Although self-harm is not yet considered an official mental condition, it might be classified as one soon. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5 (DSM-5) is coming out in 2013, and there is a section called Non-Suicidal Self Injury (NSSRI) that is currently pending for approval.
