Why is self harm wrong as a coping technique?

Self harm isn't wrong as such, its a unhealthy coping technique and it would be good to find alternatives that don't damage you.

really it isn't 'wrong' but there are better ways to cope - and for some that continue to self - harm it can become dangerous.

It's wrong because it harms you. It's painful and it's followed by shame and guilt. It doesn't at all get to the root of the issue. It's scarring physically and emotionally. As difficult as it may be, professional care must be sought after as well as moral support.

Because it leaves scars forever and they're not pretty at all. Also, if you go too deep, you could potentially do ligament damage or die

I know self harming is wrong as a coping technique because it solved literally nothing. Why on earth would I make a problem worse by damage my perfectly functional body? Anyone who cuts owes those that are disabled and bouquet of flowers and an apology. What's worse is that self harm leaves scars, so once someone is done being stupid and hurting themselves they have to hid their scars or bruises because they're ashamed of what they've done. Self harm is wrong in every way, shape, and form.

it is a temporary "placebo" solution. its effect only lasts for a few seconds. self harm does not deal with the real issue, the real question is why do you need a coping technique! And to discover that you have to seek help and explore your emotions.

Self harm is an inappropriate chopping technique because it causes more harm and more issues than other, healthier coping techniques.

Self harm is very bad. Using it as a coping technique isn't good for you physically or emotionally. Try to instead read a book, you can try screaming into a pillow or biting a pillow, or jumping up and down.

Because the real problem is that you believe you are the reason everything went wrong. So you hurt yourself in attempt to cope the problem. While the real reason is something else. It is something you should figure out by yourself and with other people (profesional can give great help).

I asked myself this a lot when I was going through depression. Scars are permanent. Cuts can get easssilllyy infected, especially if you're using sharp objects that haven't been cleaned.
