I'm tired--too tired to be a danger to myself--and random thoughts come to mind when I'm tired. Aside from the obvious risk of serious injury and the fact that it's a bad coping mechanism, what do you all find wrong with SI? I'm just trying to wrap my head around the issue and I think I need some other perspectives. Is it really all that bad if a person is relatively safe about it? How does it compare to alcohol and drug use/abuse in terms of danger to the individual and addictive qualities?

Maybe this is a dumb inquiry. I am tired after all. Just thinking out loud I guess. Tell me if I should shut up.
