hi lovelies! for anyone who struggles with excorciation disorder aka chronic skin picking, I have a helpful hint for you. I personally have been struggling with it before bedtime, usually as I'm trying to fall asleep. I especially struggle with spots on my arms, legs, decolletage, and hips. I'm fortunate enough to work at a home health and hospice agency and have medical professionals available who have dealt with wound care. Since I have extremely sensitive skin, I have had a hard time finding bandages that don't break my skin out. I also hate that if I want to check on a wound, you have to remove the bandage.
might I introduce you to the greatest $16 USD I have e v e r spent.
TEGADERM
y'all. listen. This small transparent square is MAGICAL. Some of my spots have healed almost completely!!!! we are going to not count the relapse I had over the weekend It's waterproof, hypoallergenic, and allows you to monitor your spots. I got the smallest size I could and got a box of 100. I also have started taking a supplement at the request of my physician. It's called NAC or aetylcysteine and I'm taking 600mg twice a day. any way, for any of you folks who struggle with a body focused repetitive behavior, come chat if you need a distraction! I'm not on here as often so I apologize if my response is delayed. best of luck to you all π xxx
