I just can’t seem to stop picking at my skin. I pick mostly my face and back but I’ll also pick my chest, legs and feet if I notice any kind of imperfection. I’ve tried so many things and it just hasn’t worked. I’ve tried several medications with no success, I’ve tried fidgets and therapy exercises and hydrocolloid patches and skincare products and it just isn’t working. I’m genuinely at a loss and I’m in tears most nights because of it. Going to school makes me insecure and terrified but I can’t wear makeup because it makes my acne worse. I feel like I’ve explored every option but I just can’t find something that works for me. My triggers are any noticing imperfections in my skin and mirrors and I try to avoid both but I still end up in hour long picking sessions. The worst part is I know I need to stop but I can’t physically drag myself away from the mirror but its like I don’t have the willpower and afterwards I just feel weak and useless for giving in to the urge. I’m so grateful for any help because I’m just so upset and sick of this habit.

I’m struggling to think of gift ideas for my daughter, she doesn’t want the same basic gifts every other girl her age has but she can’t think of anything she really wants either. She loves space, and plants and anything she can make or craft but she doesn’t want tacky things that she’ll never use or look at again. Ideally she wants nice things that are either useful, pretty or can be an ornament in her room but also play into her interests. I looked at getting her an astronomical orrery because she like that kind of stuff but they’re just so expensive. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I'm rebinding a book for the first time and I'm a total beginner. I love the look of heat transfer vinyl covers but I don't own a cricut and my country doesn't offer any vinyl cutting services near me. Does anyone have any ideas on alternative ways to decorate my covers (fabric book cloth). Ideally I still want it to look neat and professional and not like a "craft project".
