What are you diagnosed with and why do you hurt yourself

I am diagnosed with depression and also BPD. However I and many others believe the BPD diagnosis is wrong so lets just say my diagnosis is depression.
I first starting SI as a way of coping because my world pretty much flipped upside down when I was 14. When things are going bad I still turn to SI to cope at 24. I use it as a form of release, otherwise the negative feelings just build and build and I get overwhelmed. I also use it to prevent myself from doing anything worse....
