Do you pick when you are bored and relaxed, or when you are stressed and anxious?
I pick in private. My family knows I pick, but if they happen to walk by the bathroom while I'm picking, I stop because I am so ashamed.

Yes I pick in front of the mirror, but I also pick while sitting at the computer, or while I'm getting dressed. I usually pick my shoulders/chest/and neck while I'm on the computer. I pick my face while looking in the mirror. But sometimes I'll rub my hand on my face, and feel for a bump, and go to the mirror to pick at it. So I look and feel for places to pick. It seems like I feel for places to pick on my back the most. I will just constantly feel all over my back trying to find the slightest bump to pick.

I do pick when I'm bored, and when I'm stressed it really intensifies.
