I can't believe I just found this forum!

I've never met anyone with this same problem! I've been picking at my skin since I was about 10yrs old! Haven't worn a short sleeve shirt since then either! Everyone always asks me "Ewe whats wrong or what happened to your arms?" & I never know what to say! Now I know this rediculous problem has a name! I seriously have never met anyone with screwed up skin like me & always thought I was crazy for picking at my skin! So stoked that I found this place! Oh wait... my skin still sucks :P
