I just wanted to remind everyone that you can make it through this. There will be times when you'll feel like you can't make it, but you just have to keep believing in yourself. You all can quit picking. I truly believe you can! Just don't run from it. Face the problem and work hard to put an end to it. Even during your darkest moments, remember that you always have two options. You can choose to hurt yourself more, or heal. and you will heal. I know how hard it is to believe that sometimes after you've just picked! but trust me, you will. I picked today, but I know that even when I hit rock bottom, the only way to go after that is UP! I hope all of you will remember this and keep believing in yourselves. I believe in you!

I think the hardest thing for me to do is not run away from my problem. I don't want to face the world if its been evident that I've been picking on myself, but I know that the running, and self deception only causes more pain. Thank you for your support.

This is my second reply on this great new upport board. I pull hairs on my face and pick obsessively. I am feeling very self-conscious of it at my new job. I see co-workers looking at my face and wondering. I load on the make up and check myself as often as I can during a shift. I am at my worst ever. Then the other day I see a man at work with a huge burn and scar across his face and I think how absolutely vain I am for thinking I have a problem. I know, comparing can make you crazy. Anyways, I am going to try hard to heal now. I am tired of living like this. Wish me luck. Thank you for your inspiration and support.
