Skin Picking

Woke to dried blood on my face. I didn’t realize until I saw myself in the bathroom mirror. Washing off the blood reopened the sore & it wouldn’t stop bleeding.

Skin picking is just a symptom. The real question is: what are the thoughts & emotions behind all these maladaptive coping mechanisms?

This is an issue yet again. I want to recommit to staying away from the bathroom mirror, for one. Stop touching my skin, for two. Practice self-care, for three.
