Hey ((((me05))))))

I hadn't heard of it, but I looked it up (and finally found some info)... it is self-injuring by nature, but it's probably seen as more of a "fad" or a trend that a lot of teenagers (or younger) play that could be dangerous.

If she's unable to *not* do it, then that would be worriesome. If she's just seeing it as "fun" ... well, I wouldn't know what to say about that, because I don't think it would be fun.

An addiction like self-injury is where you're doing something dangerous to your health/well-being and you're unable to stop for any long period of time because it's addicting (since it is being used as a coping mechanism). That's my personal definition anyways.

Hope that helps.

I played it but i don't see it as self injuring, if you're just giving yourself eraser burns for the pain then ya but not when played as a game.
