Hey everyone ! My name is Malika, I am 22 years old. I have a funny accent because I come from Switzerland (french speaking part). I am studying to become a social worker and I hope to be a voice for people struggling with self harm. I started on Instagram 4 years ago now and now I'm on RUclips ! I post videos on self harm education, awareness and recovery.

#selfharm
self harm sucks i relapsed a couple days ago. also i love your hair and your eyeliner is perfect. also i love your accent and i am learning french as well!
Relapses happen - came as a shock to me last year after almost 11 months "clean".
i was always told this growing up. I was raised Christian
Yep. I have been emotionally abused by churches too. I have been told I'm demon possessed and that unconfessed sin is why I am struggling. The whole confessing my sins in regard to the basis of my mental illness wasn't a push when I was in the Catholic church though. It was in Penticostal churches. I needed to "turn from my bad mindset and behaviour" But self harm wasn't always acknowledged as connected to mental struggles. It was said as being "the cool thing" to do for teenage girls.
I was really little when I gave up on praying because my prayers weren't being answered. It was about the abuse I was going through. My family looks at me like a failure because I'm no longer in the church. But I've been abused for the fist 16 years of my life. I'm 16 now.
I’m a Christian and have had periods of self harm. I appreciate how respectful this video was handle. My experience with the church and sh was non-existent because my parents never found out what I was doing and a poor experience with a Christian friend, before I began self harming, deterred me. My opinion stems from my personal relationship and history with God and examining scripture and I believe self harm to be a sin - as is anything that is not good. However, it is clear that God takes away the burden of guilt from our sins and pushes us towards healing. This world is fallen so there are things that are beyond our control, so it is not shameful to ask for help. Prayer is one component, but it is rather foolhardy to test God by rejected professional help. Those professionals will help you stop and break the self destructive cycle. I was alone when I first started self harming, so my relationship with God played a big role in my recovery. It helped when I hated and didn’t value myself to submit to a benevolent higher power.
Hi I’ve stopped self harming thanks to your info etc. I subbed some months ago I thank you a lot
I'm so proud of you, much love❤
@@emme9606 Much appreciated 🤩
I’m at a point in my life where I feel lost and don’t know what to believe anymore, so now I’m searching and seeking answers. Now I just call myself an agnostic.
Same
Hi! I'm Catholic and an ex-selfharmer, honestly, I've never heard the Catholic church even MENTION mental health. I've never said anything to a priest or religious person other than my friend about my ex-selfharm, so I really wouldn't know anything. It is NOT a sin, people are suffering and they are valid. I think that there is a BIG problem with saying that it's a sin, because like you said I'm the video: guilt. No one shouldn't feel guilty about self harm!
Thanks for the video and I relapsed a couple of days ago and it was the worst and Im thankful for your informative videos. I also really like ur eyeliner and hair colour. 😊Loads of love 💕 😘
My mom told me I was going to hell for cutting myself ;-;
Im just so gratefull that your chanel exist...A lot of people dont understand what we (self harmers) are going trough...they are SO mean to us and i dont really know why....and Im happy that there is finally someone. You are amazing and thank you!!❤️ (sorry for my english, Its my second language 😅❤️)
I am Christian since I was a little child. We always went to church on Sundays with my family. I've never asked that question but my mom asked a priest if I should tell about my selfharming while telling my sins. I was really afraid but the priest said that I don't have to. I bet he couldn't understand what I am struggling with but at least he didn't blame me for anything
YES! YES! YES! Love both that video and your reaction to it. This is so good ahh.
I am a Christian, and a self harmer. I personally believe that it is a sin, but honestly it is very hard to stop. I don't want to sin, can't stop.
I remember when I went on a mission trip with my youth group (non denominational christian), and we were in a completely different state. I self harmed while on the trip, and my pastor had to of course, tell my parents, but he also talked to me and was understanding and worked with me to ensure it didn't happen again while on the trip. He didn't look down on me, or tell me it was a sin, he worked with me instead and was more understanding than I thought he would have been.
I love your channel
When you mentioned the God is Grey video I thought it said God is Gay
lol
"There are no accidents"
@@stylishmusic4012 Only happy mistakes
God is gay
I like your hair!
Self harm is a sin, I’m a Christian and I am a long term self harmer. Self harm is a sin and it’s hurts God that you are hurting yourself. However every single person sins and sin is a part of everyone’s daily lives. All sin is equal in Gods eyes (obvi not in humans eyes). But I am working with God and my therapist and psychiatrist (all things that God has blessed me with access too)
I was and am being raised Christian and even though I would have been loved and helped in my church with self harm I didnt understand that and I wish I did reach out to my amazing church honestly I constantly wore jackets and covered my wrists and arms I pretended that the cats did that to me I thought it was a sin becuase of my stupid Christian school (I HATED THAT SCHOOL WITH EVERY CELL IN MY BODY) It took me a long long time but I finally told people and I got help now I dont cut but I still do other things sometimes and I still do want to cut sometimes but yeah im doing much better now because I have help
Will I ever be clean? I don’t think so even if I’m not self harming it’s like one of the things I always think about
I’m a devote Catholic, and I can say that this speaker is a great example of what a good catholic is. I’m aware that the Church is corrupt and there are countless horrible people within the religion, but this speaker is amazing. He did actually say if self harm is sinful. He said (which I agree with) that self harm isn’t sinful if it’s done because of a mental illness or loss of control, but it is sinful if it’s done willingly and you have control over it. This goes with anything really. An act is only a sin if you are doing it willingly and with intent.
If god as they say is omniscient, what is the point of confessing about self harm? God already knows about it and he's keeping a record of everything for you know the after. My record got one more line and I 'm still wondering what to do ... life is a mess
I think it depends on how extreme in religion they are, with if they think praying will take it away, etc. If that makes sense
Are you a smurf?
Being a smurf actually sounds cool-
lol blue hair is cool bro lol
Bet
5:53 Remember guys: the good part of you was created by God, the bad part has NOTHING to do with God 🙏. Christianity is so fucked up
