i think there's 2 sides to this.
i agree with sterile blades, it has worked with drugs and clean needles.

but supervised self harm...no i don't like that idea, also for inpatients to be allowed to harm, certainly not. one of the main reasons for a lot of people to go IP is to be forced to stop harming, to keep them safe because they are not in control of their harm any more.

also, do you think anyone would try to sue hospitals if their self-harm increased/got worse because they provided the blades??
