𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘚𝘬𝘪𝘯 𝘗𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳? A skin picking disorder is a condition that causes a person to pick at their skin for various reasons.

In light of #BFRBAwarenessWeek, only one of these five conditions is considered to be a #BFRB; excoriation disorder (aka compulsive skin picking).

Each diagnosis is important to consider because they require different treatments to settle the pervasiveness of the condition at hand.

dysphoria be like: oh you liked an outfit for a special occasion while you were in the store but now you're getting ready for the actual event? suddenly you're a potato sack and incidentally picking at ur skin to claw out the flaws and also have you thought about all the ways you aren't what you want to be?

If I made a Dermatillomania Discord Server would anybody join?

I really need some people to talk to about this...

My therapist wants me to talk about and think about picking. Obviously I also want to do that to some extent that's one big reason I am in the therapy in the first place but it is so hard to talk about because it has been so many years of letting it happen now... It is hard to shine a light on it. I am trying to want to stop and trying not to beat myself up when I do pick because thinking about stopping and trying every now and then to put my hands down is better than always giving in ofc! So here goes. Wish me luck on this painful journey of healing (torture more like, but I better do it some time!)

Skin picking

It has definitely been a while since I have posted about my skin picking. So here is an update. I was using this gel my doctor gave me to help with the acne, dark spots, and scabs on my face and back. It definitely helped lessen the bumps that I had. I still have issues and will need to go see a counselor to talk about the skin picking because it is an issue that I can’t stop on my own and that has been going on so long.

Some days I don’t pick at all and then other days I do pick. I definitely have noticed I pick a lot less than I used to. Sometimes it is hard because my back gets itchy and I start scratching. My fiancé has been really helpful through all of this and my journey. My parents and my fiancé’s parents are having more difficulty understanding what I am going through and sometimes say the wrong thing or don’t believe that I really have an issue with skin picking.
