When I'm bored I get urges to hurt myself. To punch myself in the face, cut myself, hit my head off the wall. I can't because I promised I wouldn't. But I still get urges, especially when I'm bored. Normal?
I get self-harm urges, too (that's what it is, self-harm, in case you didn't know). However, it's not normal, and you should probably speak to a professional about this.
Wanting to hurt yourself is never a good sign and could be a sign of depression. I would advice you to talk to a doctor about it they may be able to help even if its just someone to talk to. Also you could try and find ways to keep active. Find a hobby and keep your mind working. That way you wont be bored and wont have the feeling of wanting to hurt yourself.
Used to do the same in high school. I stopped when I moved to university and stopped being bored - I started drinking quite heavily, though.
I used to do the same. Don't. My whole left arm is covered in cuts and burns and people notice it. Not worth it.
