stop touching my face

When I’m sleepy or driving or trying to read at night. I mindlessly touch my face, my neck, my arms and if there are any pimples I pick at them. I swear sometimes it looks like I have chicken pox. I can no longer wear sleeveless shirts and wouldn’t go out in public without make-up. The worst time is when I’m reading, however it’s my favorite thing to do. I have noticed that when I stop a few days when I’m in between books my skin clears up some. I’ve tried so many things and they haven’t worked. I know I can do this but how?

A week after I cleaned my diet up (again), my skin cleared up and I stopped unconsiously touching dry or rough patches or spots because they weren’t there to feel. I’m not adding any germs or dirt by pawing at my face, probably helping myself to avoid any colds or other viruses too!

My face broke out again. I always touch it when I’m really stressed out. Is there any way to beat that?

I honestly think this is the hardest of all my goals to achieve.

This is the hardest thing to do. I mean, your face is RIGHT there.

but for the most part, I am. I used to pick at my face without realizing it. Now, whenever I even scratch my face, I am thinking about it. I try not to lean on my hands at all. If I accidentally do, I can catch myself pretty quickly. I’m still having a little trouble just touching it in general, but I do think I’m making progress and my skin’s becoming clearer.

Just having this goal has made a big difference. I haven’t completely stopped touching my face, but I’ve stopped playing with it when I’m bored, which means I’ve almost completely stopped picking my pimples because I don’t even know they’re there anymore. I haven’t stopped scratching my face when it itches, but I’ve stopped leaning on my hand when I’m sitting or lying down.

im going to stop touching my face for good. this will make me a happier person. and after many failed attempts i am determinded. i dont want acne or redness or marks or scars. my face will heal and over time any marks and discoloration will go away.hopefully.

This could be the cause of my acne.

yay i havent touched my face today :)

If I will be able to do this until May 8, I shall consider this as done.
