Self restraint by a free choice, made by your complete being, to refrain from doing something is not what I'd consider self censorship. It's an ethical concept, and I'm sure the Bhagavat Ghita (Dutch transliteration) talks a lot about it in connection to Dharma. Self censorship is if one side of you is compelled to say something whereas another part of you forbids it.
