I'm doing 4 things
I don’t get that bad.
Well..it’s not like 24/7 I’m picking.
It’s usually when im bored or nervous/anxious.
I’ve never got scabs from it.
The worst I’ve had is it bleeing and not being able to type or tie shoelaces properly because it’s so sore.

I always say to myself “Right, I’m stopping at Christmas” or “Stop on my birthday”
But it never happens :/
I just do it subconciously which is the worst part.
I’ve been picking off the skin from the tips of my fingers. I don’t know when I stared. But once I start, there’s no stopping me. I think I usually do it because I’m bored. But sometimes I just do it without knowing I am.
It gets to a point where people tell me to stop, but I still have a flappy bit of skin on my fingers that WILL annoy me if I don’t get rid of it. So I get rid of it, which creates another flappy bit, and so on.
It gets so bad that all my fingers are red and sometimes bleed. It hurts sometimes but for some reason but I just find myself to keep doing it.
