Why is s/h so satisfying? Mostly every time I do it, it feels so satisfying to do. And seeing the damage after is satisfying to, so much to me that I want more scars and more visible scars. I know that's normal, but it feels so wrong. I mean,, it is. It's not a good thing to do to yourself. Idk. Just venting.

      Some neurodivergent people can use self harm as a stim because the appearance and sensation are still just controlled stimulation. The best way to get past it is by replacing the stim with a different non damaging one. Like the blood, scarring, bruising, ect? Use a paintbrush, marker, makeup, or paint pen on your usual SH spot to get a similar effect, with the added bonus that while you can just do something as simple as lines in paint you could also do something more intricate and creative. You could even learn to do special effects makeup if you explicitly like the gore parts.
