We believe:

• Lots of girls and young women self-injure

• People self-injure for lots of different reasons

• Self-injury can be a way of dealing with things that are difficult in life

• A person will change or stop their self-injury when they are ready to and not before

• It can be helpful to understand your reasons for self-injury and what it means to you.

• There are no right anweres or single solutions to self-injury, different things work for different people.
