Self inflicted: Mutilation is one way that some people cope. It is not a healthy coping mechanism. People may harm themselves because they feel emotionally numb ; it allows them to feel something. Some harm to distract from anxiety, depression or stress. Some people self-harm as a form of self- punishment. Self harm may be done as a cry for help. Perfectionists may harm themselves because they feel it is a way.
