Self-harm refers to deliberate actions that cause physical harm to oneself as a way to cope with emotional distress.

Though it may seem counterintuitive, self-harm often serves as a coping mechanism—helping individuals regulate overwhelming emotions, express distress, or regain a sense of control when they feel powerless.
