No longer cutting- scratching instead? - September 27th 2011, 01:28 AM
So I haven't cut since the beginning of summer, and I'm very proud of it. However, I have gotten urges, more frequent lately, although I've never gone through with them. Anyways, instead of cutting, I noticed myself scratching my arms. Not just normal scratching, but really hard. Not hard enough to bleed, but my arm stays red for a long time, and I don't know whether or not this is an acceptable substitute for cutting. Thoughts?
