Well, I think almost everyone engages in things that could be defined as self-destructive at least some of the time. Stuffing your face with an entire sleeve of oreos is arguably self-destructive. Driving too fast without a seatbelt is arguably self-destructive. Listening to music at levels loud enough to make your ears ring is arguably self-destructive. I think most people have moments where they need to self-destruct a little, even if they don't think of it in those terms.
Alcohol is a common way to dull or distract from the pain of living, which is what self destruction seems to be about.
