I started picking when I was about 12-13 yrs old. It continues to this day. My biggest picking spot is my scalp. I do this almost constantly every day, all day, until my head is so sore I can't touch it. Other places I turn to when my scalp is sore are my face and legs. I have scabs all over now and scars that will be there for life. I am stressed a lot but I don't think this is connected with my picking. I could be perfectly calm and feeling ok and still pick without even realizing it. When I catch myself, I'll stop for a few seconds and then it's like my hands have a mind of their own and I go right back to picking. These times are especially bad- I call them my "pick modes". I need help from anyone that does the same thing and advise on how to stop, or lessen it, or something. Thanks
