The answer would be A. Self-injury.


Self-injury is also known as self-harm, or self-mutilation. This behavior is usually linked to deep distress within an individual. Although there is no way to pinpoint the exact cause of this type of behavior, it is generally seen as a way for the individual to seek attention, control emotional pain, and the like.
