Question: How have i grown to like pain? will i stop liking pain when i feel better mentally?
ive grown to like pain for some reason, and by liking pain i mean when i cut to relieve my mental issues it feels good for days afterwards, im getting professional help but idk i doubt myself and im skeptical to if things really do get better, and so far its just been talking (i get evaluated, diagnosed, and prescribed medication in a few days though)

Answers:

Well there is a good reason that you feel you "like" pain. When you get injured, on purpose or not, your body releases endorphins to help you cope with the pain. Basically you're getting an adrenaline rush which essentially will give you a "high" that makes you feel good. This is why you'll hear about drug addicts cutting themselves. It's important not to cut yourself for the obvious reasons, it's hurting your body and is a sign of depression, and because you can actually develop an addiction to it. So keep working with your professional, you'll start feeling better soon and tell him/her about your cutting, Good luck.
