Self-harm increasing after Netflix series

There is evidence that there’s been an increase in self harm among US high school students since the Netflix series 13 Reasons Why was released.

That’s according to the International Association for Suicide Prevention.

The show tells the fictional story of teenage girl who leaves behind 13 audio recordings after taking her own life.

Naoise Kavanagh from Youth Mental Health Website reachout.com says people watching should talk about it with loved one.
