Anyone catch The Wright Stuff this morning? they were talking about self harm and Matthew said ''with one of our top soaps about to start showing a self harm storyline we were asking for your experiences''.

I'm guessing Hollyoaks although they did it not so long ago.

Its true and its EastEnders.

Can't say anything other than that but you will know by the end of the month. Its also nothing to do with the Beales.

I hope not. I thought they were doing the whole comfort eating thing with her? although self harm might be understandable in her case.

I think it might be Lauren as a result of all the Stax coming to light.

I find what Matthew Wright said a bit strange, seeing as Hollyoaks have already done a storyline like this with Lisa (Gemma Atkinson).

It will still be interesting all the same. I think it will be Lauren as well, but we'll have to wait and see.

The eating disorder storyline is a different one and I agree in that the self harm one is probs Lauren (She deserves more screen time!!)

Hollyoaks are bringing an emo in. I would think it was that.

Yeah I'm guessing Lauren. She might find it hard to cope once the affair is revealed.

I think it would be better if it was an adult character we saw going through it rather than a teenage one. The reason I say this is because all too often it's suggested that it's something that just teenagers go through when it actual fact it is something that many adults go through as well.

I remember Family Affairs briefly having a self harm storyline with Siobhan cutting herself after being accused of Josh Matthews murder. They didn't really do anything with it though, I think Pete caught her and yelled at her and that was it.....

What about Steven Beale? or maybe Chelsea starts to cut herself in prison?

Lauren sounds a more plausible subject to me.

If I remember rightly its to do with Heather and her eating, I think we're due to see her "comfort eating".

I'd also like to see an adult character in this storyline. As someone said above, it isn't just a teenage problem - many adults suffer with self-injurious thoughts and behaviours, and I'd like to see this in a soap.

I'd be quite interested to see Heather as the self-harmer, although perhaps that would be too close to home for me - as I'm a comfort eater and a self harmer. They do seem to have made her character a bit too comical though, I can't see her heading to such a dark place - she just seems to be there to make a few jokes with. A waste of a character really, I think they could have done a lot more with her.
