Re: self harm for the heck of it..... - February 26th 2014, 04:50 AM

I think it's great you haven't for awhile. Self-harm releases endorphins which is what gives you the rush and also what makes it addictive. And that's why you wanna do it even when you aren't sad. In this situation, I think the best thing to do is use your coping techniques that you have been using to fight the urges. Anything from exercising to using some things on the self-harm alternatives list. Even go for a walk if you feel overwhelmed with the urge.

Stay strong!
