In recent years, non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) has garnered widespread attention globally. In 2013, non-suicidal self-injury disorder (NSSI-D) was included as a clinical diagnosis of mental disorder in the fifth edition of the American Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). A retrospective examination of both Eastern and Western histories reveals that self-injury, influenced by various factors such as religion, aesthetic ideals, and social trends, was once accepted by the general public in different cultural and historical contexts. Clinical medicine only began to focus on NSSI behaviors at the beginning of the last century. Today, with ongoing research into this behavior, more scientific diagnostic criteria and intervention methods for NSSI have been established. Based on this review of the history of NSSI behaviors, this paper summarizes the current state of clinical practice regarding NSSI both domestically and internationally, aiming to provide new insights for the future refinement of NSSI prevention and intervention practices.
