Marbles...

[Stef (Incubabe)]

Ha! HAHA! Estoy en la gloria. Ok ok..

I got drastic...well...most drastic than I was before...

I have this jar in my room that I drop a marble into for every day that I go without picking. Well...I was doing that for about a week and had no marbles...then I got this bright idea...

Since I needed something to do with my hands during those moments where its just me and my picking...I decided to carry one marble with me in my pocket everywhere I go. They are really pretty and I love rolling marbles around my desk at school and tossing them around so I was like, "ok, i'll try this."

Well, yesterday was my first day carrying a marble with me and guess what...I got my first marble in the jar!! A whole day with no picking!!! Im soo thrilled. I found something thats working! And so far, its working today! ;D

Great job Incubabe and a great idea!

Whatever it takes, hopefully have found something that is going to work for you.

[Stef (Incubabe)]

Okay...so I still only have one marble...I picked a little (very little) last night but tonight, I get a marble! Oh yea...I will.

Incubabe,

I absolutely LOVE that idea.

I think I'd do it with quarters, though.

Well Ive been so freakin sick since Wednesday. Ugh. Im thinkin the flu. This is the first day Ive felt decent enough to crawl downstairs to the computer. Good news is I havent picked in 3 days...I also havent eaten in 3 days...ah well. I get to add 3 more marbles to my jar though. ;D

This sounds like a REALLY great idea!

But I may have to modify it for myself because I don't have any marbles or any jars.... hmmm....

I'll think of something!

And I've decided to start my ZT on Christmas Day! Gives me a week to consider ways to stop myself from picking, find what works best for me. I also have a goal to reach - I need to stop picking so I look nice in my new bikini mum bought me for Christmas!
And if I can stop picking, I will have beautiful clear (maybe a bit scarred) skin for when I go to Queensland to visit my Auntie. She lives on the Gold Coast, and is going to take me to Sea World and Dreamworld and Movie World! WOW! Sorta like the Australian Disneyland!

Wish me luck!
Laura.

[glow=black,2,300]Incubabe, this is an awesome idea... both the marbles in the jar AND the marbles in the hand... I'm a crystal girl myself, so I will try keeping crystals in my hands all day as much as I can, and I'll also do something similar to the "marbles in the jar" idea... maybe pennies in a jar. I always have tons of pennies, this will be a good use for them. Thanks for the idea![/glow]

[glow=purple,2,300]i had another idea today... what about putting stars or stickers on a calendar for every day that we don't pick? i like the "texture" of putting marbles in a jar, if you know what i mean... it's a tangible thing, a ritual, almost. but little stickers or just drawn-in stars in your datebook aren't all bad either! just thought i'd share my little idea...
