i chew my lips... chew my fingers a lot less (just ocassional nibbles now yay!), pull hair and scratch, ruminate, obsess.... relaxing calms some things ...but exacerbates other actions
i dont know anymore how to calm it all down... just stopping doing it asap, having a drink of water, putting my back teeth together, opening my mouth and mouth breathing...

thanks for the idea of gloves....
ive tried things like that but the comulsion seems to override my willpower and i take the gloves off, remove obstacles... to hairpull or scratch

try try and try again is my motto
