I cant speak for anyone else besides myself. But a majority of the time Im angry is over something stupid I did, or some mistake I made. "me" is the common theme for my anger. And most of the time I become angry at myself I feel the same way you are.

I used to hurt myself when I was angry too, when I used to do it, it was mainly for a distraction and so I didn't have to focus on what was truly going on around me.

You probably like the idea of pain so when you hurt yourself the pain will then take your mind off things

I am saying this totally from my experience..I might be wrong here..but it's because you need control..or should I say you need your control "back" because when you are angry..you are actually in control of the anger and by hurting yourself...you are finding a way to vent it out..the quickest way actually, which will give you your control back.

Most people believe it gets ride of stress but that is not the case. It just usually makes the person feel relieved. But what your really doing is hurting yourself.

Sometimes when you become angry you start to feel numb and the only way to stop the numbness can maybe be to hurt yourself. It is a way to stop the numbness. A bad way at that too.

Sometimes people would rather take out their angry emotions on themselves rather than hurting other people that they care about. .
