I am constantly picking at my pimples and black heads! It's an obsession.... If I see one that needs popped, I can't help myself! Or if I see a big black head I just gotta squeeze it out. My mom says it makes it worse but I can't help it. I pick my face, back, and shoulders.

    It's called dermatillomania also OSP obsessive skin picking. Which is an OCS issue. I do it too. It's embarrassing annoying but if I don't my anxiety gets tge best of me. It's not a daily thong and I can avoid it if I keep myself busy for the most part. Also I don't use a regular mirror. I use the 10x magnifier mirror. And I can see EVERYTHING. which makes it worse. But I eventually get frustrated and stop. If I can not find that mirror I'm good to go. Sadly I'll hunt for it though.
