None of those go against self-preservation.

Do you know what we are even talking about?
Define self-preservation please.


...surely you are not serious...

It's obvious to me that you do not understand the concept in the slightest.

If you would like to know more, I would recommend speaking with a professional of human behaviour and how the brain works.
No.

You don't understand my point.
You state that purposely inflicting pain to stimulate the mind is bad because it goes against self-preservation. However, fear, which has the same function as pain, is not bad to purposely bring upon one's self. You gave no real reason as to why.

Self-preservation is the human behavior towards survival. Pain and fear are mechanisms that help avoid dangerous situations. However, you have to explain how stimulating these senses for "fun" is bad when there is not danger present.


Fear is a completely different thing from inflicting self-harm.

Gather around the campfire, once it goes out, it's out for good.

Can you actually provide reason to this?

Fear is a mechanism that makes an organism avoid dangerous situations.
Pain is a mechanism that makes an organism avoid dangerous situations.

Many people partake in activities that cause fear, for fun.
Some people partake in activities that cause pain, for fun.

The only significant difference is one leaves a mark.

Use your head. I'm sure if you think hard enough you can find it out on your own.

If you can't... sad.

If what you know is actually so elementary than it wouldn't be difficult to type it.

You will never understand the concept if I tell you, that much is certain through the exchange I have had with you so far- which is why I insist you discuss this with a professional who will say the same thing I have been saying.

You will at this point argue any logic at this point int defence of self-harm.

That is an issue and I will not waste my time further addressing it.

I love how when on the largest source of data and information in history, you resort to simply telling me to ask a professional. I hope you know that if you at least had a basic understanding of what you said you should be able to defeat my arguments with ease. If logic can trump every single one of your arguments, it's because they're illogical.
