NSSI is not currently found in the AnKing Step Deck.

Explanation of Amboss question 5DaiU5 states
"Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is defined as intentional self-injury to the surface of the body (e.g., cutting, burning, scratching) without suicidal intent and is commonly seen in adolescents. The severity and frequency of the self-injury and the presence or absence of suicidal ideation or other psychiatric comorbidities determine how NSSI is managed."
