I don't believe its about trying to block out what we feel or over-expose ourselves either. I think if we can learn better strategies to cope with how we feel we would be much more able to embrace whatever emotions we experience.
And i am a severe self harmer. I define severe by the regularity and seriousness of the damage inflicted. So i know that i, of all people, need to learn better coping techniques - my issues with SI was a big contributer in what lead to my diagnosis but this of course varies hugely between people.
