You need therapy: Such thoughts are not normal and need to be discussed with your physician. You may have depression and this can be treated with therapy or medication. A trusted individual may be able to help you work through your problems.

Self Harm: Have you actually engaged in self harm? Do you have any thoughts of committing suicide. Are you in therapy? If you are in imminent risk of suicide - call 911 or go the nearest emergency room. If you have not had a comprehensive psychological evaluation - that is quite important. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be very healthy.
