Hey there,

I am eighteen years old and I still struggle with self harm. There isn't any sort of age limit on someone self harming, so know that you aren't alone in that sense and there isn't really a "Growing out of it." It's more of learning how to cope with what is going on so you DON'T self harm. You'd have coping mechanisms in place to solve what problems are going on and deal with your triggers.

As Cassie said, this is a slow and gradual process that takes time, so don't feel too bad about this! You will get there.
