I can relate to that. Seems to be the issue of the moment. Meh. Half the magazines I have seen this year have had an article, not to mention the papers, national TV news etc.
However, it is a good thing in the long run, as it is raising awareness both in the general population & in the medical profession. Just hope more people do not get the notion to start as a result.

That's a very good idea. I've also seen the television shows talking about "cutting". This drives me crazy. Not sure why. It just seems to me that in part they are ignorant because there are far more ways to self harm than just cutting. I've been there, done that, but it just seems there is alot of misinformation going on. Maybe it's just my OCD again! Anyway, I think I'm the one just rambling.

I agree with you both. In a way it makes it harder to abstain, but I've been very good lately. I, too, hope that it doesn't give more young people the idea to self harm.

Hope everyone is taking care and staying safe,
Kimberly.

It's meant to stand for 'might trigger'...

In fairness almost all of the stuff I have seen has mentioned other forms, if not the more esoteric ones. Cutting remains by far and away the most common after self-poisioning (with no suicidal intention).
