Dermatillomania/ skin picking

I have dermatillomania, which is a skin picking disorder and it can stem from ocd and adhd. I have adhd (diagnosed) and I constantly pick at my skin and acne and so I feel like it is ok to self diagnose that I have dermatillomania. I constantly rip off my cuticles and when my lips are dry I rip off anything I can. Sometimes it gets rly bad, to the point my lip bleeds nonstop. And if people ever wonder “why?”, I can’t help it. The moment I feel something, it is the most prominent thing going on in my mind. It’s all I think about from then on, and the longer I try not to pick at a scab, or acne or the lifted skin on my lip, the stronger the urge is. It’s overbearing, it feels like if you are a huge cat lover and there’s a baby kitten right in front of you, wanting you to pet it. And this baby kitten is a stray and it has never felt love or warmth. 

This is so true. I have scarring on my lips from how many times I've peeled the skin off. It hurts so much and bleeds, but it just feels so satisfying. If I don't it bugs me SO MUCH!

i never knew this was a disorder, i think i have it too
