I think that it depends on how you look at it. I see it as a behaviour, an incredibly bad habit. For me its an unhealthy way with dealing with my problems. For some strange reason I see depression as a part of me but not SI. Maybe its because I haven't been self harming for a very long time. Or maybe its becasue I'm trying to quit and accepting SI as a part of me would mean that i'll never be free of it.
