172.1yr3SorosFootSoldier in neurodiverse[CW Mention of self-harm] Anyone else with GAD pick at their fingers until they get wounded?I do and I hate myself for it. Often my thumbs are all bloody and fucked up looking because my anxiety is high. gah.
Sickos [they/them, it/its] - 2.1yrYes. It sucks. Sometimes I can get obsessive about manicures instead and it helps. 5
SorosFootSoldier [he/him, they/them] - 2.1yrGlad I'm not alone. Normally when I'm not stressed out I don't care about my fingers and won't pick at them. 4
LeylaLove [she/her, love/loves] - 2.0yrYeah, I also have hallucinations that make skin picking even worse. I one time ate a tendon out of my finger because I thought it was a parasite. Getting on zoloft has made the nailbiting completely dissapear. 2
