Nhs is wrong about the definition of Deliberate Self Harm

"This definition needs to be reviewed, it is extremly offensive to some people."

"Self Harm has been hidden behind a wall of Taboo's too long. and it's time the NHS and people woke up to the reality"

"Please read up on all the current research on self-injury!"

"i think that the definition needs to be reviewed"

"grow up you stupid twars"

"DSH is not an act of attempted suicide, in fact it is often used to be able to 'live' or to avert a suicide attempt. Is their any wonder the NHS treats people who use DSH as a coping mechanism so badly when they use definitions like this for their staff. "

"SH needs to be addressed in a very serious way! Please try to get it right!"

"I have known someone who self injures for a long time, and i knwo that she isnt trying to commit suicide for if she was she would do other things, as surely she is self injuring as a way to remain alive as suicide is so final.....x"

"self harm is not an act of suicide.... it's a coping method."
