Self-Harm

Self-harm is a deeply distressing and harmful behavior where individuals intentionally inflict physical harm on themselves as a way to cope with emotional pain, overwhelming emotions or to regain a sense of control. It is often a sign of profound emotional suffering, and those who engage in self-harm may do so in various ways, such as cutting, scratching, burning, hitting themselves, etc. Self-harm is not a solution to the underlying issues but rather a coping mechanism that offers temporary relief.
