Summary

TW - Self harm Self-harm is often used as a way to respond to and manage emotional pain, overwhelming feelings or distress. For the most part, people self-harm without wanting to die but sometimes they may have suicidal intentions. Some people find that the physical pain of self-harm helps provide temporary relief from the emotional pain. In this way, self-harm can be a coping strategy used by individuals to help them continue to live. If you use self harm as a coping mechanism, have a loved who self harms or want to learn more about why people do this please listen to this podcast. In this episode I unpack my journey with self harm, why I did it in the past, how to find healthier coping mechanisms and how to help a loved one who is struggling.  If you are struggling or having bad thoughts please contact lifeline on 13 11 14.
