Is it normal that i hit myself when i'm really angry?

I don't do it every time I'm mad, just sometimes when I can't keep it in anymore. It doesn't even have to be a big thing to be angry about, like when my parents take too long going out and I'm the one babysitting. I pull on my hair, bang my head on the wall, claw my face, and stuff like that. .

    How old are you? Have some self-control.

    Its called throwing a temper tantrum like a baby. Try learning healthier, more adult ways to deal with your frustrations. I sure hope you are a kid because doing this as an adult would make you special ed.

    i did this also a few times.i cannot say if its "normal" because there is a subjectively and an objektively sight for that,but the objectively sight is the best in that case.yes,its normal because it seems you dont have a valve.try making sports or go to gym to handle the anger.if you cant handle it directly do some pushups or something until your energy is completely depleted.

    PS:i dont like it when people say its normal/unnormal and then dont explain why.you can help that person,say what he can do against it and not say "have some self-control".take it god damnit serious.because its obviously a problem.if it's not a problem,then you have nothing to ask.ik the question is only "is is normal" but its a LOT more helpful if you say what this person can do to handle this problem.even if he's a teenager,he deserves a bit help.

    My boyfriend does this. Maybe try some anger management?

    When I stumble over my words, I tend to whack myself in the head with my hand.

    When I get embarrassed, I punish myself by pinching my arm... It's a bad habit...

      When I get nervous I scratch my neck because I used to wear a necklace that I would play with. Now that the necklace is gone, I have nothing to hold so I scratch my neck.
