I struggled with suicide and homelessness
My name is Nash. I’m 19. I love football, country music and my dog. I’m also a proud Torres Strait Islander!
I started experiencing mental health challenges in my early teen years. I was bullied at school and started to self-harm. I thought that males were meant to bottle things up and I didn’t show any emotions.

My life ins't perfect but it's way better than it was! My parents were never there for me. When my past comes up my BF and partner helps me work through it.

I was slowly giving up. Ready to do something really stupid. By reading and getting advice I realised there are things I can do to overcome my problems.

The struggle I have to face every day is there but I know I'm not alone. There's support and advice always out there.

If I had a chance to talk to someone earlier I would have. Because all you need is for someone to listen.
Calm Harm
Free
Young adult feedback
Calm harm uses the principles of “urge surfing” and “behavioural activation” to target individuals who have the urge to self-harm. Whilst these principles are appropriate for this population, they may require more active involvement to be satisfactorily implemented with this, a low help-seeking group.
Expert feedback
The app has a great idea in attempting to prompt users to participate in distracting activities while they ride out the urge to self harm. The app is quite passive, however, in that it expects users to complete each activity completely on their own. Some activities could easily be facilitated by the app but not so easily by a user. One, for example, involves rolling a dice. Whilst the app could easily incorporate a function to roll a dice, a user is very unlikely to have a dice on hand. In this way, I believe the app places a little too much onus on the user and does not deliver as much functionality as it could. That said, it functions well and is a great idea.
