Exploring the Stigma of NSSI
This quarter, we’re taking a closer look at the stigma of NSSI (Nonsuicidal Self-Injury) through exploring what it is, misconceptions about it, and how stigma can shape the way people experiencing it are understood and supported.
Articles will be shared here and can be found on our Facebook and Instagram.
As we begin discussing our TOQ on NSSI (nonsuicidal self-injury), Steven shares his lived experience of self-harm during a difficult time in his life, including his journey toward seeking help and the importance of tackling stigma around self-harm.
