Why do I keep picking my scars and scabs?

[Anonymous]

i just keep doing it and doing it.

[Guy13]

That sort of repetitive behavior suggests OCD diagnosis and busy hands being one of the release mechanisms. You should never smoke because it would be the repetitive cigarette holding rather than nicotine addiction

[Guy13]

Make sense ⁉️

[Asker]

you think i could have ocd?

[Guy13]

I think you may want to watch a YouTube from reputable psychologist PhD

[Sparkie460]

You do it because they are there and it gives you something to do. try keeping them covered

[Sparkie460]

The flex bandaid stay on for days on me. Thats even when I wash my hands 30 times a day. They are water and sweat resistant

[Sparkie460]

Thanks for the mho

could be a nervous tick, or habit. get yourself an egg of silly putty or a fidget something when your nerves kick in to distract you from doing that

[In_Trance]

There is a psychological precursor for this. It might seem a bit extreme to say you need therapy however with a bit of research you'll see why

[Summeroflove]

[Asker]

[Summeroflove]
