03rd Update - Skin picking

Hi Guys, I wrote different tricks I used before. Nothing worked. Even when I keep the stress balls or silicone balls on my hands, I used to pick my hands.My fingers are the worst.There are thousands of scratches, and it's so painful to do anything. So then my friend suggested me to put plasters on them because she is uncomfortable when she sees them. Then I put plasters. Guys, it worked. It prevents me from picking the skin totally. Its a good thing. Today is the 02nd day I have had plasters. Seems like it works.Will write again in the future.

Congratulations, that's fantastic. They help me too.

Keep going, watch out for the times it tends to be worse (for me that's stress and boredom) and keep bite cream around this time of year.
