I have never cut but I would be willing to bet it is very much like addiction. Is it the endorphin high that brings the relief? Behaviours can be addictive. Maybe being addicted to endorphins that bring relief.
Maybe try reading the 12 steps of AA and see if you could apply them to cutting. Just a thought.
