Newtus, are you still here?

Ever thought about trying a bit of transference with these feelings. What came to mind was bungee jumping, might take care of your urges in a safe controlled way.
What a great idea! At least sounds like one to me. I had a chance & didnt/couldn't ... way too many possibilities for broken wrists, torn shoulder tendons, etc.

Another thing I do sometimes is to put my hands or feet in a big bowl of ice. Leave them in there until they go numb, then take them out. The really cold ice is a strong physical sensation, then the blood moving back into the vessels hurts a fair amount. It's a physical, painful distraction from your mind, but it's not ultimately doing any real harm to your body.
I've had frostbite. Major pain.

Thank you both. Newtus is special. I don't like it when he's hurting in badyou can ways, but I have to admit I depend on him to tell be which are which. Slowly with his help I think I'm learning the difference, which is so important to him.

Newtus, check in if you can...
