Stop touching my piercing

I was touching it as I came across this. I really am trying to stop, it’s just such a novelty!

Don’t do it!

it’s not infected anymore!

But it’s not bugging me anymore, so I’m taking it off the list.

Am I living in a fantasy world if I imagine that switching my stud for a ring would help me break this habit? The stud has that tempting little twist inside my nose, that’s what I touch. And twist. And tug on. But a ring, now that would just be smooth and featureless on the inside…

(That’s the first of the 12 steps, right?)

I never noticed before how often I touch my piercing… until I tried to stop doing it!

At least it was only a rapid series of quick touches (before I stopped myself) instead of an all-day orgy of touching.
