Is it healthier for a capacitor to be discharged to itself or to "ground"?
To discharge a capacitor there must be a circuit, a loop, that passes through both terminals of the capacitor. Whether there is also a connection to some "ground" makes no difference to the process. What you might be seeing is that in a specific circuit, one terminal of the capacitor is already connected to ground (or any other bus / …
