According to the Mental Health Foundation self-harm is the direct, deliberate act of hurting or injuring your body, but without necessarily wanting to die - it’s a way some people cope with intense or very difficult emotions, or overwhelming situations and life events.
French film director Alex Anna decided to share the story of her own mental health battles and self-harm.
She chose to do this in a unique way - she made an animated documentary. She joins Jesse to talk about it.
