i have not been diagnosed but i pick at my face, any imperfections usually, and definately pull my eyelashes out on occasion and if i find hair even below the surface of the skin but you can see it i pick at it until and even after it bleeds until i get the stinking hair.
my family try to get on me but that just makes me try to hide the "picking" i feel guilt and embarrassment for it. i use tweesers as well as my nails. i've found when i get anxious i pick more and since i've been on prozac and abilify my picking hasn't been NEARLY as bad. it's nice to know i'm not alone. i wish my family understood more, although i admit it does seem creepy and stupid when i think about it.
