The Self Harm Information Package.
Welcome to
The Self Harm Information Package
. This thread is here to give you a bit of a guide about self harm, for either yourself or someone you know, to hopefully help you to understand things a little bit better. Also, to realise that
you are not alone
in what you are going through.
After some basic questions and attitudes are cleared up, there are also some practical things here you can do regarding self harm to help you beat the urges.
Questions people often have regarding self harm:
What is self harm?
Why did I start to self harm?
Why is stopping so difficult?
If self harm is serving a purpose, what can I do to stop it and why should I stop?
Is self harm an addiction?
Is self harm "attention-seeking?"
Is self harm the same as suicide?
You may be beginning to wonder:
How can I tell my parents about my self harm?
Should I see my doctor about this?
I am under 16, will a doctor/counsellor have to tell someone about self harm?
When you're wanting to stop, you should consider:
What will make recovery from self harm easier?
What can I do instead of harming when I have urges?
