It's not a healthy coping mechanism.

It's addictive and there's still always the chance of hitting a vein no matter how careful you are and like Emily said there's still the chance of infection.

I understand how you feel because I've questioned this myself. It's always harder to think of it as a problem if it's you doing it. If one of your close friends or a family member told you they were doing it, would you still think it wasn't a problem? I know I'd definitely be concerned.
