Numbness: People who experience feelings of numbness or detachment might self-harm to feel something—any physical sensation can seem better than emotional emptiness.
Punishment: Individuals may self-harm as a form of self-punishment, feeling that they deserve to be hurt due to perceived failures, guilt, or shame.
Seeking Attention or Help: While not all self-harm is intended to elicit a reaction from others, some individuals might engage in it as a cry for help, signaling that they are struggling and need support.
