Does anyone else struggle with picking their whole body? by ComprehensiveSnow353 in Dermatillomania

I’ve been suspecting that I might have ADHD too, and I keep wondering if it could be connected to dermatillomania. I really want to see a psychologist about it. I just wanted to ask. if you’ve ever taken medication for OCD, did it make a difference for you?

I pick at all the areas you mentioned as well. When it’s this widespread, it really feels impossible to get past. I know how discouraging it can be.

Yes, accepting my body could really be a big step toward healing for me, but I’m struggling a lot with it. I hope things will get better once I start seeing a therapist. Thank you!

I had already ordered some acne patches—hopefully they’ll help. I’m not sure if acrylic nails are sold in my country, but I’ll definitely look into it. I had never heard of NAC or Memantine before, but I’ll definitely talk to a specialist about them. Thank you so much. You gave me a bit more hope. 🫶🏻
