My first reaction to being upset or mad wasn't to repeatedly punch myself in the head. I did it the other day and now I've got this huge bruise and bump on my head. I say I walked into a door or something..I make it up as I go along. It's not even a conscious thing I do, I don't say to myself "Ok, you're upset let's self harm".
My immediate reaction is "you're bad" and I punch myself before I even realize what I'm doing.

Kinda the same here.... But I do more on the top of my head (not visible like forehead or side of your face).
And sometimes I have to do it (yes HAVE to do it) to regain focus or to shake off worse ideas. |

 I can totally relate to the punch anywhere thing. Same here (but my head is the normal place for me). And I own THREE mini-doxies. They are awesome.... UNTIL one of them starts to bark - then all three of them start it and two have no idea why they are barking.

Yes, they are great yet incredibly STUPID animals sometimes. But there is no better tap-dog and LOYAL dog that I can think of.
BTW - "try" not to punch yourself.... you are young and have tons of good things waiting for you. Punch the morons who annoy you instead.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
