Preventing Self-harm in Teens: A Guide for Appropriate Intervention: 

 

Many teens who engage in self-harm do so because they are grappling with difficult emotions that they are unable to healthily manage. Self-harm may provide such teens with a feeling of distraction or release, or may be a means of acting out frustration. Additionally, in some cases, teens may self-harm as a means of demonstrating their pain or stress to prompt help from others.

Find out the potential signs of self-harm. Understand the strategies for loved ones to intervene. Find the resource GUIDE HERE.
