Rubberbands! I know, crazy

[novabee]

Well, my mother got very upset with me the other day for OCD like picking and gave me a red rubberband to wear around my wrist to remind myself not to pick and of my goals to stop.....

Now when I find myself wanting to pick, I just pinch myself w/ the rubberband (which hurts alot) and it makes me want to stop because I don't want to hurt myself or my face anymore!

Of course, I'm not the kind of person who picks their skin because they want to inflict pain (like cutters) I just do it unintentionally and because I find it pleasurable....I have no desire to die or cause myself harm, I just do it without realizing!

So, let's all wear red rubberbands around our wrists as a daily reminder to stop harming ourselves. I've been doing this for two days, and so far it's worked.

Let me know if you try it.
