Talking about self-harm
What will the future bring?
Self-harming behaviour can be reduced with counselling and support. Hope for improvement and control over your life can be very important in reducing and eventually discontinuing the way you self-harm. Many people do stop harming themselves - when they are ready. You could find that you will be able to sort out your problems and find other ways of dealing with your feelings. It might take a long time, but things will get better.
"I can’t scream
I can’t shout
I hurt myself
to get pain out."
