Would you consider this self harm? (Slight TW)

I have pointy nails and I like to dig them into my palms because I like the way it looks and feels. Nothing too serious and the marks go away super quickly and I don't usually do it for more than 2 weeks and then I just stop and let them heal[image][image]

Don't do it to the extent you develope psychic powers.

I'd say it is but not overly concerning, it worries me this might be a "gateway" to more damaging behaviour

If you are not doing it to cause yourself harm I don't see how it would be.

Yes, this is a form of self-injury, just at a low level.

Dang that looks like it hurts!!

I wouldn't say it necessarily is.
I mean do you do it as a coping mechanism in response to emotional overload?
