Intentando superarlo

El primer paso para curarse es reconocer que uno está enfermo. En mi caso, después de muchos años, acepto que sufro de dermatofagia.

Satisfying things to do instead of picking

Cook a corn on the cob, let it cool and pop the cooked kernels.

Spread acrylic paint on a plastic palette or table (make sure it will come off first), let it dry and then peel it off.

Put Elmer’s craft glue on your fingers, let dry and peel it off (not only is it satisfying, you also can’t pick with it on).

Make/play with slime

Pick petals off of flowers

Crochet/knit/make a loom band project

Pop bubble wrap

Untangle something (headphone cords, jewelry chains)

Peel the paper off of crayons

Play with a stim toy

Peel fruits

Pour hot candle wax on a plate (let it cool!!!!) and pick it off

Crack open seeds/nuts

Pick those little seeds out of strawberries

Feel free to add more!!!!

Peeling off glue and candle wax... Hours of fun and enjoyment!

I remember when I was a kid I had a little soft plaster panel. It was so satisfying to scratch it... So,
