         Have a cold                         in height,

    At the moment when a young person is overcome by 
    an urge or need to self-harm, it can be very helpful 
    for them to have a range of different strategies they 
    can tap into to try and cope with the way they are 
    feeling right now without actually inflicting harm on 
    themselves.   This presentation contains in excess of 
    100  ideas  which  a  young  person  could  use  as  an 
    alternative to self-harm.  
     These ideas were all suggested by former self-
                         harmers.
    Different  things  work  for  different  people  at 
    different times; there are a wide range of ideas here 
    to  try.    It’s  always  worth  having  follow  up 
    conversations with the young person you’re working 
    with to find out what’s worked and what hasn’t so 
    they  can  refine  their  list  and  determine  the  best 
    strategies  to  employ  at  the  moment  they’re 
    overcome with the need to harm.  
                        Good Luck!
