@xine that is good news that you have taken steps to reduce your access to dangerous tools and have steered yourself away from the type of physical harm you used to cause. That shows a lot of willpower.
It sounds like there is a lot more going on than meets the eye with behaviors that you describe. Have you been able to discuss these with a therapist, maybe one trained in DBT? I wonder if they would be able to help you understand your choices and perhaps make different choices that serve you better.
You sound like a resilient person and I commend you for enduring everything that you have gone through, while still seeking answers. I do hope that you can find something that better serves you, because you deserve peace. Wishing you all the best.
