Hi leah...I used to SI by cutting, but I was able to quit doing that. And honestly, I did have to do the "mind over matter" for that. However, I still compulsively pick at scabs and bite my nails until they bleed and I haven't had any luck trying to stop with those. Even my anti-anxiety med doesn't help with it. I hope you can find something that helps...and if you do, let us know what it is! The nail biting for me started more recently...about 5 months ago. Until then, I had nice long nails for 20 years. Don't know why I started and don't know how to stop
