Sorry you're having tactile hallucinations.
 How about a shower to temporarily relieve the symptoms? Maybe the hallucinations will get masked by the raindrops. I used to get feelings of ants crawling in my hair, so washing my hair made them go away temporarily. And combing it. |

Good.
 Do you like swimming? You could try that too. Or a bath. I mean, if we pretend that all the bugs were real, then they would technically drown. Then you know that there is no way you have bugs on you. You can also look in a mirror for "confirmation." For example, if you think you have ants crawling on you, look into a mirror to see that there are no bugs. Use one of those mirrors you hold in your hand. |

I am really fighting the urge to self harm for some reason. Its almost like I need it to feel grounded which isnt true. I am working on other ways to feel grounded but still...
