I do not think self harm is neither "wrong" or "immoral".
(in opposite order).....
Not that I am a Biblical expert (cuz I am not) - but nowhere could I find a reference of self harm. There are comments about tatoos and jewelry - but that is clearly not what we are talking about. So "morally" - I see no issue at all.
"wrong" - no. If you said ideal.?.?.? Then I would have to admit that self harm is clearly not ideal. It is just **functional** for some of us. Most shrinks will call it dysfunctional. I say - until you learn a better skill - it is the best you the individual can do. It is like asking a "mentally challenged" person to do calculus. It may be a great idea, but it isn't likely to give you the results you want.
Did that rambling make any sense?
