[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AFAIK I am NT. However I hit myself as a child and still feel the urge. Two motivations based on feeling condition love when young. 1. Hurt myself to show I know I am bad/disappointed you and hope it will make you forgive me and love me again 2. Punish myself to make stress of disapproval or conflict stop. As in see I punish myself so you don't have to please stop it. Not saying OP is doing anything wrong just my experience. Husband is horrified by this and made me promise never to do it. Only slip up now and then. [/quote] Thank you. This is very interesting and to a certain extent, I understand the logic and it might apply to him. A lot to think about. What would have helped you though? If you could control how your parents interacted with you as a child, what would you have them do? [/quote]
