Besides the obvious, tauntings and teasings by other males, there is still a fair amout of sexest thought involved, when other men see fresh cuts/burns etc. They assume that it is a womans problem and that the person who does it must be gay, this is not true, many men who do it are heterosexual, because self-harm is not limited to any set group of people. it is simply a coping tool.
 

Sleep problems
Alot of men who have been mo*ested, or r*ped, have the following problems:
 

• Often waking up in a panic.
• Nightmares about the a*buse or mo*estation.
• Not being able to get back to sleep after a nightmare.
• Finding that having sex, or the thought of having sex, triggers them.
• The slightest noise disturbs you.
• Insomnia

Things to do, if you feel the urge to Self-Injure before bed:
 

• Take a long, warm bath to calm yourself.
• Play with bubblewrap (works wonders)
• Listen to soothing music.

A crisis can hit at any time it usually begins when:
 

• You begin getting memories about what happened to you.
• You start getting memories about what happened to you.
• Something very scary happens like you are the victim of an assault. This is scary in itself and can also be a powerful

     reminder of the past ab*se or mo*lestation.
• You begin to talk about what happened and it begins to 'hit home' how much you've been hurt.
• Things remind you of the ab*se, like having contact with the person who ab*sed you, the death of the ab*ser, or

     significant anniversaries such as birthdays.
• You start to get other memories you didn't know were there. Other things go 'wrong' in your life like relationship

     break-ups, financial difficulties, problems at work, and possibly social problems.
 

• Tense and freaked most of the time.
• Like you're not safe.
• Extremely numb, like you can't feel anything.(this is when most self-injure to ground themselves.)
• That you can't cope with things like you usually can.  (agian, when your more likely to si. )
