Is there a way to help to stop my girlfriend's self harm problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Self harm: Self harm is a coping method to feel physical pain instead of emotional pain. You can help to create an environment that supports the experience and expression of emotions. As well, you could find out about dialectic behavior therapy (dbt), which is a form of therapy that helps people who self harm. Look online or call insurance company for referrals to a local dby therapist and group.
