im like always picking at my skin. if my hands aren't occupied, they're usually touching my face or my arms or my scalp trying to find any little bump to scratch or pick at

Idk guys I love picking at scabs and callouses on my hands and feet. I just thought that was normal.
It is normal, though. Peeling skin off yourself is fine.

I do this and I do it so much I have scars from stuff I wouldn't stop picking at :(

i feel like taking a red hot razor and cutting it off.

This is why self diagnosis is self destructive.

i've been biting my inner cheek and lips for most of my life. it's done some damage. i also pick at my nails and bite around them relentlessly. and i'm no stranger to pulling hair out, especially inner eyebrow hairs and chin hairs, but sometimes head hair.
self diagnosis in this sense is self destructive only in that it validates the behavior, in a "oh, other people do this too" sort of way.

i bite my nails even my toenails but i know when to stop
i bite the inside of my lip but only when its dry
i bite the skin on my fingers because ????????

now i know who all the nasty people are
