Last week I talked about the complex and disturbing phenomenon of self harm. Self injurers are people who may develop habits of cutting, hitting, burning, scratching, skin-picking, banging their heads, breaking bones or not letting wounds heal.
Psychologist/Counsellor Genevieve Milnes M.App.Psych, MA (Couns), B.Ed, B.Div from the Belmont Counselling Clinic joined me again today during my morning radio programme on 98.5 Sonshine FM for further discussion on self harm.
Today we asked what else can be categorised as self harm. What about overeating? What about tattoos? Alcohol and drug abuse? These all cause us pain or harm but can they be classified in the same way?
