Self abuse is anti-social, aggression still natural.

When I cut myself I feel so much better. All the little things that might have been annoying me suddenly seem so trivial, because I'm concentrating on the pain

I’m not really worried what people think about me. Because I judge myself harsher, and on more strict terms, than they ever could probably.
