Masochists? They enjoy inflicting pain upon themselves.


I've never quite managed to get my head around self harm: I understand the psychological reasonings why - but I've never been able to quite separate the thought that if a person would, can and does that to themselves: what would they be capable of doing to another person if they really 'snapped' -which is as irrational as self harming in the first place.

Can't be a good place to be in though for the person involved (or those around them that love them and have to see their mental suffering manifesing itself so physically).
