Does scratching to the point of taking off skin count as self harm? If so I've just relapsed 😥 I used to burn myself, but I had no way of doing that :(

Answer

That's how I used to self harm. I've been clean for over a year, but sometimes I think of doing it again when things get hard. Talk to someone. Maybe medication for depression would be helpful. It helps me a lot.

If your purposefully causing harm to your body then yes
