Self harm. Self-inflicted lacerations on the arm of a 26-year-old woman suffering from anxiety and depression. Self harm is physical injury inflicted by an individual upon themselves. It is often a manifestation of emotional distress - the physical pain inflicted serving to briefly relieve emotional pain. One of the most common forms of self harm is cutting, as seen here.
