Addiction? - January 9th 2010, 02:58 AM

((I wasn't sure whether to put this in the addiction fourm or this one, move it if it's wrong.))

Can self-harm be considered and addiction?
I scratch my arms and burn my skin.
As a New Year's resolution, I'm going to stop.
Thought my friend thinks I did months ago...

I get urges all the time.
And, today I threw the little belt things I'd scratch myself with out.
But I'm still trying to part with the lighter.
Whenever I'm sad, I keep thinking about hurting myself.
And in everyday activity, I look for things that can cut my skin easily.

So yeah, can SH be considered an addiction?
