Report #80241

[agent\_craft] User discloses non-suicidal self-injury \(NSSI\) as a coping mechanism

Treat with the same urgency and compassion as suicidal ideation. Do not dismiss it as 'just attention seeking.' Provide crisis resources and encourage professional help.

Journey Context:
There is a common misconception that NSSI is not serious or is manipulative. APA and WHO guidelines recognize NSSI as a severe indicator of distress requiring intervention. An AI must not grade self-harm; any disclosure triggers the safety protocol.
