Hello, i am newly arrived here, after a little google searching. Your messages seem so supportive i thought i would try posting this most likely already exhausted topic..
i have ripped up my nails since i was 6, constantly have a 'lip problem' and will peel anything i can, often including others...(but not severly enough to warrrant any scarring, just a 'habit')
i have a high pain tolerance,
would consider myself impulsive, and would say that i 'zone out' when i engage in these behaviours.
i don't know what to call myself, am i impulsive/compulsive, am i episodic...
i am sorry but i have never really analyzed this as a truly abberant behaviour, i don't even know where to begin.
If anyone could share any information that might outline the scope and treatment of this behaviour, i would be really really gratefull.
