The rise of self-cutting and overdosing in the 20th century is linked to the sweeping changes in mental and physical health, and wider political context. The welfare state, social work, Second World War, closure of the asylums, even the legalization of suicide, are all implicated in the prominence of self harm in Britain. The rise of 'overdosing as a cry for help' is linked to the integration of mental and physical healthcare, the NHS, and the change in the law on suicide and attempted suicide. The shift from overdosing to self-cutting as the most prominent 'self-damaging' behaviour is also explained, linked to changes in hospital organization and the wider rise of neoliberal politics. Appreciation of history and politics is vital to understanding the psychological concerns over these self-harming behaviours"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000745422 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000745422 650_0 $$aSelf-mutilation$$zGreat Britain$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000745422 650_0 $$aSelf-injurious behavior. 000745422 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMillard, Chris, 1983- author.$$tHistory of self-harm in Britain$$z9781137529619$$w(DLC) 2015014210$$w(OCoLC)909320410 000745422 830_0 $$aMental health in historical perspective. 000745422 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000745422 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-137-52962-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000745422 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:745422$$pGLOBAL_SET 000745422 980__ $$aEBOOK 000745422 980__ $$aBIB 000745422 982__ $$aEbook 000745422 983__ $$aOnline 000745422 994__ $$a92$$bISE
