Self-Harm
Self-harm refers to the act of intentionally inflicting physical injury on oneself, usually as a way of managing intense emotional distress. It is a behavior that deserves attention and understanding, not judgment.
Signs to pay attention to: marks or wounds that a person tries to hide, isolation, changes in mood, or expressions of deep distress.
When to seek support? It is a good idea to seek help when this behavior appears or when someone close shows signs of suffering, without waiting for the situation to worsen.
Which specialist treats it? Clinical psychology and mental health professionals support this process in a safe and confidential space. If you or someone you know is going through this, talking with a professional can make an important difference.
