YOU CAN'T STOP ME FROM SUING MYSELF

I was looking to the Greek-English dictionary the other day and one of the words that randomly crossed my eye was the word masturbation… Who needs a dictionary for that…? Anyway, apart from masturbation there was also given an alternative word for the same meaning; the synonym was a compound word: self- abuse. So, do these two words have the same meaning? Masturbation equals self-abuse?
Conclusively,does that give me the right to sue myself for being repetitively self-abusive?
