Big. Time.

I don't really care how scarred up I get, as long as it doesn't cause permenant or serious nerve damage i'm okay with it.  I tear the shit out of my cuticles, I have torn OFF my two big toe nails.  I pick ANYTHING which could be construed as a blackhead or a zit(even small lumps on my scalp).  I tear the dry skin off my lips.  I pick earwax out of my ears.  The works.

You have a remarkable ability to make me feel queazy.

Theres a woman on another aspie site who has to  sometimes useto a wheelchair because of the damage she does to her legs in this way.
:jawdrop: Good grief.

I do wonder why I haven't scarred on my fingers from all the damage I've done over the years.

Yuck, people!

I was picking a inflated mole down on my grown, but I don't do it that much.  I just bleeds and I get sick looking at blood. I have pretty much stopped that habit.  My dad has a big one on his back, but not as big as my dad's.

You have two dads?  Are they both your uncle, too?

I think that's just another of Flo's typos.  ;) I don't think he's from West Virginia or some other place where things like that are more common.  :laugh:

I am trying to change my attitude towards this mole. I am trying to think about it being a clump of dark pigment that affords greater protection from the sun. I think my skin is too light, and it did get me into trouble one time.  If I pick it, it just bleeds and I don't know  it might just come back if I pick it off.

I wish I could change my attitude about my cuticles.  I'm putting an attempt to cut back on the chewing off until there's a little less uncertainty in my life.  (Not stress- there will always be stress- but less uncertainty, which is one of my worst forms of stress.)
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

i wish we all could change our attitudes towards moles.

the moles have been discriminated against for long enough.

can't people and moles live in harmony?

To an extent I don't like it either, but I deal with it.  Its a given that you will get better over time, unless you are so disfuctional that it does not.  Uncertainty can make things more intresting.

I have been too lazy, but i would be interested in elective surgery to remove all of my nails permenantly.
