interesting web site

I found this website interesting... see what you think:
www.selfinjuriousskinpicking.com

To be totally honest, I read that site, and for some reason it didn't help me much. Yes, I read what I was doing to my poor skin, but I could have told myself that. I think the site just made me feel more psychotic for picking. Oh well. Perhaps it's just me.

I agree with you; I think just the fact that there is more coverage/info out there is a good thing though.

when I first read the site a few months back it actually helped me stay the most pick-free I had in a long time, but like everything else, the effect faded. But then again, it's my choice then, isn't it? I still keep in mind the fact that I'm not doing any good by picking and that my skin is the best at healing itself, so maybe I need to keep those things in the front of my mind, and make the right choices. Nothing is going to magically make me stop, I am going to have to stop it, and I'm not going to 'til I really want to.

In addition to the factual information on the site (I was glad to read about how my skin attempts to heal itself despite my best efforts to sabotage the process), I'd also like to direct any interested members of this message board to the board there:

Like you, we have healthy and supportive conversations and friendships.
