People who self-injure have a variety of thought distortions. They typically believe that they need to be punished for past transgressions, that their bodies are ugly and unacceptable, and that the only way they can control their lives is through self-mutilation. This set of cards helps self-injuring clients understand how to correct their distorted view of themselves and their world, and how changing their thoughts can be an integral part of changing their behaviours. The set contains 50 cards that have common examples of dysfunctional thoughts relating to the disorder. On the back of each card is a rational response to the dysfunctional thought, as well as a behavioural assignment to reinforce rational thinking and responsible actions. The set also includes 50 write-in cards for clients to identify their own specific dysfunctional thoughts, as well as a rational response to each thought. Comes with a CD that contains copies of the cards to print out as worksheets, and also 12 Thought-Changing Forms to further treatment.

This training manual offers a method of involving young people who self-harm, and those staff who seek to support them, to achieve four key aims. Aim 1 To provide opportunities for all of us to think about our attitudes about self-harm Aim 2 To increase our understanding about why children and young people self-harm Aim 3 To seek out ways to tackle the stigma commonly associated with expressions of mental distress Aim 4 To ensure the involvement of young people who self-harm in the design, implementation and evaluation of local self-harm protocols It does not seek to be a ‘one fit all’ solution, but it is hoped that this manual will support the provision of co-ordinated, consistent and respectful services to address the mental health needs of children and young people who self-harm.
