I started this blog about 3 years ago after having already picked at my skin for 15 years. I'm still not over it, but I will be soon. Writing about picking has helped me, as has knowing I'm not the only person struggling with this. I will overcome picking, and so will you.

New Strategy
Well, I'm not too thrilled with how I've been doing over the last two weeks or so. I've had three pretty disappointing days in the last week. I think I've been too self-indulgent. So, new strategy: I'm going to try to reduce or at least maintain, but not go over, the previous day's daily count. Let's see how it goes. I've been feeling really tired even though I've been getting between 7-8 hours of sleep a night so it may be a struggle.

I think you're doing pretty well, don't feel discouraged. I checked your daily count, so I know there have been difficult days, but I also remember you spending some days of "zero" picking, which is a great result. I've never spent a whole single day without picking! I admire you!

Hi Ottilie, thanks for the encouragement! Sometimes I start off the day with zero but I update the count throughout the day, and I don't think I've had a zero day since I started! When you've been picking for so long it really is hard to stop. Take care, M
