Non-suicidal self-injury is a prevalent pathological behavior in clinical settings,significantly impacting both physical and mental health.Non-suicidal self-injury is closely associated with the abnormal perception of pain.Pain can be classified as physiological pain and social pain.In contrast to healthy people,individuals engaging in non-suicidal self-harm exhibit lower sensitivity to physiological pain but higher sensitivity to social pain.Their physiological pain thresholds are elevated,while their social pain thresholds are reduced.The alterations in pain sensitivity led them to alleviate emotions through a"pain to counter pain"approach.The abnormalities in pain sensitivity among individuals who engage in non-suicidal self-injury are closely linked to their social and psychological factors.Self-criticism,depressive symptoms,and adverse childhood experiences are all associated with the pain sensitivity of non-suicidal self-harm patients.
