    The Many Different Forms of Self-Harm

    Amanda and I discuss the many different forms of self-harm that exist including the obvious ones and some that aren't always acknowledged as being forms of self-harm. We talk about some of our experiences with self-harming and how it has affected us personally. This episode deals with a heavy subject matter and this conversation can be triggering to some, so listener discretion is advised.  If you are struggling, please know that you are not alone.
