Navigating Self-Harm & Mental Health
Self-harm can be influenced by a variety of factors like depression, anxiety, and borderline personality disorder can increase the likelihood of self-harm.
Why does someone self harm:
- Mental health struggles: Conditions like depression, anxiety, and borderline personality disorder can increase the likelihood of self-harm.
- Personal history: Individuals who have previously engaged in self-harm may be at higher risk of repeating the behaviour.
- Relationship difficulties: Problems with family, friends, or romantic partners can contribute to emotional distress that leads to self-harm.
- Economic and social stress: Factors such as unemployment, financial hardship, and social isolation can increase vulnerability.
It’s important to remember that self-harm is complex and deeply personal, and not everyone who experiences these challenges will engage in self-harm. If you’re looking for support or resources, you are in the right place.
