Understanding Self-Harm: A Conversation on Self-Love and Perception
“Self-love is not something that you can do. And if you're having- you know you have gratitude journals.”
How often do we truly understand the link between self-love and self-harm? In this thought-provoking episode of Youth and Loud, hosts Roxy and Bianca dive deep into these critical topics. Roxy, a dedicated high school social worker, and Bianca, a coach for the ‘Youth You Program’, bring their unique perspectives to the table. They explore how self-perception shapes our mental health and the significant impact it can have on young people's lives.
Through candid discussions, they unravel the complexities of self-love and its sometimes painful counterpart, self-harm. The second half of the episode features Dr. Jo Roberts, head of suicide prevention research at Orygen Youth Mental Health. Dr. Roberts shares invaluable advice on supporting those who self-harm or are at risk. Her expertise offers listeners practical tools and compassionate strategies to help friends or family members in need.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting to better understand these sensitive issues and learn how to foster a more supportive environment for youth.
