that strategy could work, I'd like to see how it goes for you. good luck.

day whatever   Well I was wrong my skin could get worse. Today it's looking about as it's ever been. Don't really know what to do right now.        

Here's what my skin looks like after that binge. Going to upload photos regularly to track improvements. Good news is this is the worst its been all year, so it can only get better from here.   &...

Day 12   Well since I last posted I completely fell of the rails. I'd been pretty consistent at not binge squeezing and only picking at a few spots occasionally. Then right after I made the commi...

Nice man.   Day 7   Trying to do at least 20 minutes of meditation a day to try stay more present so as to not pick skin. Today has been ok. Keep finding myself infront of the mirror and squ...

Cool man get on this shiz! The more people getting involved the better.   Day 4 - 6   Got lazy about updating this over the weekend.   Last couple days have been better I guess.   ...

Day 3 Ok got mysef some surgical gloves which I'm going to wear round the house all the time. Wearing thicker gloves is too inconvenient with not being able to type and text. These things are aweso...

Day 2   Just made a list of my picking today. Just jotted these down in my phone during the day:   - squeezed one pimple on my chin that was pus filled - not too much damage - in bathroom on...

@09alisa Not so good either but I'm back to try again.   Day 1     Okay I'm starting from day one again. Picking has been getting bad again and my skin is not in good shape.   Star...

Cool thanks for the advice. My problem with blackheads is I squeeze them which tends to create a bigger pore which then fills up with another bigger blackhead. It's a bad cycle.   Day 30   A...

Day 29 Started off the morning badly. Got pissed off about losing some documents. Picked at my dry skin and scabby pimples a bit. Also squeezed a few blackheads in areas that I hadn't touched in a ...

Day 27 - 28   I've kind of leveled off at a point where i haven't squeezed any blackheads (maybe 1 or 2) for the last while.   So he "unnecessary" squeezing is looking good. Gloves have help...

Heh, that doesn't sound too great.     Day 23 - 24   Mostly avoided doing anything. Have quite a few cystic pimples around my chin area which are the only real concern.   Day 24 I ...

last few days have been good. Been wearing gloves which has helped a lot. Today I squeezed one or 2 blackheads and squeezed at a pimple near my ear. This is the point where I need to be consistent wit...

Day 16 I've realized a part of me really doesn't want to quit doing this. Basically for the last couple of years its become a comfort thing that's enjoyable to me. When I commit, it's almost a hal...

Fallen off the wagon completely. Back to my old picking/squeezing habits over the last 4 days. I'm embarrassed and angry at myself. Feel like I can't control this at all. Okay well today is a mond...

Day 10! Back on track today! Only touched my face a bit and picked a small amount at 1 or 2 insignificant spots. Squeezing wise I stayed away from the mirror pretty much. I did squeeze once or t...

Day 7 - 9 Ok so I had a complete relapse over the last few days. I had my major assignment for the semester due and basically all areas of my life took a back seat including this. Along with the mas...

@ 09alisa Go for it! I'll follow your progress if you do. Day 5 & 6 Ok I'm definitely doing worse. Slowly picking more and more and on day 4 I squeezed a few pimples. Today (day 5) I've been...

@iskaestar - Thanks. Ideally what I'm aiming with this is to replace the habit entirely so I won't just stop for a while then fall back into it. Going to be tough Day 3 - Evening It's weird, if i ...

Day 3 - afternoon check-in My skin is already looking so much better today after only 2 days of not squeezing. Looked in the mirror and felt excited about having clear skin. In the AM I saw I had ...

Day 2 Ok, I'd say day 2 was another successful day. Wasn't perfect but mostly avoided doing any damage. I think any day I don't go on a picking binge is a good day. Started off really well and the...

Day 1 Awesome first day. Didn't squeeze in front of the mirror at all. That's the first time I haven't in months, Also stopped myself numerous times during the day from picking at my skin. Found t...

Here's the challenge: I WILL NOT pick, squeeze or touch my face for the next 30 days! Unlike some others on here I'm not going to be resetting back to Day 1 every time I mess up. I've had experience...

I honestly thought I was the only person with this problem too, until I found this forum. I feel like I have a chance at breaking the habit with posts like this. Thanks!
