Me like no I don’t do anything
meanwhile sat here picking spots and scars and picking the skin off my lips ffs

pls the way i used to pick the skin off my lips before i started religiously putting on vaseline every like 30 min and not realize shit LMAO

Tw maybe?? But I do it until the point there’s blood and then I’m like oops lemme stop that now
i try lip oil balm everything I just can’t stop it

and it be hurting too omfggg I can't remember how I stopped, but i think in the end i just focused on other parts of my body which is NAWT the answer lol. but shit maybe wearing your favorite lipstick throughout the day so that u dont mess w ur lips could work 🤔

yep, got dermatillomania as well and it truly sucks
have had it for years by this point

and well i already have acne so like those things combined...nightmare
my face is where i pick the most n that's also where most of my acne is
so them both are hard 2 battle

and i usually eat what i've picked as well
tbh this is the hardest thing to admit abt it and i don't think i've ever fully admitted it anywhere because i already find the dermatillomania embarrassing enough

I completely understand the shame part as this is year is the first time I've ever been public about it tbh. I hear that from a lot of people in forums of people with derma and their shame that they feel, and it all felt so damn familiar to me. before I didn't recognize that I had anything I had so much embarrassment leaving the house without makeup, or with someone pointing out bleeding acne or recent scars. I feel like there should be some type of PSA on how to deal with people with ocd who have visible effects instead of looking at someone and "saying yuck u need 2 stop" lol

yeah, i think it's because it's isn't well known and people don't know that it's an actual struggle and that it has a name
tbh me neither, i discovered i had it through watching a documentary with barcroft tv or something? n like i was instantly "but that's me, that's what i do and that's how my skin looks"
i had always thought it was in my head and that i was just a bit abnormal ?
when the people comment on it, the picking usually get worse
that's why i haven't told any professionals abt it except one curator at psych and she then started to comment on it "i see u have picked again, that doesn't look 2 good" and after that i never spoke abt it again
caused me more damage tbH

no diagnosis and i'll never get one because it's whatever but dermatophagia lol! i bite off the skin around my fingernails and the insides of my cheeks (right now it's especially my cheeks because due to covid i'm learning to keep my fingers out of my mouth lmao)
been doing it as long as i can remember. it's better sometimes worse sometimes.

aw man I wish the person who also posted about biting around their fingers saw this b4 they deleted their comment!! it feels reassuring to know that someone else is going thru the same thing as u yk? but on those worse days get u a pair of gloves, they do wonders for when im buggin ls lol

Sorry for deleting, idk I'm just really insecure about it oof :/
