I finally understand why people self harm. It always seemed bizarre to me. But using physical discomfort as a diversion from unbearable emotional pain makes perfect sense now.
Hi I just stumbled across your blog. I'm a recovered cutter, so I know what it's like to be at a place where you want physical pain to divert you from emotional pain. Cutting becomes an addiction. It takes over you to the point where you have to cut to avoid any sort of emotional situation. I wouldn't wish that addiction on anyone.
