Implication

Qualitative research reveals social stigma and resistance in self-harm behaviors among adolescents, highlighting cultural pressures.

Key Points

  • Self-harm is a response to social pressures and cultural expectations rather than an individual pathology.
  • Findings indicate that social stigma marginalizes adolescents, deepening their sense of isolation and affecting mental health.
  • The study employs in-depth interviews and observation in Mataram City to explore the social dynamics surrounding self-harm.
  • Implications suggest the need for inclusive social policies and transformative discourse on adolescent mental health.
