Question - (19 January 2013) 1 Answers - (Newest, 19 January 2013)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have picked at my skin for as long as I can remember. I have done some research and it turns out that there is a name for what I have: . I've looked up ways to try to stop it and they are all very wise and helpful but the problem with me is that most of the time I don't even know I'm picking! So obviously these self-help tips are useless when I don't even know that I'm doing it.

I just wondered if anyone else has the same problem as me and whether they have learnt how to notice when they're doing it or if anyone has any advice?

Thank you

R1 agony auntI have some similar obsessive habits. I've noticed they are worse when i'm bored, don't have anything challenging to do... finding something to do which occupies your hands is the key I think. Or try to stay busy.
