Is it normal to want to cut myself even if I don't feel anything? I used to do it all the time, but the urges come back when I feel nothing or when I'm bored. Like I'm detached from every thing. I feel numb for some reason but I don't think I'm depressed because I have nothing to be depressed about.

That happens to me too, I used to cut quite often but as I've stopped, I sometimes get the feeling to cut again. I don't know why I feel the need to, but I always do and like you it's usually when I'm bored or feeling depressed over nothing. The thing with self harm is that even if you're over it, you seem to want to do it still. I could be wrong, but I think it happens mainly like you're describing for those that have stopped. Subconsciously, I guess our body is so used to feeling something, when it isn't, it feels weird.
