How do you measure what upsets somebody enough to make them feel as though they may self harm though?
I know a girl who did it because she got bullied at school, she used to pull strands of her hair out (Trichotillomania) because she was so miserable in school - Another person my Mum used to give a lift to work used to self harm because she was ill and struggling with money and she felt self harming was a way on controlling her pain. Sorry to babble on but it's just examples of my point.
What I'm saying is different things can set different people off, what you and I view as gentle prodding or a bit of nothing could seriously effect another person.
