Labelling something like cutting as 'good' or 'bad' is counterproductive. It increases guilt when you do relapse or try it for the first time, like 'Oh my god I'm a terrible person why did I do this'. I think it's definitely healthier to talk about your problems or express them in some other way. Cutting is a short-term fix and that's all. I hesitate to classify it as anything else.
