Why Do People Self-Harm?

People self-harm for different reasons. They recognize some of the reasons, while at other times they just know they have a compulsion to hurt themselves.

What many people on the outside looking in, like loved ones, don’t know is that the self-harm acts aren’t the actual problem, but rather the desperate solution the person uses to cope with challenging emotions and events. Self-harm is typically done as a symptom of a mental health disorder a person has, and it takes professional treatment to help them overcome their urges. 

A person may self-harm to deal with feelings of fear, anxiety, depression, and more. They may feel unable to speak up and ask for help, so they express themselves by hurting themselves. Some people self-harm to punish themselves or to try to stop painful memories and emotions from surfacing. Many times, the person feels nothing and resorts to harming themselves so they can feel something.

Signs and Symptoms That Someone is Self-Harming

When someone self-harms, there will be signs of it that include both obvious ones and others that aren’t as easy to detect.

Common signs and symptoms that a person needs treatment for self-harm in Northern California include:

  • Unexplained injuries or ones that don’t make sense
  • Scars
  • Cuts
  • Bruises
  • Scratches
  • Bite marks
  • Broken bones
  • A stash of objects used to cut, burn, or cause other damage
  • Wearing clothing to cover injuries
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Low self-esteem
  • Suicidal ideation
  • Hopelessness
  • Isolating

How to Help Someone Who Is Self-Harming

It can be frightening to see a loved one hurt themselves on purpose, and many people have no idea how to try to help. Let the person know you understand they are suffering, and you want to help them find help. Provide an opportunity for judgment-free conversation so they can open up without worrying about being ridiculed or dismissed. 

Volunteer to help the person find treatment that specifically treats self-harm. This can include looking online for options, calling centers, and helping them talk to their insurance company about options. Let the person know they are not the only person who self-harms, and licensed treatment from compassionate therapists can help them work through their issues and stop hurting themselves.

How is Self-Harm Treated?

People who struggle with acts of self-harm do well when they use different types of therapies to help them understand why they have urges to hurt themselves and how to minimize them.

The types of therapy we offer include:

The Effects of Self-Harm

The sooner a person seeks treatment for self-harm in Northern California, the less emotional and physical damage they do to themselves. Self-harm, even over a short time, can cause medical problems, especially when the individual does not receive adequate treatment. This can result in wounds, bruising, infections, and improperly healed bones.

Self-harm can also cause a person to feel elevated levels of depression, hopelessness, and anxiety. People who self-harm often feel extreme embarrassment and tend to isolate themselves from others. The more alone they are, the less likely they may be to reach out for help.

Self-Harm Statistics

While self-harm is often done in private, and the individual tries to hide it, it’s more common than many people might think. A 2022 survey showed that the number of people who visited emergency departments for self-harm injuries was 616,000.

Self-harm is more common in people who have been through adverse childhood experiences, abuse drugs or alcohol, or have mental health disorders that include depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), eating disorders, and personality disorders. The most common forms of self-injury are skin cutting, head banging or hitting, and burning.
