Oh, god that Tavi quote has really made me think. I’m so badly stuck in a cycle of skin picking it’s insane. My face, chest, back, arms and legs all sting at where I’ve convinced myself there’s something to get at. My main issues are: what can be done about the pigmentation after? I am covered in dark brown splodges and am desperate to get rid of them. Any idea what things are best — eg treatments or medication or seeing a dermatologist? Also, it honestly does feel like my pores are very blocked always? That feels like part of the issue. That if I run my hand over my body there’s something to get out. It’s such a depressing situation and thanks so much for sharing. Your story was just so relatable ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing this, Rio! I do the same, and find so much strange comfort in a blackhead squeezing session. I recently wondered why my skin is always better when I'm on holiday, and it's usually because the lighting isn't good enough to pick or I don't have the time! <3
