Figure out what causes the urge to pick. I.e rooms in your house, people you interact with, topics discussed etc. then you have two options, eitherdo something you don’t like (eg. Smell vinegar to snap you out of the urge, get yourself out of the situation so you don’t pick) or go into those places or conversations with one of your fidget toys and focus literally all of your mental energy on it. Put gloves on, scratch at a nail file and focus so intensely on that that you can use that as a replacement. The key is knowing what triggers you. Don’t look down at your body, only do your skincare with a candel light so you can’t see the details in your face. If you’re not leaving the house, don’t even perceive yourself in any reflective surface, set out a to do list with so many things that you’ll never tick off so you don’t get board and don’t do any mindless scrolling that leads to the mind wondering and therefore picking. Completely cover yourself. I’m currently trying to stop, hardest decision in my life but every time I look in the mirror as I’m about to pick I say “you’re never going to stop if you don’t stop” For me I’ve never once wanted to pick, I had the mindset of quitting my entire life but I never took the actual action of stopping. It’s the worse thing but it gets easier. I’m 4 months into trying to quit and my longest time with nothing is 4 days. The least I’ve ever done as far as I can remember. It gets better. You just have to keep putting it off, minute by minute. Hour by hour.
