At Out of the FOG, we aim to support families and loved ones affected by personality disorders. One significant concern in this area is self-harm, particularly among adolescents. A notable study published in the British Medical Journal in 2002 examined self-harm behaviors among 15- and 16-year-olds across 41 schools in England. The findings revealed that 6.9% of participants reported engaging in deliberate self-harm within the previous year. Alarmingly, this prevalence was much higher among females (11.2%) compared to males (3.2%). Furthermore, 12.6% of self-harm incidents necessitated hospital admission.
