Has any one else dealt with hair pulling and/or skin picking?? I have really bad and quite damaging habits around both and I’m just wondering if anyone has any solutions or general advice?

@tulyp I don’t do that now but I used to chew, pull and twist my hair when I was younger! I always have my hair up at the moment, and unfortunately I pull my hair out straight from the scalp. Thank you for the reply tho! And I hope therapy helps and works well for you!! Best of luck :)

Chewing gum helps!

@ilovemybf No worries :)

@ilovemybf Yes, I was doing that in winter! It was really bad and painful 😓 hope that the other persons gum suggestion helps!

@anonymous700 I pick at my toes too, Ill try painting them and see if that works!! Thank you!!

@Anonymous Thank you!! I’ve seen fidget rings on tiktoks, I might have to take another look! I used to do the scratching the nail polish off too! I definitely think that one helped me. Thank you for the reply and tips! It’s comforting to know I’m not the only one, and lovely to hear you’ve had a positive end result

@Living anxiously No worries, I hope you get past this! Another thing that helped me was getting into nail art, my mum bought me a big set of nail polishes and proper nail kits for Christmas and through that I found a way to admire my nails rather than ruin them if that makes sense? Nail art isn't for everyone obviously though so if you don't enjoy doing it then the other tips will probably be more helpful
