And going to start a 365 day challenge pretty soon, just so I can keep going on here. :) I got a tumblr recently and that's where I've found quite a few challenges. I decided since I really owe a lot more to my blogger account...and because the splurge is really only a trickle nowadays...and there is really nothing exciting, new, or abnormal from what usually happens, that I would get into it here.
Plus, I just figured out (I have this problem FYI...) what my most destructive problem is called! Dermatillomania.
I sense that it's a fairly mild case...but my symptoms fall into 3 or 4 of the different categories I saw on a certain page. And this, this calling what I do symptoms and this giving it a scientific name, is not to lessen the amount of damage it causes or to lessen it's importance, but to prove it as a more substantial and real problem.
You may formerly have seen me write of it as the "peeling-feeling" because, yes, it's shaming and I don't want people to know. It makes me relieved that we are generally good at hiding it because I was kind of wondering if it was only in my head how well I was hiding it or if people really saw.
Yeah, I've tried to stop. No, I'm not trying to hurt myself. Yes, everything I've read thus far fits with me.
It's probably all part of my sensory integration.
It said that doctors don't know much about Dermatillomania because, as we are very good at hiding it, we don't tend to tell people about it. This has inspired me to let my counselor know if this....even as it's on my heels.
Yeah, I peel my skin. Yeah, I want to stop.
YEAH, I'm still the same Kitty, Kelsey, Ana, that you've always known, loved (or hated ^_^), and followed on this blog and others.
Yeah, I just found another title for myself. One under the label, Dermatillomania.
Let's fix this.
