In a sense, yes. Except I don't mean it to sounds as though I'm searching for permission, more - 'does this seem reasonable?'. Obviously I will not actively set out to SH and will continue to try to use more healthy outlets for my emotions like exercise etc. But I am questioning the balance and priorities in my life at the moment and wanted to simply talk through my thoughts. I hope all this doesn't sound too bizarre! Of course my ultimate goal is to not have to SH but perhaps for the moment to allow myself to do so wouldn't be that much of a big deal if it allowed me freedoms in other areas of my life?
