Hi all, I've name changed for this thread.
I really need to stop picking myself. I pick my face, my arms, the top of my legs, chest and back. I've got recurring spots in all these areas and scars and blemishes where I've just scratched away.
I often say to myself that I'll stop, starting right now (like tonight) and whenever I do, I feel like my skin is crawling. I catch myself touching my face looking for a piece of skin to pick off or running my hands over my arms. I just don't know how I can do it.
I've started to notice people looking at my arms when I wear short sleeves and I can only imagine what people are thinking about the content scabs on my chin.
Has anybody else experienced this problem? If so, what did you do/do you do to curb the "habit"
Thanks in advance
