Have a college lecture on self-injurious behaviour next week.. - March 15th 2014, 01:40 PM
I'm a Psychology student and I love it, but I've just read that on Thursday the topic of our Behaviour Analysis lecture is to do with self-harm. I know that obviously it will be dealt with professionally, and I'm looking forward to it but I'm a little bit worried that I might find it triggering. I know statistically in a class of 17 I'm very probably not the only self-harmer or ex self-harmer but obviously no one in my class knows and I don't want to end up being visibly distressed or anything.

Are there any other psychology students who might have been in a similar situation?? or any advice??
