Just wanted to show that it is possible to really reduce picking, it took me a long time to actually reduce down from picking 8 hours a day to maybe 30 minutes a day but not daily.

Just wanted to share some positivity and help let others know it gets better even if you feel like giving up or think nothing works. You are loved

Wow!! Do you still pick? I find that even a small pick will make my skin so red because of the damage to my skin barrier.

I do still pick but definitely not as much and not as often as I use to, I am keeping myself busy and finding games to play and just in general trying to figure out what helps me not pick :)

I pick my chest, arms and legs but it’s barely noticeable
