Growing up as a quiet person, you might just assume that you are an introvert right? Especially after watching so many of our psych2go videos about introversion, it's very assume that we are just introvertly. But what if we told you, that quiet people are not necessarily introvert? Introvert meaning is more about the psychology of how our brain functions when we are around people. For introverts, introvert get drain around others. But quiet people on the other hand, do not get drained at all. In fact, in this video, we will cover some of the signs that you might just be a quiet person and not an introvert. You could be both quiet and extroverted, you never know.

What is self harm? Self harm, also known as self injury, is deliberately hurting your own body, such as cutting or burning, in a way to cope with emotional pain, intense anger or frustrations. But what about emotional self harm, also known as invisible forms of self harm?

Through this video, we explore these hidden forms of self harm, offering valuable insights into the psychological impact they can have on individuals. By recognizing the warning signs and understanding the dangers, we can begin to address and prevent self harm effectively. The goal of this video is to break the stigma surrounding self harm and pave the way for healing and understanding.

DISCLAIMER: If you know someone who may be self harming or if you're concerned about your own well-being or that of a loved one, it's important to be aware of the signs and seek appropriate help. Remember, you're not alone in this journey. Together, we can promote mental health awareness and work towards a safer and healthier society.
