People who scratch themselves have often experienced mental trauma and use the self-injurious behavior as a “valve” to get rid of the perceived excess pressure, because the pain brings relaxation. Often the forearms of the person are affected, which from the karmic body assignment have to do with fear of punishment. This means from a spiritual point of view that the person “punishes” himself by his self-injurious behavior. As a rule, he punishes himself because he does not feel anything. Before a person feels nothing, especially if he does not feel love, then prefers to feel pain. This person in his childhood has experienced punishments such as deprivation of love, isolation, being locked in his room, curfews or not getting food, because he did not behave “properly”. Laceration is the soul’s cry for attention.
