I know some people do self-harm because it’s an addiction, because it gives them pleasure, etc. and no hate to them, but I do it to punish myself. My “inner voice” is very loud all the time and I have trouble making it go away. I do self-harm sometimes like digging my nails into my arm because I deserve the pain for messing stuff up. I’m also not sure if it’s pretentious to call it self-harm because I’m too much of a coward to use a blade or leave scars even though I deserve it.
