What are these weird scratches on my face?

Lately, I’ve been waking up with these bizarre scratches on my face—marks that definitely weren't there when I went to bed. Sometimes they even seem to pop up out of nowhere during the day, too, without me bumping into anything or scratching myself. They mostly show up on my forehead and around my ears; they're these bright red-purple streaks, about two cm long and less than a cm wide, looking strangely uniform. 😲
Has anyone else dealt with something like this? Who should I talk to—like, a dermatologist or someone else—to figure out how to stop this from happening?
😕

Just scratches? Or maybe something more like this:

Seriously, go see a dermatologist!

And check out this one—it looks perfectly even: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h-CkPnSUL1...94d08ff79f.jpg hehe!

It doesn't look exactly like those photos, but it’s close—maybe like two parallel lines, sort of dark, similar to those early-stage streaks you might see. 😲
I actually watched this documentary about similar scratches supposedly left by ghosts, so I can't help but feel a little uneasy, haha. 🤣

It isn't quite an exact match to those photos, but it’s in the ballpark. Think more along the lines of two parallel lines, maybe a bit darker, almost like early stretch marks starting to form. 😲

You're doing it to yourself. Go see a doctor.

Yeah, I know—I definitely need to see a doctor about this. But do you really think it’s possible to scratch my face up that badly—completely unconsciously—without feeling any pain?! Freaky...

Yeah, I actually think you can. Stress, nerves, or just being worked up—it's all capable of doing that.
