OK, My friend has this habit of picking at her arms mostly and it results in a bunch of little scabs and scars. Most of the time, I dont think she even realizes when she does it. It does bother her that her arms look pretty gross sometimes but she doesnt know how to stop picking. She says she itches alot so she'll start scratching and then it just goes from there. She literally finds things to pick, weather it be a pimple, dry skin, in grown hair, whatever, she MUST pick it. She's done this for as long as she can remember but it seems like she's doing it more often. Could this be a result of stress in her life or maybe a form of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? and how does she go about stopping this habit? Any help you can can offer is appericated and I'll be sure to let her know any suggestions. She does want to stop this so she is really just looking for any answers ( nice ones please) from anyone who may do this same thing or from someone who knows anyone like this?. Thanks all.
