She's absolutely a tyrant about it, but her guilt trips and constant nagging don't help at all. What do I dooooooooo????  |
Do you have a therapist whom you could work with regarding this? That would be a good place to start to help curb your compulsion.
For me, I know I have an issue, but I've learned how to do it so others aren't aware of it. Like picking late at night around bedtime when pretty much everyone else has settled in for the night and they won't see me till the next morning. That gives my face about 8 hours for the picking redness to disappear.
