The Body as a Voice: Damage Limitation Techniques 

​Product Description​

• This  two page brochure provides information to help reduce the damage of NSSI. Whilst, it does not encourage the behaviour, NSSI is understood as a coping mechanism that is used to cope with undesired affect (amongst other functions).

• It is strongly recommended that before self-injuring you try a wide range of alternative coping strategies, such as talking throughm your feelings, using distraction or self-soothing techniques, grounding or re-orienting techniques, or any other nonharmful alternatives to NSSI (try the The Body as a Voice: List of Non-injurious Alternatives on the Resources page).

• TRIGGER WARNING: This brochure contains descriptive information that may be highly triggering to those who self-injure.

• This brochure is intended ONLY for those who engage in chronic NSSI, not for those who have just started self-injuring or only self-injure occasionally.
