i have OCD and well i've always been too scared to ask how to cope with the destruction it makes since i usually space out during check ups anyway, my compulsion is biting my fingers. it's a recently um developed one and well i didn't really notice it until started tasting blood one day and well you can imagine. the boxes of bandages i use! filling up my whole bedroom anyway i have a question can anyone suggest some things to cope with the constant biting? makes my jaws hurt and my fingers are ruined. i need to find a way to hide this somehow since people tend to go away when they see my hands gets lonely sometimes. anyway, thank you! |

um gloves?
why cant you just put something over your nails? and refuse to let yourself take it off and bit that instead? " One day at a time, this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering. "
i wonder when i'll finally jsut start accepting myself, when i'll stop saying i wish i could be like that person. i have facebook, and myspace. and you can ask for it. :P |
