Amy Winehouse self-harming?

Amy Winehouse has sparked speculation that she is self-harming again by going out with angry red arm scratches on show.

The singer unveiled her scraped arms on a night out at the Bloomsbury Bowls with artist friend Blake Wood.

Amy recently gave extremely successful performances at the Grammy and Brit awards, but in a backstage interview she proclaimed her performance as 'shit'.

It is feared that her ongoing treatment for drug addiction and her husband's incarceration are both taking their toll.

Last year, the troubled star admitted to Q magazine she harmed herself as a child, and these latest photographs have prompted speculation she may have returned to the habit.

oh pleeaaaase - no more about Amy!!! I'm fed up hearing about her troubles - the woman should be locked up in a mental institution - not still be out there selling music!! She will only get richer to keep feeding her drug habit.

I just feel so sorry for her. I think she needs to get away from it all with a lot of support and love from 'good' people around her she could be back to her old self. She looked amazing on the telly last week on the awards, but still a little unsure.

I think that there has obviously been years of stuff that has been affecting her if she used to self harm as a child and she needs to get some serious help.

It would be a shame to lose all that talent for the sake of drugs.

I wish her luck and wish I could help her
