Homeopathy and Self-Injury
Abstract
Self-injury (self-cutting or cutting) is a highly prevalent condition among adolescents and young adults and it is an important risk factor for suicide. Conventional therapeutic proposals have little evidence of effectiveness. This work presents three cases of adolescents with severe cutting that improved after individualised homeopathic treatment.
