    A shrink can't stop that for you and talking won't change you. That is a deep seated problem you have. Best solution you are going to find is "redirection". Redirect your need to harm by replacing it with another action. Sounds easy, huh, not. Its hard to acomplsh, but if you focus all you can on redirection, you might have a fighting chance. From experience comes opinions. I don't want to say how I harmed myself.

    dont do what i did and turn to drugs, you will be more miserable than you are now. believe it or not.. talk to someone.. some people even use sex as an escape, but later down the road you will regret that all too when youre older.. talk to someone.
