Well I'm not going to tell you it's possible that you won't stop picking, but there's plenty of ways for you to prevent yourself from doing it as much.

Limit yourself from looking at yourself as minimal as possible. When you just wake up, look at your face for just a few seconds, not any longer, Doing your usual morning routine without looking at yourself too much.

When you feel like picking, tell yourself not to do it. It's harder than it sounds, I know. But, in the end you'll have less acne and you'll be happier!

There's more reasons, but I don't have them on the top of my head.

If you do end up picking, make sure to put ice on the picked acne to decrease-inflammatory and then disinfect with alcohol or peroxide. (I use peroxide because it doesn't sting but it works wonders)

Good luck!

Thank you!

I will definitely try to limit looking at my face and stay away from the mirror. It will be hard but I have to do it! Like you said, I know I will be happier. I just have to keep telling myself that.

I have been using polysporin on spots. I might try peroxide though. And ice is a good idea

Thanks again!

I've started avoiding mirrors as much as possible, not putting on the light in the bathroom (always the mirror I look in most) and if I get an urge to pick or pop I pick up my phone and play a game on there or my tablet, and I can see such an improvement especially on my chin where i picked most.

Good luck, you can do it!

I will try to find something to do that will replace picking my face and definitely try my hardest to avoid mirrors. Improvement is what I want!

Thank you! <3
