SELF-HARM  SUPPORT 
Self-harm can be direct (cutting, burning etc.) or indirect (substance misuse, eating disorders etc.) 

  "... the expression of, and temporary relief from overwhelming, unbearable and often conflicting
     emotions, thoughts or memories, through a self-injurious act that [the self-harmer] can control 
     and regulate”.  Robyn Kemp (NCERCC)
 " Self-harm is about self worth, self preservation, lack of choices and coping with the uncopeable" 
    Louise Pembroke, ASHES (Abuse and Self Harm Experiences Survived)


If self-harm affects you or someone you know - here are some helpful websites:
