TW self harm

I do not understand why cutting myself when I am in a calm, stable, content mood, is any different than body mod and scarification. Why is it so looked down upon in one situation and not in the other?

I’ll be honest I don’t know why but I am depressed as fuck and angry at the moment so my apologies in advance. I sometimes do things to myself as a self way of acceptance of the way things are. However it’s a short term feel good that caused more harm than better. I know I’m confusing but what I’m saying sometimes we are the only person that excepts us for who we are so we do things way beyond normal thinking it’s ok but it’s not. I constantly battle going to the dark side but I know I’m my heart I have the ability to change but I just don’t know how at the moment. I hoped this helps. I’m sure you’re an awesome and beautiful person.
