Every month, an estimated 200,000 Australians deliberately hurt
themselves. They cut, scratch, burn and sometimes even break bones. It's
called self-harm, and it peaks in teenagers and young people. The
Silent Epidemic explores this dark and often secret behaviour, asking
why more and more people are turning to self-harm as a way to cope with
life. Interweaving their personal stories with scientific enquiry, The
Silent Epidemic casts a unique lens onto what is fast becoming a problem
that can no longer remain hidden. In response to the growing numbers, a
group of Melbourne scientists are hunting for a radical solution to
self-harm with a world-first experiment. The Silent Epidemic charts
their progress: it is both a wake-up call, and ultimately, a story of
hope.
