You could also try switching to rewarding yourself rather than needing pain. Another thing to try is exercising when you feel you need to feel something. Not only is exercise good for you, it releases endorphins which make you happy. Try going for a long walk or a run the next time you start feeling like you need a release.
You know.. you're really good at helping people.. There should be more people like you in the world. I believe you'll make a change in the world. I wish you luck
