Review: | Gr 8-12 - "As the number of teens engaging in self-destructive behavior rises, it is vital to help those who are struggling with drug or alcohol abuse, eating disorders, or self-mutilation. The clear definitions, explanation of symptoms and what triggers them, and steps for coping with these difficulties make this video a good choice for high school health and science classes. Vignettes of teens coping with these problems are realistic, and some feature graphic depictions of self-mutilation. For students who struggle with these conditions, the realism will give them the feeling that someone understands behavior that, until now, they engaged in secretly. Some of the suggestions for dealing with self-destructive behavior seem a bit simplistic (exercising, getting enough sleep, eating a balanced diet, brushing off rejection, befriending upbeat people, expressing feelings in a healthy way), but teens are also advised to speak to parents and counselors or to contact a hospital or support group. A list of Web sites and hotlines is provided at the end. This is a valuable resource for counselors or adults working with troubled students."
