[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whoa whoa whoa. You are TOTALLY misreading this situation. This is NOT a dermatological problem. This is a mental health issue, one that I’ve struggled with since I was 11/12 (I’m 40 now). It’s called dermatilllomania (sp?). For me, it was a manifestation of anxiety. If she says she wants clear skin and is STILL picking at it, that’s most likely what she’s dealing with, and punishment is absolutely the wrong approach. Get her to a psychologist who specialize in this, stat. It took me a decade as an adult to get this under control, and I ish my parents had figured it out/treated it when I was young. And if you’re thinking “she doesn’t seem anxious” - neither did I. [/quote] OP, all of the above. And frankly, you sound really intense. I’ll bet you’re part of the reason for whatever is causing the underlying anxiety. Perhaps, back off a bit. Especially school if you tend to nag about that. [/quote]
