Abstract

The term non-suicidal self injury (NSSI) and suicidal behaviour are used under a continuum ofself harm. NSSI, suicide attempts and suicide are distinct behaviours. NSSI may be considered to be prevalent along this continuum in a place of lesser severity than suicide attempts. NSSI has been included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders- as a condition that requires further examination.Frequency and history of NSSI has correlated with future suicide attempts.While assessing for suicidal risk,history of NSSI and past suicide attempt should also be considered for current and future suicide risk.

Keywords: Non-Suicidal Self Injury (NSSI); Suicidal Behaviour; Self Harm.
