am i damaging my brain?

Seeking Advice

my favourite method of self harm is slapping or punching myself in the face and hitting my head against things because i’m angry at my brain.

i’ve been getting more headaches than usual and i keep getting brain fog and forgetting things and i’m getting worried that i’ve permanently damaged my brain or that i’m gonna get some sort of awful brain injury when i’m older :(

i just can’t stop it’s the only thing that somehow helps me a little bit
