I know what you mean. It's so easy to abuse ourselves physically when we feel so terribly about ourselves emotionally. Your awareness of this might change things. It isn't that you'll stop doing these things today, but you'll be more mindful of *why* you are hurting yourself, and perhaps that awareness over time will help you stop. In the meantime, why don't you do something nice for your body? Since you have so much tension stored in your muscles, why don't indulge yourself with a massage? At the very least, slip yourself into a nice, warm bubble bath. It's never too late to start nurturing yourself.
