Question: Does anyone know about a self-harm prevention teen group!?
I have barely gone without cutting myself and I think it'd be nice to know that other people have done it tooWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
There are groups around honey, but since I don'tknow whereabouts you live, it would be difficult to tell you where to go!. There are support groups for so many things that I would be surprised if there weren't a group in your area!. Ask your doctor if you feel up to it!. You can be assured though, that you are NOT alone with this problem, and it's not just teens that face it, older people have the same problems too!.
You'd probably be amazed at how many people of your age are struggling with this same problem but don't know how to speak out and say that they have it!.!.!.
If you're still in school, ask the school nurse (if you have one) or phone the number of a local youth counselling service, (look in the phone book for a number) and ask who ever answers the phone if they know of any local self harm support groups!.
If there isn't one, how about looking into setting one up, for you will not be the only one who needs it:)Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is a self-harm help page at:

You also may want to google "self-harm prevention teen" and add your state to the query!.

Teen Health has cutting info at:

I found an 800 # for you at 800-366-8288!. I found this at:

I did it :)
There you go, someone else!.
I bet there is loads of chat rooms online or forums etc!. I don't know about specific groups, because as teenagers, we all have different problems, and take on these problems!.

Are you getting professional help at all!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
