Okay… slightly gross question, so apologies in advance
Does anyone else have a picking problem? Like… if there’s a scab on my body, it’s basically a personal challenge. My brain is like, “oh, we’re doing this.” but at the same time i dobit without even thinking about doing it.... I know that is a contradiction 🤔
I’ve been like this for as long as I can remember, so I finally looked it up and apparently it’s actually a thing called Dermatillomania (aka Excoriation Disorder). It falls under body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs), kind of in the OCD family.
Just curious if I’m alone in this or if this is one of those “why are we like this” club situations 🤔 🤣🥰
