Written by Vanessa

Take this online self injury test. Examine your mind and why you feel the need to self-injure. Stop self-injuring.

Questions - Examine your Mind

Everything is lost and your choice lies broken
And the truth is drowned
Giving Ground - SOM

If you feel the need to self-injure, try asking yourself these questions first. Write them down so you can refer to them later and really analyze your reasoning.

• Why do I feel I must self-injure? What has driven me to cut, burn, etc.?
• Have I done this before? How did I cope then? Did I feel the same way?
• What other paths have I pursued to ease my pain before now? Is there something else I can do that won't hurt?
• How am I feeling now?
• How will I feel later, when I am self-injuring?
• How will I feel afterward? How will I feel tomorrow morning?
• Can I avoid the problem that has driven me to this point? Is there a better way I can handle it next time?
• Must I self-injure?

If you'd like, print out this online self injury test and your answers and share them with your doctor or therapist. Your insights into why you self-injure and how you feel about self-injury could prove very helpful in your recovery from self-harm.
