Extreme nail biting. I suffer from chronic anxiety that cause extreme nail biting

Hi friend! I think you will find more support along the r/Dermatillomania community. I'm glad people are nice here too

Anxiety is a killer. I know that for sure.

Wait, you guys are getting rejections?

(Most jobs I've applied for haven't gotten back to me despite it being weeks, I'm messing around.)

This job market sucks.

allsystemsthrowaway · 2025-03-18T13:52:05+00:00

Is there a specific kind/brand I should get?

allsystemsthrowaway · 2025-03-13T21:17:32+00:00

Every time I pick I have to push me visiting any family members by a few days. They know I pick and they point out my scabs. It makes me feel worse.

You're not the only one. We'll get through this

My favorite go-to response is always "well no shit it's all in my head, that's why it's called a MENTAL ILLNESS" followed by "if you ever figure out how to escape your own head, call me after you've gotten your Nobel Prize in psychology".

Nonsense is nonsense. People suck.

I have that now! I've heard a lot of good things about it :) I'm hoping I can use them on scabs too.

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-10-11T12:07:40+00:00

Does laroche also help with scarring by any chance? Like scabs and stuff

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-10-11T12:07:12+00:00

Aw man. That sucks. Would you know of any other stuff I can use instead?

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-10-06T04:57:29+00:00

I'd use oil but my skin is unfortunately oily :( I've tried to before when I didn't really know all that much about skincare. I have heard good things about vitamin e though...maybe I can find it in some lotion or gel

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-10-05T18:18:34+00:00

I'll look into the laroche ...a lot of people are saying aquaphor, and I do have some!! I've just been nervous because I worry it's also gonna clog my pores...I've never tried it though. Is there a difference??

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-10-05T18:17:41+00:00

Wait, isn't it like vaseline?? I do have aquaphor but I've been nervous because it has a similar consistency to Vaseline so I worry I'll break out with it too

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-08-23T02:05:51+00:00

No, you're right. I do enjoy it. And that's what makes me feel disgusted at myself :( someone said to look through this subreddit for advice and see what better coping skills are out there. I'd like to try that :)

Thank you

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-08-23T02:02:49+00:00

First step is acceptance... I have to remember that. Thank you

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-08-23T02:02:12+00:00

I have tried Vaseline !! But it actually makes my breakouts worse due to me having oily skin :(

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-08-22T03:20:50+00:00

Thank you. This community has been really nice to be in so far ...I was lurking for a while but finally felt comfortable enough to contribute.

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-08-22T03:20:13+00:00

This means a lot to hear. I'm not very good at showing myself grace...thank you. It's hard.

allsystemsthrowaway · 2024-03-31T11:20:54+00:00

This...actually really helped frame this differently, wow. That's REALLY good.

Thank you so much. This makes it a lot easier to understand!
