constantly

i feel like i'm constantly picking at my skin,and then it always starts bleeding,i don't usually want to waste bandaids on this so i just let them or dab it with the shirt i'm wearing but lately it's been bleeding more and i don't know what to do,i can't stop picking but then i don't want to always keep a bandaid on it cuz i don't want to trap anything in my skin.

is there any way to fix this?

I feel you as someone who also has a lot of body focused repetitive behaviours, especially skin picking. I think sometimes the stress of trying to stop something outright makes us more likely to do it. Your picking seems to be giving you a lot of trouble, especially with the blood.

Have you tried fidget toys? I find they've helped me cut down on my picking but I still do pick sometimes.

I wish you all the best and always look after yourself and be careful for infections.
