I've also tried different things to stop myself from picking:
Fake Nails
Snapping Rubbers Bands on my Wrists
Dimming the Lights in the Bathroom (so it's harder to see flaws in the mirror)
Putting Notes on Mirrors (Don't Pick!)
My Boyfriend (and sometimes my mom) yells at me....
Nothing seemed to work very well, and I always got incredibly frustrated with myself. =[ It was like I was letting myself down, and there was nothing I could do about it.
BUT, by writing lines in my notebook, I'm now up to 50.5 hours pick-free! You know the saying "one day at a time"? Well, for now I can only handle one hour at a time, and I'm ok with that. For now. But I'm optimistic that I can work my way up to days. I look and feel really good right now, and I'm excited to keep this up!
