"'This book is a giant leap forward in making self-harm understandable to professionals and self-harmers alike.' Marjorie Orr, Director, Accuracy About Abuse 'A ground-breaking book in the subject material and presentation. It's easy to read, yet helps the reader understand the complex nature of self-harm. The life stories are authentic and incredibly moving.' William Stewart, author of A-Z of Counselling: Theory and Practice '...an ideal book for those who self injure, particularly those who also have an eating disorder or alcohol problem. Sutton deals with what is a delicate subject with great sensitivity...this is a book that could change lives. Reader review - Amazon"

An absolute must have for Sufferers, their Family, Friends and Professionals alike!!!!!,
By Milly (uk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Healing the Hurt Within: Understand Self-injury and Self-harm, and Heal the Emotional Wounds (Paperback)
Wow, quite a spetacular book! Written with such understanding and with such indepth knowledge it is one of the best self harm books on the market. Each section is broken up into small chapters so although the book is the size of a textbook it is very easy to read. Jan has written this in simple language that is easy to understand, whilst still using research to back up her claims and ideas. It is therefore an essential read for mental health professionals.
It provides the voice of the sufferer throughout, with the help of poetry, stories and pictures. Thats what makes it so different it doesn't speak from the medical model or the social model, it is simply the voice of the self harmers and the authour Jan has simply provided a space for this to be heard. Alot of new ideas about self harm are sensitivley discussed and explored. This book really is extensive and deals with every aspect of self harm including help for friends and family. It is a book that comforts me, understands me, accepts me and believes in my battle for recovery. I hope you find the same in your copy!

my sister last self-harmed (aged 50 plus) a couple of weeks ago. A knife wound requiring 14 stitches. This book helped me - impotent, loving, useless - to look again at what's going on.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Healing the Hurt Within: Understand Self-injury and Self-harm, and Heal the Emotional Wounds (Paperback)
This book hit me like a sledgehammer. Very deep and thought/soul searching. A lot of it is over my head but mostly hit the mark. Makes you examine reasons why, the symptoms and early warnings that things are not what they should be, but a hard book to accomplish reading given the size, takes months to get through. Self harm wounding can be as damaging internally with emotion as much as bruising, cuts and slashing. A lot of introspective thinking here, watchout, do not take the subject lightly, it will surprise you!
