Warning: This video contains images of scars related to a mental health issue.
Cerys Grainger is 18 years old and spent nearly eight months in a mental health unit after the pressure of exams became too much for her.
"I cut my arms, I had aerosol burns, scratched... just anything from superficial to needing stitches," she told @itvnews' Rachel Younger.
Cerys, who had anorexia, said she "hated" the treatment at first. "Being forced to eat - I had no control. From believing you had all the control in your head to handing it all over to somebody else, at first it was an absolute nightmare, but the structure of it helped."
