I feel like there’s very little representation or books about guys who self-harm. There are so many about teenage girls but there are so few about guys at all.
I’m not too picky other than that I want it to actually be mentioned or addressed and not something I have to scrupulously interpret. I’d prefer a fictional story but it doesn’t have to be (mostly I don’t want like a self-help book or psychology book), and preferably not fantasy or sci-fi.
Him dealing with other dark topics and struggles (like suicide, depression, anxiety, trauma, sexual assault, etc.) are very welcome.
I’ve read A Little Life already. It was fine. I would be happy for something similar.
