I self harm anyway, using methods I won't mention (I don't want to give people ideas, or remind them/trigger) but I was thinking about something just now.

When I'm cooking, if I accidently burn myself, I never go and put it under cold water. Sometimes I have, but most of the time I don't, because it's like, I don't know how to explain it, I want to keep that pain, that scar, just like I would if I did it deliberatley.

Would you class this as self harm, or just being stupid? :P
