im posting this out of curiosity, as it struck me as an odd thing to do a few moments ago

i find myself pulling out hairs from my goatee, quite constantly... im either tugging or pulling, is this OCD?

or is this a natural benign occurrence ?

hair pulling has a name all of its own if it is compulsive.....trichotillomania....look it up in the dsm5 and see if it fits what you are doing with your goatee. it may be just a nervous habit.
