Mouth?

[HeroesAndCons]

So when i get angry i bite the insides of my cheeks and mouth and then i eat something with salt or citrus and it burns
i do this purpously
is this self harm
and am i the only one that does this

[Kaius]

Anything that causes harm to oneself is deemed self harm, so yes. I doubt you're the only one that does that, so no you're not alone.

[Fiction]

it is self harm and i sometimes bite the inside of my mouth... but i've never eaten something with salt or citrus to cause harm. I have put stuff on cuts that will cause them to sting though.

Yes, anything that you do to yourself to cause pain is self harm. I used to do this, and I used to put stuff on open cuts to make them skin, and I'm sure a lot of others have done this, so no, you're not alone at all.

I used to bite my cheeks and things, I still do but I dont notice that i'm doing it, I do it when i'm shouted at, or anything where i'm upset. I dont see it as self harm for myself because I dont even realise I am doing it.

[TheCrimsonSlash]

Yes. I do this when I want to self harm in public. I did it during therapy last week and had to gauze my mouth when I got home. I use to to stay in control.
