I have been eating my nails to the point of making them hurt and have been squeezing out ingrowns on my legs to the point of making them infected. I just noticed it today as a problem. Weird but I have been doing it for about 6 months (the leg thing), but now I have scars all over, so it is starting to worry me...

Why am I doing it? I don't know.... At first it was only to remove ingrowns, but now for some weird reason it has become some strange fascination with I don't know what. Feel embarrassed about it- don't think I could ever tell my therapist. Anyone experience the same? How do you stop it?
