  • Looking for a way to escape the emotional pain
  • Imagining hurting yourself

  • A desire to punish or hurt yourself
  • Feeling like you need to hide injuries from those who care about you
  • Feeling like you need an outlet to channel your painful emotions
  • Not wanting to die, but still feeling like you need the pain
