    Doing this might be common in your peer-group, but you know deep down this is a sign that something is seriously wrong in your life and in your head. No healthy organism deliberately damages itself.

    The psychology of self-harm is complex and it can be difficult to escape the habit once it's formed, especially since one of the brain's natural responses to pain is to trigger the release endorphins, and the effect of these is very similar to that of opioid drugs.

    You can have my pain if you enjoy pain so much. I ended up tripping up (yes up..) the stairs last week and ended up messing myself up. Plus I'm sick. So yay. Neck hurts. Body hurts. Headache. Bruises etc.

          DIO is often this pleasant in his/her responses. There is a corn cob in his/her ass.

          It's just that nobody cares about your pathetic complaining especially when you didn't even answer OP's question. If you want to complain, do your own post.
          Egocentric, attention seeking much?

              I'm not mocking her misfortune, I'm against her complaining where it's not the place too.
              She's so egocentric she didn't even answer the poor OP's question and just focus on her pathetic complaining. If she wants to complain, she can just make a post about it. Not sabotage other people's post with her egocentrism.
