While I have self harmed, and can relate to your sentiment that there is something pleasurable about it I get much more pleasure from it being inflicted upon me by others. I learned this about myself when I got my first tattoo and ventured into BDSM shortly thereafter.
There is something freeing and therapudic about it for me. (Which is true of my being a submissive in general) it's kind of like the whole world stops and I can focus on one thing and all the voices and thoughts and chaos stop just for that moment. It's a relief and a brief pause from everything that makes my life hard.
