Summary: | Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) has been increasingly prevalent, not only within clinical populations but also notably common among adolescents in non-clinical settings. Numerous studies have underscored the significance of the family environment and its profound influence on the development of NSSI. These studies have explored the connections between emotion management difficulties and NSSI, as well as the association between negative family environments and NSSI outcomes. In light of these insights, the present descriptive qualitative study aims to provide an intricate understanding of the Self-differentiation experience among young adults with a history of NSSI. The study involved conducting semi-structured interviews with 13 individuals aged 18 to 25. Subsequently, the collected data underwent Thematic Analysis to identify overarching themes. The findings reveal that individuals with a history of NSSI encounter challenges when attempting to assert autonomy within the family unit and often experience emotional disconnection from family members. |
