Studi Literatur: Self-Harm di Kalangan Remaja

2025-05-03T13:04:08+00:00

Adolescence is a crucial transitional phase marked by physical, emotional, social, and psychological changes. One emerging issue during this period is self-harm behavior, defined as deliberate self-injury without suicidal intent in response to emotional distress. This topic is essential to explore due to the rising prevalence and its impact on adolescents’ psychological well-being. This study employed a literature review method by analyzing various relevant journals and scientific articles. The findings indicate that self-harm is triggered by psychological factors such as emotional dysregulation and mental health issues, as well as social factors like dysfunctional parenting and environmental pressure. Forms of self-harm vary, from skin-cutting to more severe actions. The consequences include physical injuries, feelings of guilt, social withdrawal, and an increased risk of mental disorders.

Moreover, family and social support play a significant role in the recovery process. A deeper understanding of risk factors and intervention strategies is expected to reduce self-harm cases and improve adolescents' quality of life.
