I am very proud of myself, 24 hours without picking. I have to say I don't know how long it has been since I have not had a picking session before bed or in the morning. I logged on to this site for the first time last night and that was enough to make me decide that I must stop this insane habit. Thank you to everyone here who has shared stories, tips and moments of frustration and digust. The fact that you know you are not alone make this so much easier. WHY is it so hard to stop. I found that the short nails really helps as well as a rainbow colored slinky while sitting in front of the TV. I had one scab that was infected on my thigh a few months back. I could see the infection running through my vien headed towards the "female area" You think that would have scared me off. I am repeating positive messages over and over in my mind. Anything that I have ever wanted to accomplish before, I have. This is no different. Good luck to all fellow pickers out there. It can be over come. USE THE FORCE bonkers. PS, If you have an infection, a great way to get rid of it is to soak it underneath a warm cloth for as long as you can. The heat draws out the infection.
