Self-harm may offer you relief from painful emotions in the moment, but it can leave you feeling worse afterward. It cannot solve your problems or remove the source of your pain. If you struggle with the following, you can get help from one of 7 in Denmark:

Feeling like normal ways of coping don't work for you – the pain is a last resort
Craving physical pain as a distraction from overwhelming emotions
Feeling reckless, not caring whether you get hurt
Feeling like you need to hide injuries from those who care about you
Feeling like you deserve the pain
Taking part in high-risk activities, disregarding safety
Not wanting to die, but still feeling like you need the pain
Imagining hurting yourself

If you use self-harm to cope with tough feelings, you may feel ashamed about your behavior. However, many people inflict harm on themselves as a way to relieve emotional pain. Self-harm is more common than you think, but a lot of people struggle to talk about it.

If you tend to hold things inside, talking to someone about your feelings can feel scary. However, trained helpline counselors and volunteers can help put you at ease. You can call a supporter in Denmark when you have the urge to self-harm and they can talk you through your emotions.
