I am 20 years old, and I have the same issue . I have picked for a few years, but over the past year it has gotten really worse. As i sit here writing this, I can't stop bringing my hand to face/neck/shoulder/back to feel for something to pick. I have to wear a lot of concealer and foundation before I leave the house. I feel so ugly when I'm at home around my family without my makeup on. I just cannot resist the urge. My skin is a mess, and it makes me upset. My mom just tells me I need to stop picking, but she doesn't understand that I just can't stop picking. I wish I could. I don't know what to do. I have tried putting Vitamin C oil on my shoulders and back because I've read it helps clear scars, but I can't stand the way oil feels.

I also pick/bite my fingernails and skin around my nails. I have done this even longer than I have been picking my skin. My skin picking habit has become way worse than the finger picking.

I'm feeling so hopeless and hideous
