I want to stop self harming but after 6 years i just can't! what do i do now?

Help is available!: You need to seek professional help from a therapist or psychiatrist. While self-injury may bring a momentary sense of calm and a release of tension, it's usually followed by guilt and shame and the return of painful emotions. You may unintentionally injure yourself fatally, especially if you injure yourself while under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs. You can successfully stop!
