain said because she wants attention.  The only problem is, if you give her attention, she'll just want more and it'll reinforce the idea that if she does something stupid, she'll get what she wants.  The trick is, you have to make her realize why she's doing what she's doing, so she can mature and realize that it's destructive, and hurts the people around her a lot more than it hurts her.  The best thing to do, is to be there for her, and try and help her understand why she does it.
