yes, its very unhealthy. It's called self-injuring. Self-injuring is ANY form of hurting oneself purposely.

It is definitly unhealthy! It may be safer than causing yourself to bleed, but it is still extrememly unhealthy.

It's not the cutting/scratching that matters (although those are very serious), but it is the REASON that matters. The fact that you feel the need to make the scratches and to cut are what is serious. You need to figure out why (if you don't already know) you are doing this, and get help. Whether you need to talk to a friend, family member, teacher, whomever can help is who you need to talk with.

I'm being really hypocritcal because I am a very masochistic (self-destructing) person, but you aren't going to get any better by only scratching instead of bleeding. Do what I'm doing, talk to someone, anyone, who can help ease the emotional pain causing you to create the physical pain.

I'd say yes. Any type of destructive behavior (such as making scratches on your wrists) is unhealthy.

Umm...yes? Causing any type of physical pain like that on yourself isn't healthy. Just because you don't bleed doesn't make it any better. Maybe a little safer, but not any better. Even if it just start with that, it could turn into something more.
