Self Abuse Treatment

Self Abuse Causes

The exact cause of self abuse is not know, but studies have shown that it usually indicates that somewhere during the development of that person he/she did not learn good ways of coping with overwhelming feelings or stress. It is commonly refer to as form of a “coping mechanism”.

People who suffer from self harm are not sick or insane, they just:

• Feel empty inside
• Over or under stimulated
• Unable to express their feeling
• Loneliness
• Not understood by others
• Fearful of intimate relationship
• Fearful of adult responsibilities

The only way out to relieve and cope with this pain or hard to express feelings is by self injury. But relieve is only temporary, and a self-destructive cycle often develops deeper and become more complicated mental health or personal problems without proper treatment.
