Self-destructive behaviour is usually in reality a survival mechanism. It is often seen as the voice of the silenced or hidden self - a way of demonstrating in a physical way feelings which cannot be expressed emotionally. Sufferers often keep their self-inflicted injuries secret in the same way as they keep their feelings hidden - this demonstrates how wrong it is to label eating disorders, self-harm or abuse of drugs or alcohol ‘attention seeking’.
