I am 15 and have been self harming for over 5 years now. I have now accepted that this is my coping method, and it is going to be very hard to get over this. I generally use a knife or razor, but i have started taking overdoses of random pills such as caffeine. Ive heard that there is a drug you can be on to help you stop, but i dont know whether that would be suitable or not.

Also, I am currently being treated for depression, ocd and anxiety, and am on the drug sertraline, which i understand is an SSRI. The cautions with using it include, do not use for treating under 18 year olds with depression, and may increase risk of self harming and suicide in minors. Considering i tried to commit suicide a week before i started on the drugs, and my psychiatrist knew that, should this medication be right for me? Or am i just being paranoid..
Thankyou
