Self harm urge ko kaise roke?

Agar aapko self-harm karne ki urge aa rahi hai, toh yeh samajhna bohot zaroori hai ki aap akele nahi hain aur isse deal karne ke tareeke hain. Yeh mushkil ho sakta hai, par aap in urges ko control karna seekh sakte hain. Neeche diye gaye steps aapki help kar sakte hain:

Self-Harm Urge Ko Kaise Rokein:

1. Pause karein aur "15-minute rule" apply karein: Jab bhi aapko self-harm ki urge aaye, sabse pehle khud ko rokne ki koshish karein. Ekdum se kuch karne ki jagah, khud ko 15 minute ka time dein. Is dauran, kuch bhi mat karein. Bas observe karein ki aapko kaisa feel ho raha hai. Aksar, urges thodi der mein kam ho jaati hain ya badal jaati hain. Is time mein aap koi distraction technique use kar sakte hain.

2. Strong distractions use karein: Jab urge bohot strong ho, toh aapko usse divert karne ke liye kuch intense activity chahiye.

   • Ice cube technique: Ek ice cube ko apni mutthi mein tab tak pakdein jab tak woh pain ya sensation aapki urge ko override na kar de.
   • Rubber band snap: Apni wrist par ek rubber band pehnein aur jab urge aaye toh use halka sa snap karein. Yeh physical sensation deta hai bina injury ke.
   • Intense physical activity: Running, jumping jacks, ya push-ups karein.
   • Loud music: Apne favourite music ko loud volume par sunein.
   • Creative outlets: Drawing, painting, ya writing karein.
   • Smell something strong: Jaise ki peppermint oil ya strong perfume.

3. Apni feelings ko identify karein: Self-harm aksar kuch uncomfortable feelings ko cope karne ka tareeka hota hai. Try karein ki aap identify kar sakein ki aapko kya feel ho raha hai – kya aap sad hain, angry hain, lonely hain, ya confused hain? Jab aap apni feelings ko samajh jaate hain, toh unse deal karna thoda aasaan ho jaata hai. Ek diary mein likhna bhi help kar sakta hai.

4. Apne support system se baat karein: Akele rehna mushkil ho sakta hai. Jab aapko urge aaye, toh kisi aise insaan se baat karein jis par aap bharosa karte hain. Yeh aapke dost, family member, teacher, ya koi counsellor ho sakta hai. Agar aapko baat karne mein uncomfortable feel ho raha hai, toh bas unke saath rehna bhi help kar sakta hai.

5. Professional help lein: Self-harm urges se deal karne ke liye professional help lena bohot zaroori hai. Ek mental health professional (jaise ki therapist ya psychologist) aapko healthier coping mechanisms sikhane mein aur underlying issues ko address karne mein help kar sakte hain. Aap in helplines par contact kar sakte hain:

   • Kiran Mental Health Rehabilitation Helpline (Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment): Toll-free number 1800-599-0019. Yeh helpline 24/7 available hai aur multiple languages mein support provide karti hai.
   • Vandrevala Foundation: Helpline numbers 1860-2662-345 ya 1800-2333-330. Yeh bhi mental health support provide karte hain.
   • NIMHANS (National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences): Crisis Intervention and Suicidal Prevention services provide karte hain. Unke general helpline number par contact kar sakte hain ya unki website nimhans.ac.in par details check kar sakte hain.

6. Ek safety plan banayein: Apne therapist ya kisi trusted person ke saath milkar ek safety plan bana sakte hain. Is plan mein woh steps honge jo aap follow karenge jab aapko self-harm ki urge aaye. Isme shamil ho sakte hain:

   • Distraction techniques ki list.
   • Trusted logon ke contact numbers.
   • Professional helplines ke numbers.
   • Woh cheezein jo aapko calm karti hain (e.g., music, pet).
   • Apne aas-paas se harmful objects ko hata dena.

Yaad rakhein, urges temporary hoti hain aur aap inko overcome kar sakte hain. Har choti jeet matter karti hai.
