List of Pros and Cons of Picking

dermatillomanic:

Pros:

• It feels good
• It gives me control

Cons

• I destroy my skin
• I am left with horrible scars
• My self-esteem plummets
• I am constantly spending money on skin products and makeup
• I stop myself from enjoying things because of my condition
• I am consistently self-conscious and hard on myself for it
• It stops me from pursuing relationships with people
• My family suffers when they see my face
• It’s always on my mind 
• I don’t actually have the control I think I do when I do it because I am a slave to the behavior
• One minute of feeling good leaves a lifetime of scars that make me feel not so good
• I get into fights with people who don’t understand it and it’s pointless trying to explain it to them
• It stops me from actually leaving my house
• Depression

The list goes on, these are just what I could think of right now. I encourage you to make your own Pros and Cons list and put it up next to your mirror so when you get the urge to pick take a look at it and remind yourself why it just isn’t worth it. 

This so bad right now.
