I started self harming out of curiosity but eventually I began to do it to regulate my emotions. When I was feeling bad.emotions the pain and blood from cutting helped to focus my mind on one thing and stopped my negative emotions. Another reason was that I had.so much going in my head that my self harm justified my feelings of pain. Sometimes though I would self harm for the.sake of doing it. Self harm to me stupidly made me.feel big and in control and made.me think I was in control if my emotions. Thankfully Ian in recovery now.
