#acne picking

[tortuga-stims]

Dermatillomania/Excoriation disorder life hack I accidentally discovered: Picking at an orange peel can offer great relief or catharsis from urges, especially if your derma is pore-focused!! Peel the orange and squeeze the little dimples as if they’re pores, and orange oil will usually come out like sebum! You also get to smell the nice scent of the orange :)

Anxiety Culture is picking at the acne on your face because it makes you anxious to think about people looking at it

Oh shit you found me out- /hj

I have this same habit and its so bad ugh I wish I could stop.

I really empathize with you anon on this one /srs

I can't stop picking!!

Yes I know,this is a very bad thing to do. My hubby constantly reminding me about how I just spread the bacteria even more every time I pick (⌒-⌒; ) but the thing is, I CAN NOT STOP! Especially when I’m in front of the computer or watching tv,it’s like I’m doing it without even realizing it. I tried to stop but it's so hard ╮(╯3╰)╭

Acne picking, hair pulling. You will not control me.

Find out...

when you have the urge

why you have the urge

what the urge is

Then find ways to treat that.

Here are mine for keeping my hands busy...

mixing up drinks

cross stitch

writing

researching

Here is what I am doing to treat...

hair and face masks

keeping hair pinned up so I don't investigate

brushing well so knots don't trigger me.
