Get help now.: Self harm is not a healthy way to deal w problems. If you engage in repeated self-harm you need mental health assistance. A comprehensive psychological eval is necessary. You may need medications to treat possible mental health conditions. If your self-harm is associated w substance abuse – detoxification, 12 step programs or rehabilitation may be indicated. Dialectic behavioral therapy.
