Repetition of non-fatal self-harm stands at around 20% annually and is associated with much distress and many unresolved interpersonal problems. It is likely that any reduction in repetition of self-harm will be mirrored by a fall in subsequent suicides. The Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention blueprint for a National Suicide Prevention Strategy (CASP) has identified those who have presented to hospital with non-fatal self-harm as a high risk target group to reduce suicide.
