Self Injury and Piercing

Do any of you have issues with self injury? I do. I am 42 yrs old and have no piercings. I have been a memeber of this group for some time because I often think about piercing as a safer more sane way to experience the pain I inflict on myself. I think about how the piercing could be a way to get the same comfort and high I get from self injury. Any advice?

Hi...I SI,
I couldn't compare piercings/tats to si though....it's not the same for me. And I don't think it should be. Many people who SI...though say it's a good 'alternative' to SI ...I think it's just a more socially acceptable way to harm. I wouldn't get a body mod to replace SI...but that's up to you...and if you feel it's safer than go with it...piecings are good that way because you can get them removed. (also if you want more replies...ask on the Self injury support group)

Yep... I si
it's difficult to differentiate for me what is what sometimes often I think of mods I want to do and keep them in my head then if I want to si I will go get one done... Don't always work tho and sometimes I get mods when there's no si involved it's really in how you see it and why you do it IMHO Yea... Si group will get you better response

Hey I SI too..
I find body mods - tattoos & piercings alike can help surpress the urges to SI rather than replace the SI itself. But that's just my personal expeirience with it all (:
