Self-harm helplines are available in Marlborough, New Zealand

Self-harm may offer you relief from painful emotions in the moment, but it can leave you feeling worse afterward. It cannot solve your problems or remove the source of your pain. If you struggle with the following, you can get help from one of 1 in Marlborough, New Zealand:

  • Feeling like you need an outlet to channel your painful emotions
  • Searching for ways to self-harm
  • Not wanting to die, but still feeling like you need the pain
  • Feeling like self-harm is the only thing keeping you going
  • Avoiding people you care about so they don't find out
  • Feeling like your emotions are too difficult or overwhelming to deal with
  • Not looking after your physical health (e.g. not eating, not taking care of wounds or injuries)
  • Feeling like normal ways of coping don't work for you – the pain is a last resort

If you use self-harm to cope with tough feelings, you may feel ashamed about your behavior. However, many people inflict harm on themselves as a way to relieve emotional pain. Self-harm is more common than you think, but a lot of people struggle to talk about it.

Talking about difficult emotions with someone compassionate and non-judgemental may help lighten your burdens. There are dedicated helpline volunteers in Marlborough, New Zealand who are trained to support people through emotional distress. A helpline volunteer can help you process complex feelings and introduce you to healthy coping tools at your own discretion.

If you feel like you might need support with self harm, try reaching out to a hotline in Marlborough, New Zealand. It's free and confidential.
