Dear you,
I am sorry if you are going through a situation where something could be hurting you. However, I understand why you could be doing something that could be harmful. We aleays have told to deal with difficult emotions and situations, even if those told have negative side effects or they are not that sustainable in time.
And yes, many things could harm us even if they don't make us bleed (physically). And we do many things to us which have negative impact on our health in general.
For instance, watching negative news on a daily basis, doing too much sports, eating too much sugar, or hitting ourselves in different ways...
More than everything, i think it's important to have compassion with the way our body learnt to deal with stress and at the same time look for other tools to encourage ourselves to keep evolving into a more resilient way.
