Is it normal to be aggressive towards myself?

I only ever get aggressive towards myself and no one else. For some reason for myself specifically, when I get frustrated I often resort to hitting myself repeatedly as hard as possible on the head. I've been doing this for a long time and usually break down into tears after doing so because of the lingering pain afterwards. I thought this was a normal thing to do when all by myself for the past year. Is there something wrong with this? I've never gotten any injuries doing this, I only use my fists and sometimes get a migraine afterwards.

    That needs to stop, you could get brain damage from hitting yourself in the head (depending on how hard you hit), it would even be better if you hit another body part for that reason. Although not self harming may be better I get the need to cope

    It’s not normal but it’s not stupid either, check in with yourself if you’re worried about being destructive, and what this means in relation to your thoughts and other behaviours

    I hit my thighs and scratch myself to the point of tearing skin. We’re just nucking futs.

    You should probably argue this one out with yourself, and if the one of you can’t agree with yourself then fight it out like a man. Start by giving yourself a punch in the mouth then see if you retaliate against yourself.

    That's a pretty stupid thing to do... You sure you don't just like the pain in some messed up masochist type deal?

    Why wouldn't you be aggressive to yourself. That fucker just hit you, go get him!!!

    What you need to do is repeatedly punch yourself in the head whilst screaming "what do ya fink of that ya faggut" so that you understand you're well hard and not to be messed with.
