Do NiMh batteries self discharge if left unused for a period of time, or
is this just a myth?

They do - as do Ni-Cads. But by how much seems to vary wildly by make. Or
whatever. In other words you could have some which appear to take a full
charge and last ok when used near immediately - but discharge very quickly
when not used, as it were.
