Hi, I'm new here. I have moderate acne and rosacea and just started treatment with Klaron and Finacea. My biggest problem though is myself. I can't keep my hands off my face. I'm always picking at pimples and blackheads, which I know only makes things worse. Anybody else struggle with this? If so, how do you stop yourself from picking? I'm about ready to superglue my hands together just to stop! smile.png Thanks!

put some sticky notes up on every mirror with do not pick signs!

take up knitting or something else to keep those hands busy....just make a pact to not pick for a week, and then once you've proven you can do that, go for more!

I carry around a paintbrush and rub my fingers on the bristles. I'm not sure why it helps, but it is kinda soothing and keeps my hands busy.
