You're reaching Cam. This isn't the dark ages. A cut on the arm doesn't cause "morbid blood poisoning" anymore. I'm with Dinah. Cutting is a release that I find very helpful. It's like therapy only better.
Just MY opinion.

> Dinah - The skin is an organ (check Trivial Pursuit™) that protects other body organs from infiltration from bacterial and viral parasites. By opening the skin, you are allowing an access point for potentially life-threatening infection. Opening the skin (ie. producing lesions) is the "only" way many fatal infections can gain access to the body. For example, HIV and the flesh-eating staphlococcus bacterium are two that come to mind. Really, unless it is absolutely necessary, skin should remain intact, to maintain homeostasis.
