I have recently started hurting myself. I use a safety pin to do it. Since I don't want anyone to find out, I usually just do small cuts. I have made myself bleed before, but sometimes I just make deep scratches, and it is nothing compared to the pictures of slashed up arms I see or the scars all over my friends arms and legs. So I am just curious, is what I do considered cutting if I don't even make myself bleed very much?
