The term 'non-fatal deliberate self-harm' (DSH) has evolved as a result of confusion surrounding the terms 'attempted suicide' and 'parasuicide'. While the latter two terms imply some relationship with suicidal intent and death wishes the term DSH does not and is therefore preferred. A study was undertaken to identify high-risk groups and significant precipitating factors for DSH. During the 12-month period ending 31 December 1985, 147 cases of DSH were seen by clinical psychologists at Northdale Hospital, Pietermaritzburg. Single people between 16 and 25 years and housewives constituted the high-risk groups. Authoritarian parenting and resultant conflict appeared to be a very significant precipitating factor in the former group.
