I made it two days — 8 months ago
but then failed miserably =(
It was almost easy to stop once I set my mind to it,
but it was unfortunately a lot easier to start again.
I’m going to keep trying.
Good luck to everyone!

I’ve been doing this since I was a little girl of maybe 3, and I’m now 16; my face, my head, and my ears. I find the easiest way for me to stop is to everyday do it a little less, and slowly they begin to heal. As of now, things are going a little better. Since I found out thaat this is related to my anxiety disorder, it has made me want to stop more. Everyday I used to say to myself ‘I’ve got to stop doing this,’ but it never worked out that way. I researched it online and was really suprised that there was a name for it. Wish me luck, I am hoping to make it a month without picking and then from there stay consious of it so I don’t start back up again.

I never really thought about this as a disorder, just as a part of my everyday life. I’m really hopeful that this is something I can stop.
