Alternatives to Self Harm
Disclaimer:
Below is a list of things to do instead of cutting, burning, bruising, or any other form of self harm. Please keep in mind that unfortunately, not everything on this list will work for everyone. So, if you try something and it doesn’t work for you, don’t get discouraged!This is a really, really fantastic list. So exhaustive!
The see/hear/feel game mentioned (“See, hear and feel” 5 things for each, then 4, then 3 and countdown to one which will make you focus on your surroundings and will calm you down) is also an excellent tool for combating insomnia.
