Cutting
It is repeated self-harming on purpose. A person suffering from self-harm cuts or scratches or beats herself/himself in order to get over some problem or mental stress. After cutting herself/himself s/he feels immediate relief because the body (in order to lessen the pain) produces endorphin (hormone which makes the person feel happy). But the relief does not last long and the person feels bad about the self-harming and cuts herself/himself again to feel relief and this way gets trapped in a never ending circle. Anyway, the circle can be undone if the person admits her/his problem and accepts professional help.
