I've got a big time skin-picking problem. My legs are covered in scars and I never show them to the world. I scratch and scratch and scratch them, till they're bloody. When scabs form, I pick those. I also pick at my cuticles, at the skin on my lips, and any acne that forms. Lately I've been breaking out on my back, chest, and face. My leg sores get infected all the time. It's totally disgusting and I hate that I do this to myself.
It's supposed to be either anxiety or pleasure-driven. For me it is anxiety-driven.. I pick and scratch when I am anxious. It calms me down.
