Okay, i headbang when im upset like crazy still as an adult especially to the point ive drawn blood, caused huge bumps, knocked myself out etc... but sometimes i headbang because i crave that hard pressure against my forehead afterwards I do feel a whole lot better, but i dont do it to the extreme like when im upset its hardcore, but when i just crave that pressure its like with a book maybe once or twice, nothing big... Anybody else ever headbang because you crave that pressure?

I bite myself occasionally, but I have never done any headbanging.

I headbang when I'm mad because of the pressure and it's relaxing. When I crave pressure, I randomly hug my friends and they don't know why they're doing it, but it helps. I usually just end up hugging myself though.

I used to rock out to Faith no More or techno music when I felt like that. Dance music helped me get my grrr out a lot when I was younger. A good stomp makes me feel a whole lot better.

When I was younger, I used to do that. I stopped after I learned about pugilistic dementia.

I can satisfy that with light pressure directly on top of my head. There's a "sweet spot" that feels good to press or scratch lightly.

I used to do that. To the side or back more than the front though.

Isn't there SOME way you guys can get the release without going something so bad? I don't mean to insult you, I just hate to see nice people hurt themselves. And Age1600, you seem nice. I like the fact you are taking time out with your "little" etc....
