As I struggle to find ways to keep the site active while on my internship, I'm admittedly engaging in a bit of a cop out here and simply directing you to another site.  I found an interesting post by Mitch Prinstein of the University of North Carolina, one of the world's leading experts on nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), on Psychology Today.  I highly recommend reading it if you're interested in the topic.
