Self Harming

Self-harm or self-injury means hurting yourself on purpose. One common method is cutting yourself with a razor. But any time someone deliberately hurts herself is classified as self-harm. Some people feel an impulse to burn themselves, pull out hair or pick at wounds to prevent healing. Extreme injuries can result and self injury is a serious mental health issue. Often the person engaging in self-injury feels shame and engages in this behavior in secret. Therapy is an important part of breaking the shame and silence. Therapy can help someone with self-harming to learn more effective coping mechanisms and the ability to tolerate distress. Therapy also involves exploring the underlying issues associated with self-harm.
