Pre-University Paper from the year 2015 in the subject Psychology - Clinic and Health Psychology, Abnormal Psychology, , language: English, abstract: This research paper dives into the details of five separate articles that report on the social issue of self-harm. The research was conducted both on and off-line, the off-line research being surveys given to a class of high school students. This paper will explain what selfharm is, the causes, the effects, and the treatment that can be used to help if not cure selfharm. Contrary to belief, cutting is not the only type of self-harm, unfortunately there are several ways one can hurt themselves in a non-suicidal manner. Burning, scratching, hitting, preventing wounds from healing, and bone breaking are all considered to be parasuicidal (injurious behavior without suicidal intent) actions. The articles suggest that self-injurious behavior is an impulse control disorder that is comparable to an addiction such as cocaine or heroin. It is also suggested that self injurious behavior disorders can be treated, and the victim of the addiction can go on to live a normal life as they learn to control their overwhelming impulses to harm themselves.
