My teen is self-harming and I'm terrified

Cutting, scratching, head-banging during dysregulation. School is notified, therapist is involved, but I'm living in terror. Is this ADHD + teen crisis or early-stage mental illness?
Regulation tools have turned inward.
How do you support a teen who's self-harming? What actually helps when the urge to fix it is overwhelming?
