From what I know about SI, it is usually done when someone is in a dissociated state. The meds that you took defiantely could have put you in such a state. Yes, SI can become an addiction.
I hope you are in therapy. Calling a therapist and working through those feelings is a better way to stop the cycle of SI.
SI can have a cycle. Negative feelings bring on the urge to cut. The cutting can give a moment of high. After the short high, the feelings of shame bring on more urges to cut. Part of the tx is digging at the initial feelings that bring on the cycle. Finding healthier coping skills is key to stopping this pattern.
