I really feel like sometimes I am more mentally ill than others to the point of being embarrassed by how crazy I am behaving.

You know the dermotillomania is bad when you have a dream that you have a massive blister on your face and then you're sad to find out it wasn't real

Excoriation tw, ocd tw, dermatillomania tw, depression tw
I’ve been pretty kind to myself about my excoriation/dermatillomania. It’s not like I want to be doing it, I’m in consultation with my therapist, psychiatrist and my general practitioner about it, I’ve been taking cbt classes for it, bought fidget toys to distract myself with, and am taking a couple different medications to help manage my feelings that lead to it…
But the nurses’s distress at seeing the extent of it broke my heart. I know it’s bad. No, it’s not bug bites. No it’s not allergies. No, it’s not a virus or a drug reaction. It’s clear to see my self-inflicted wounds are only in places I can easily reach. But I do know how extensive it is.
I’ve just been trying to keep myself alive the last few years. I’m doing much better than I used to, but I know without a doubt that my route to healing is longer and more complex than I would have hoped.
I think I buried my shame, and now it’s time to address it.

Does it feel good? No.
Is it helping? No.
Is it causing lasting damage? Probably.
Will I regret it? Definitely.
In face of all my self awareness, am I able to stop? Definitely not.
