The List! Celebrities who have been known to indulge in self-harming!
Normally, individuals never harm themselves deliberately. But some hurt themselves for various reasons. This is not accidental but deliberate.
It is a manifestation of a psychological underplay and when severe it could also point to a psychiatric cause.
Some celebrities had suffered and struggled with this problem in their lifetime. Some have bravely opened up about their disorder and have overcome it while some continue to intermittently indulge in this behavior.
The list of celebrities who had this problem includes:
Megan Fox
Thirty-year-old Megan Fox from Tennessee is a brilliant actress and model. She was queried about this behavior by Rolling Stone Magazine. She admitted to the fact that she indeed used to once upon a time self-harm by cutting.
She had said:
“Yeah, but I don’t want to elaborate. I would never call myself a cutter. Girls go through different phases when they’re growing up, when they’re miserable and do different things, whether it’s an eating disorder or they dabble in cutting.”
Johnny Depp
Self-infliction of wounds is not limited to females. The famed actor Johnny Depp too was a victim of this psychological disorder. He has old healed scars on his boy of this self-infliction when he was young. Justifying his acts, Johnny Depp had said:
“My body is a journal in a way. It’s like what sailors used to do, where every tattoo meant something, a specific time in your life when you make a mark on yourself, whether you do it yourself with a knife or with a professional tattoo artist.”
