Zapping the urge: can brain stimulation stop teen Self-Harm?

NCT ID NCT07152925

Summary

This study is testing whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help teenagers who struggle with non-suicidal self-injury (like cutting) gain better control over their impulses. Researchers will compare real stimulation to a fake (sham) version in 60 teens aged 12-18. Participants will receive two short stimulation sessions per day for one week, while their self-harm urges, impulsivity, and mood are carefully tracked.
