So my urge to stop picking was only half-hearted. I think that is my biggest problem. Since most of my picking is on my scalp I can get away with it easier. My main concentration right now is on loosing weight. My body size is out there for all to see constantly. I can hide the few spots on my face and part my hair carefully to deal with my scalp. But obsessing about my weight(which has dropped a bit to 205) and worrying about money, school, and grad school has only made my picking worse. For now I am just trying to get through without spending too much time picking..

I have been with my bf for almost 3 and a half years. His best friend and my good friend met a girl knew her for less than 5 months(part of the time she was overseas) and proposed. She was his 2nd gf and he had only just started dating sophomore year of college. People keep asking me when its going to happen for me and my bf, Matt and its driving me nuts.I hate having to answer that I don’t really know. Then they ask me why not. GRRR I am wondering if its just never going to be right for us since it hasnt happened yet. I’m his first gf, and we’ve talked about marriage, but I know he wants to wait at least until we graduate in May before even proposing. I love him but I am worried that I will spend my life waiting for him to mature, or that it will never happen. Then I will be searching, but never find anyone as wonderful as him.

I didn’t even know that anyone had started a group just for scalp picking. I think its good to be able to see others with this issue, because it is a little different than picking other areas on your body.
