@aliiixl0ve I'm sure it will be worth it. I hope you've managed to find another outlet for your stress, It is hard tho, I know. I hope you've managed to improve and heal since you commented. Stay strong, TFW :o) x
I have this problem as well ( at one point I was in the bathroom for 9-12 hours a day for a few weeks.) and this idea of documenting yourself over 30 days is really cool. I think i'm going to photograph, and do the same.
If you can think of any good tips you've learned to help stop/heal better please let us know in your next blog. Tips are so helpful.
question: i found that i did damage wearing acrylic nails and was able to control it better once i cut my nails short. what about you?
@hstabbert thank you for your comment :o) I hope you're improving since you commented. I've been having good and bad times with my skin, a total rollercoaster. I can't remember what it was like with acylics now, but definitely less damage with short natural nails compared to long natural nails. I'm thinking of having acrylics again, so I hope they did help me! Stay strong hun. TFW :o) x
@Piggiesunshine well I'm kinda more ecclectic so don't like to label my beliefs but if I had to tick a box I'd say Wiccan or Pagan, so yeah lol I am :oD x
oh hun i have had a set back too. My skin cleared up completely and now i am just looking for suff to pick causing damage. It is so hard. I am starting high intensity cbt in 2 weeks. i will let you know how it goes. chin up! your skin does look loads better x
@TheSweetg83 hiya! Oh yes please I'd love to know how it goes!! Good good luck to you! I just watched my first video as I'd just picked and felt really bad. Was amazed at how much better my skin now is compared to then so I'm feeling a bit better knowing that despite the setback today I still look better and have improved :o) it is definitely hard tho. Hope it all goes well for you, TFW :o) x
omg gurl dont you feel pain? if not let me help you. I will cut your fingers off how bout that. I know you need to get those finger nails even longer, how on earth did you manage to get picking?
@ANGELAH7030 Lol, bizarrely no... I've been there with tears running out of my eyes if I'm picking close to my nose; and I used to pick my lips so much at secondary school they would bleed and I'd just dig in deeper :-s luckily I'm not so bad with my lips anymore!! Lol nooo you can't cut my fingers off lol!! How will I craft?!?! :-O It's sheer determination that comes over me when I'm in serious pick mode - this tiny spot IS going to go!! But is then replaced by a huge scabby mess :o( TFW :o) xx
@pinkgal360 LOL!! Thank you sweetheart!! :oD Doing well so far today and not picked AT ALL!! Woo hoo!!! :o) Maye coz we were busy crafting hehe :oD love you oodles xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm trying so hard to get my face to heal. I've had anxiety attack because I can't relieve my stress in any way. Ugh I hope it's worth it.
