Just forget about it and you won't pick it...

First, you have to address the issue of why you are getting so many scabs all the time. Second, you have to tell yourself that picking the scabs will cause to get scars and you don't want that. Next time you think about picking your scabs, think about a girl with beautiful skin and how picking your scabs is going to cause you to not be that girl. You can try to rub some cocoa butter to make the scars fade a little bit. On darker skin, the scars tend to heal dark, so it is really important that you leave the scabs as long as possible even leave them until they fall off. This way there will be less of a scar.

It might be reflective of something going on in your life...like is someone picking on you, or do you do that during times of stress?
Sometimes we react with stress habits when we dont have enough calcium magnesium believe it or not...your body will rob it from your bones if you dont have enough because you need a certain amount in your blood...
it gives you a sense of well being...
do you do it when you are tired???
Notice what happens just before you start the habit and you might have more insight into what is causing the stress and you can adress that

what you should do is the next time when you pick your scab.. before you go to bed while its still bleeding.. clean it with rubbing alcohol and put a dallop of neosporen over it. go to bed and the next day you wont get an ugly scab. it softens your open wound and it doesnt make an ugly scar..
