Anyone interested in contributing to a book on self-harm?

Ah here you go, I am a male and I have tried to "hurt myself" but for none of the reasons you state. Only because of my pure lack of happiness in life. I would not say it was ever for attention maybe some of it was but that was not the underlying problem. The underlying problem came down to the fact that I was massively depressed and nothing seemed to want to help. Everyone who try's to commit suicide or harms themselves craves some form of attention whether it be a way to get back at someone for mistreating them or a way for people to remember them before they feel they failed at life and had nothing to offer. While some people do it purely for attention others do it less for attention and more for a way to escape there hellish lives. Depression is a monster that eats away at your very heart until you are no more.
