Question: Is it OCD!? Another self diagnosis!.!.!.!.!?
My skin has always had imperfections no matter how clean i keep it or how much i steer clear of soda and chocolate!. However, i make it worse by obsessively picking at it!. I have also had this problem for years!. i will do it when i am bored, anxious, etc!. it leaves my blemished faced looking even more ridiculous, making the pimples into sores!. i tell myself to stop but most times i can not, its like i'm not satisfied until ive made my face a mess!. i am wondering is this a real problem or condition or should i just learn some self control!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
