Id never heard of this until Mandagoesroaw just posted.
Is this a form of self harm???
Ive been picking my skin (arms, legs, breasts, face) for about 16 years and thought i was the only one that did it.I even pick at my husbands skin when he sits still long enough. Ive got tweezers in every room of the house and in my car for emergencys! Typing tis down makes me sound like a pyscho but i love it find it very theraputic. I have been known to stand in front of a mirror for hours picking and at times several times a day.

Picking can be very soothing and i have done it all my life. I honestly dontvknow if i could stop or would even want to.
You ae not a psycho.
