Reportedly it can get much worse than that: no pain at all. There's a reason why so may people with major depression hurt themselves. They might tell you they rather feel intense pain than nothing at all.
Dorian (YT channel Of Herbs and Altars) has a video on the same concept just with eating disorders instead of depression. If that's a topic you're interested in, I recommend you check it out! It's called "Nostalgia... For Your Eating Disorder?"
