Why do I self-harm?

People sometimes harm themselves as a way to handle intense feelings.

  • 🧠 Emotional release: Self-harm can sometimes be a way to release intense feelings that feel too difficult to express with words.
  • 💬 Coping with trauma: Many people self-harm as a response to unresolved trauma, using it as a way to regain control over their pain.
  • 🔄 Numbing emotional pain: Some use self-harm to distract from emotional pain or numb overwhelming emotions.
  • 🌪️ Managing anxiety or stress: When feelings of anxiety or stress become unbearable, self-harm may seem like a way to find temporary relief.

Important note: Self-harm needs immediate professional attention. We offer free calls to listen to your situation and discuss your options for getting better.
