If you count SI as an addiction, then yes, I've talked to my Ts about it. We talked about the history, how it started, why I did it, etc. They taught me coping skills and things to do instead. And then we talked about my stressors and how to expand my window of tolerance. It helped. I was able to reduce. Medication, in the end, is what got me to stop.

I also suffer from picking. Ex-T suggested that I wear gloves and put band-aids on all my sores to try and stop me from doing it. She jokingly said I should tape oven mitts on my hands.

I have other addictions too (eating, smoking), but I haven't really addressed those yet in therapy. I've quit smoking before. I've tried all the medications (except the one that can cause suicidal thoughts), but they don't help. Only way I can do it is cold turkey.
