Im sorry you are going through this and this may sound really dumb but here goes - I used to scratch my arms without thinking when I was anxious or feeling overwhelmed I would only notice when they bled - I try to keep aware of what i am doing now - to be in the moment as much as possible - not always possible - and i keep my nails short - I cant scratch myself if my nails are short -
