Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is an increasing mental health issue among adolescents. General practitioners and pediatricians play a crucial role in detecting, evaluating, and managing these behaviors. This article aims to provide recommendations for the first line surrounding the young person, such as the appropriate stance to adopt and the use of a safety plan, for effectively managing NSSI patients. It takes into account the often-present interpersonal hypersensitivity in these patients and includes strategies for working with families and within a multidisciplinary network.
