I cut and hit myself last night...I have been trying not to.
Letting myself do that again after being in sort of a flashback for over 24 hours...
I knew my internal pain would end just as soon as I did it. I did, it did.
Now I feel...pretty happy. A little weirded out, but ok.
Last night I was saying "I need to die," over and over and over.
...
I needed to be punished, I guess?

You don't need to be punished. Instead, I really hope you try and find something else that helps in place of SI--that sounds like a tall order, I know, but I'm working on it too. I get a little "high" afterwards and feel extremely calm and in control, but the feeling always wears off. It'd be nice to have a life where I could have that feeling most of the time and not have to worry about it wearing off, so that's what I'm aiming for I guess.
Hugs.
