𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘚𝘬𝘪𝘯 𝘗𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳? A skin picking disorder is a condition that causes a person to pick at their skin for various reasons.

In light of #BFRBAwarenessWeek, only one of these five conditions is considered to be a #BFRB; excoriation disorder (aka compulsive skin picking).

Each diagnosis is important to consider because they require different treatments to settle the pervasiveness of the condition at hand.

CAN I HAVE ANXIETY ALOPECIA DUE TO CORONAVIRUS?

While many people think of this as hair loss, it’s actually hair shedding. The medical name for this type of hair shedding is telogen effluvium. It happens when more hairs than normal enter the shedding (telogen) phase of the hair growth lifecycle at the same time. Fever or illness can force more hairs into the shedding phase.

I truly wish I had focused on being kind to myself rather than hurting and destroying myself❣️ For those of you who this resonates with, you are not alone 💖❤️💖 #harmreductionsaveslives #harmreductionworks #harm #harmful #hurting #hurtinginside #hurtful #hurtcore #selfcompassion #selfconfident #selfcontrol #selfdestruction #selfdestructive #selfdestructivebehavior #excoriationdisorder #trictotillomania #hurtingheart #restoringmysoul #restoringhope #restoringmyself #journeytohealth #journeytowellness #journeyoflife #foodfreedom #selfloveroutine #rachaelsroadtorecovery #energyshift #recoveryisreal #recoveryispossible #kindnessiscontagious https://www.instagram.com/p/CRvPxrTpFKx/?utm_medium=tumblr

Since I’m having a FU day I’m constantly trying to not think about all the bad stuff running around in my head. I’ve consumed comfort food in form of chilli instant ramen, ice cream & cola zero. Now I actually got up from the couch to at least make my outside feel pretty-ish again. Self tan ftw. ☀️ . Now it’s going to oxidase for a few hours and I’m sitting in a towel on the couch again.

Here are my last 4 days! Today I will admit that I picked a few spots. A lot fewer spots than I typically did and not as severely and intently as I used to do, but I still picked (and I'm pretty sure the redness on my face showed up in today's pics :-\). And you know what? That's ok! Progress is never a straight line, and relapses happen. I could choose to be super upset and see this step back as failure, or I can recognize that this relapse is part of my healing process and an opportunity for me to learn new ways to help myself. I choose to continue to celebrate the massive success I've had over the past 17 days rather than let this small setback discourage me to the point of ending my journey 🙌 #dermatillomania #dermatilomania #compulsiveskinpicking #skinpicking #excoriationdisorder #recovery #mentalhealth #PickingMe https://www.instagram.com/p/B8DN3iAJRju/?igshid=1m5jphbyq2277

This is terrifying for me. Letting people see my body. Letting people see my scars. My new mental health goal is to not just live in body, but to own it. My body has been through so much, more than most know and I should be proud of it. But I’m not. I have lived with dermatillomania my entire life. It has affected my entire body from my scalp to the soles of my feet. My skin constantly feels wrong, like it doesn’t fit, like it’s not mine. I pick and scratch at myself and the worst part is that most of the time I don’t even know I’m doing it. I’ve tried therapy, medications, analgesic creams, nothing works. So I’m shifting my focus. I’m going to try to teach myself to be comfortable in my body. I’m not entirely sure how I’m going to do that because between dermatillomania, EDNOS and some other stuff, I have a rather distorted view of myself. I can see the strength and beauty in everyone except myself and I’m hoping that if I can change that, I will finally be able to beat dermatillomania and that I will stop destroying myself by literally picking myself apart. What you see in this picture, is not that bad for me. I have been much, much worse but I don’t want to settle for ‘better than I was’, I want to finally beat this thing that has dominated so much of my life. That makes it so I want to hide away in baggy clothes. I want to stop putting holes in my tattoos. I want to not constantly be deal with infections and the pain that comes with them. I want to look at myself and not see something that needs fixing. There is no such thing as perfect and there is beauty in our imperfections, I know this and I believe this. I can tell everyone that they’re beautiful and that scars do not define them or make them ugly but I’ve never been able to apply to this myself. I wanted to be able to show the extent of dermatillomania but this is all I can bring myself to show. I’ve still got another 5 or 6 months or whatever before I get “intense CBT” but I don’t want to sit on a waiting list doing nothing. I want to try. This is me trying. #SJScorner #MentalHealth #OCD #ICD #BFRB #Dermatillomania #CompulsiveSkinPicking #ExcoriationDisorder https://www.instagram.com/p/B67BkxMl--O/?igshid=zn27hg0bwfvq

Tomorrow is the LAST day to submit your #SeeMeStand photo to be in this year's #BFRBWeek campaign! Check out this great submission by Millennial Task Force member Michael DeCoursey. We can't wait to see more of your photos! #Repost @mvdecoursey (@get_repost) ・・・ Ok y'all. I've been slackin, I've gotta step up my advocacy game. Here is my entry into the tlc BFRB #seemestand contest. To participate with your own see me stand photo go to www.bfrb.org/seemestand. I spent my summer in sunny (but cold) San Francisco, studying acting at The American Conservatory Theatre. I met so many wonderful people and had a magical time. I learned wonders about my craft. I was proud to represent tlc in SF this summer. When I was a child I chewed my nails uncontrollably until they bled, what's worse I carried such deep and intense shame about it that I hid it from my friends and family. I became so skilled at hiding it that I even hid my BFRB from myself. Looking back on my 26 years, at these photos from this summer.....I hardly know that boy. He's so different from who I've become. Thank you TLC for giving me the microphone for my experience that I so crave. If you suffer from a BFRB you can live every dream your heart desires like me. All you need is an iron will and an open heart. @tlcbfrb #tlc #bfrb #trichotillomania #dermatillomania #excoriationdisorder #advocate #sanfrancisco #pride

No photoshop here! (I just used so much aerosol makeup to hide the scars on my legs yesterday, that it looked like I murdered an Oompa Loompa in my mom’s bathroom. Shout out to all my recovering skin pickers out there!)

I've been biting my nails, cuticles and picking my scalp for over 20 years. I also pick off any scabs I may feel on my body (which take a longer time to heal). #skinpicking #scalppicking #dermatillomania #excoriationdisorder #trichotillomania #ocd #compulsiveskinpicking https://www.instagram.com/p/Bod_Gbane0r/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=eqslu9c6268p
