Self-Injury: You Are NOT the Only One

This site contains a great deal of information on self-injury, including articles, tips, personal accounts, and helpful lists of further resources.

This is a Web site created by Deb Martinson. The following is part of her description of the Web site, found in the "About" section:

"The information here comes from the five years I've spent listening to, talking with, and skills-coaching people who self-injure; peer-reviewed journals; books; internet surveys; and other sources (see references). Many people have told me their stories and contributed immensely to this site. Without their generosity, this page would be impoverished. If this site can help you feel as though your burden is no longer one you carry alone, I'll feel I've repaid them."
