Is it normal to like to feel pain?

A couple years ago I was hit with a phone charger, everyone asked me did it hurt i honestly answered no. Of course it hurt! But i liked it. Ever since I've been picking at scabs making wounds bigger. I love a good punch to the arm. Or the feeling when you hit your side on a table it all feels so good. I havent told anyone and i want to know if its normal or not.

    I have done it. It's common not sure if it healthy. I bang my head on the walls. PS I suffer from depression at times I'm currently medicated for it.

    It brings tears to my eyes. It hurt so much. But some pain dulls the feeling of other emotional pains I can't change , l hope you are okay .
    One last comment, I feel your pain!

    It's not "normal," but it's not uncommon, either.

    Self-mutilation usually stems from deeper problems (i.e., Depression, low self-esteem, disdain for one's self) and should be addressed through Pschotherapy (just a fancy term for talk-therapy).

    I've been there and done that, so i would certainly recommend therapy. Nothing wrong with it, it simply makes you stronger.

    Stay strong! :)
