Does anyone else pick at their private areas?
Ever since I was little I've been prone to self harm. Cutting, burning, tearing out hair etc. But I also pick the skin/hairs of my private area...so much so that it looks like a awful shaving rash constantly.
Does anyone else do this? Or am I alone in being a little creepy?

Woah me too. It's sort of an on/off thing -- I'll do it several times a day for a week and then not at all for a week, but yeah. I'll do it when I get stressed out -- my boyfriend will say something that makes me feel angry/sad/like a piece of shit and I'll go into the bathroom and start picking/plucking. I think to myself that it's just to make myself look better for me/him, but it really makes it much worse. Can't stop picking at ingrown hairs/old scabs/anything abnormal on the skin. Blah.

Oh my god I do that too!!! Like if someone makes me feel crappy- or even the flipside if someone is complimenting me and stuff I get all guilty and go and pluck hair down there. Sometimes I think I do it so I wouldnt want to show myself to anyone or get intimate- I mean I pick at the ingrown hairs and such so it looks all red and weird and and probably to an ignorant eye that I've got some kind of obscure STD... I wish I'd stop, I always feel so horrible after I do it.

I used to do this, pick at the ingrown hairs and scabs. Not too much anymore though.

What do you do when you become too scared, too scared to live, too scared to die, too scared to love, too scared to even care?
All you must do is breathe and take it one moment at a time. We are strong and deserve to find true happiness <3

I don't pick, but I do compulsively pluck my pubic hair. I get sucked into it for hours but I haven't really suffered any negative effects from it other than time loss lol.
STOP Think before you write! I do my best to respect people, their age, their experience and their opinions.
I try not to be condescending, rude or cruel to make me feel smart or superior. I do not always succeed, but I do try. This is my polite request from me to you to do the same.

It's relieving to know that there's other people like that.

Plucking hair anywhere is almost a coping strategy for me, it distracts me and calms me while passing the time. When I was a teenager my legs were covered in scabs and scars from it, but now I 'manage' it better. I think it's part of my trich as I pull hair from my head too.
