Ways to stop skin picking as someone who is very aware?
I've had Excoriation disorder for years and nothing really works for me. I've tried fidgets, pimple patches, gloves, bandages around my fingers, apps, cutting nails short...but nothing seems to work and I think it's because I'm too aware.
I'm aware I can fidget with one hand and pick with the other, or not use the fidget at all. I'm aware I can remove the pimple patches, gloves and bandages and pick. And cutting my nails short never prevented me from picking in any way.
I still don't have access to a psychiatrist and in the meanwhile I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on what I could try?
