I was thinking about trying witch hazel or calamine lotion because it’s numbing and maybe if I numb my skin when I start to pick or feel the stress it won’t feel as satisfying to pick at it. I pick at my face and back.

my issue is also trying to squeeze out things and looking for hairs that don't look right

@Anonymous It’s rough. You want to wait until acne has a white head and heals naturally. But the white head is the most difficult to resist picking

Maybe aloe vera could work as well.

Tips appreciated:)
Hi everyone. <3 was wondering if anyone with experience dealing with excoriation/skin-picking disorder has some tips or tricks that have particularly helped them. Came to NOCD this week for help - first timer that would really like to be able to wear a tank top again 😅🫠 I did join the BFRB support group but unfortunately will be on a night shift this week when it meets . Thank you in advance ❤️

Skin picking
I’m having some trouble believing that reducing skin picking is really achievable. It’s been part of my life for a long time. Is it really possible to get it under control?
