My version of Self harm is skin picking. I do it completely subconsciously and only on my face and hands. Every dry spot, every small pimple gets pinched, prodded, torn open, till it bleeds.

I know I should stop, but I really can't Stopping for 24 hours is so much effort...I have to think about it 24/7 and it's just too much.

I got into a major picking rut earlier today...my entire face looks like I have severe acne. It hurts, looks terrible, is bleeding.

I need something to make cuts heal quicker.

Preferably something every person has at home.

I just washed my face and put a clay mask on to clean it out...now what?

Get some therapy for that, before it gets far too out of hand! Peroxide should help with your cuts.

Try to find something else to pick at like playdough, or something with a plasma texture. When you feel the urge to pick your skin, pick something else. Use a pok scar lotion, or a pore minimizing lotion. It'll try to heal the scars.

please try to stop.
