TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - [Self-injury, converting emotional distress into physical pain] JO - Ugeskrift for Laeger A1 - Møhl, Bo A1 - Rubæk, Lotte SP - V01170066 EP - V01170066 VL - 179 IS - 26 N2 - Self-inflicted pain by cutting, hitting or burning oneself has become a common way to regulate emotions and to serve as coping strategy. 21.5-32% of adolescents in non-clinical populations have a history of non-suicidal self-injury. Non-suicidal self-injury has a momentarily relieving effect and is an important predictor of suicidal behaviour; even superficial self-injury should be taken seriously. There is an urgent need for organized treatment programmes for young people who self-harm.
