Research/Media: Call For Participants published by 1 week ago ()

SEEKING RESEARCH PARTICIPANTS - AGES 13-21

I’m writing to tell you about an online research study related to the
experiences of young people who physically hurt themselves
(self-injure).  Despite the prevalence of self-injury, very little
research has addressed the implications of self-injury for young
people, particularly those who may physically hurt themselves without
others knowing.  In order to better help this population, we need to
learn from those who have tried to physically hurt themselves.  The
knowledge we gain from your participation will have important
implications for understanding how to help those who physically hurt
themselves.

Individuals between the ages of 13-21 who have physically hurt
themselves are invited to participate.

This online study will take about 30 minutes of your time.  You should
have access to a personal computer in a secure, distraction-free
environment.

Your answers to these questions will be completely anonymous and confidential.

If you are interested in this study, please click the link below:

    hellokitty8761xxx says I know the feeling... on Expose Myself?

    I know what you're going through. Though I haven't been cutting for too long, I understand the fear of others seing my scars. Only my closest friends have. I hope eventually I'll be strong enough to wear a short sleeved shirt and shorts. I wear a bunch of bracelets on my wrists to cover the ones there, though the cuts and scars go up to my elbow. 

     

    Stay strong <3

    rosalmytp says I know how it feels but on Expose Myself?

    I know how it feels but somehow I've been able to conquer it.

    I used to be shy about my scars and would wear cover-ups in public pools and beaches. But then I've realized "who are they anyway?" I've learned to show my scars like battle medals and I've been able to build confidence as if my scars has nothing to do with how I look.

    I remember when we first used our inground pool, I walked wearing 2-piece swimsuit and everybody was in awe, I don't know what they were thinking and I don't care.

    You can call me "UNKNOWN" (not verified) says I have done this for one week on How to hide Your cuts?

    I started last week and my parents don't care about what I do so they don't pay attention. I usually hide my cuts in gym by wearing a sweatshirt over my gym shirt. At my school we can wear jackets over our gym clothes, not sure about your school. I do clean off the knife. It's easy. After you cut your self ONCE, wash it off with HOT water.
