I had a little moment of knowledge yesterday.
So we were talking about musikk and the importance of lyrics. To me their not allways that important more so for her.
Then she suddenly drops the bomb.
When i was a teenager i used to cut myself
I was like no no no damn it!
Then we talked about it for a while. I i asked her if she could explain why she did it. blablabla
Then she said that sometimes she could not even feel the blade when she did it.
Whe know ESFPs like to meet people, doing new things, variation.. in short likes to get stimulated.
That got me thinking because i know another girl way back that used to do that herself.. now... She was a horny girl most likely a ESFP too. very social and outgoing. And so is this ESFP.
She said she had replaced it with sex. So i figured it was a type of stimuli that you got from doing it.
Started googling for the natural painkiller produced in the body.
Now.. the natural pain killer in the body is endorfins. You can not give endorfins directly as they will not breach the blood/brain barrier easily so whe use opium, morfin or heroin etc. Im guessing you could get extra endorfins to work by using MAOIs but thats just a wild teory.
" excitement, laughter, pain, consumption of spicy food, love and orgasm, and they resemble the opiates in their abilities to produce analgesia and a feeling of well-being."
Coffee and chocolade seems to do things too. it was stated somewhere else that they would counter act the effects of acupuncture.

Now we know that if anyone cuts them self they do do it for a high. they are a junkie. And that person needs either excitement, laughter, pain, consumption of spicy food, coffee, chocolade, love or orgasm.
