But at the same time, I'm so used to doing things because there's a propose for it. So, I don't see how it why should a person injure themselves on propose if there's no true benefit to anyone.

Or, because of my thinking/attitude, I may never understand? I don't want to say something wrong and being viewed as the asshole for it. Never realized that self-injury was common in schools. And I can't understand this, even though I want to know why it's commonplace.

... or maybe I think too much. sigh.
I don't believe self injury was a thing long ago.... but with todays issues, struggles and NOT getting treatment - I think THEY THINK that is the way out.
It's not okay - you see it - you realized it - you have came here and can find ways to relive the strain of life in others ways K
Thanks for this!
