Instagram's New Tools Allow Users to Report Others Considering Self-Harm

And partners with Seventeen for #PerfectlyMe campaign

Instagram has developed tools to help people considering self-harm, and as part of the new initiative, Seventeen magazine and Instagram are welcoming everyone with open arms with a new hashtag.

"We listen to mental health experts when they tell us that outreach from a loved one can make a real difference for those who may be in distress," Instagram said in a release. "At the same time, we understand friends and family often want to offer support but don't know how best to reach out."
