Discussion Do any of you cut yourself like self- harm?

[brazilianautistic]

I don't cut myself, I hate the feeling of the blade, I'd say it's a "sharp" feeling if you know what I mean, and I don't like it.
The thing that works the best for me is punching my self,(punching is a "round" feeling for me) and I can choose better spots if I want bruises or not (I like to see the bruises because they remind me of the pain, they make me punch my self less)
When I don't want any bruises I punch my torso (abs and ribs) they don't tend to bruise much because of the amount of muscle, which means I get to punch more, and they get sore, and the soreness calms me.
When I want bruises I punch my shin and the hip bone, they bruise easily without hurting much.
As for why I started it? It numbs they pain, the feeling and thoughts, and that's enough for me.

Pois mulher eu tb sou brasileira!!
Eu entendo super! Mas eu nunca cheguei a me "cortar" msm, antes eu me arranhava, mas aí eu descobri q eu odiava a sensação, aí eu comecei a me socar mesmo, depois disso nunca mais fui a mesma, como eu escrevi melhor na mensagem de cima
De qualquer forma, é bom ver outro br aqui! Ainda mais outra mulher (quer dizer, ruim ne, pq se vc tá aqui vc tb n tá mt bem da cabeça :/)

Yes, but a tip from my pt:
the scar tissue you're placing on your body will not slide and move w your skin like skin would. What's causing that itching is the sensation of that tough scar tissue being pulled upon by the much more flexible skin. The trick to making it less sensitive is called "scar tissue mobilization" which, over time, will make it softer and stop that tugging/itching feeling.
