I didn't cut my hair in about two weeks
didn't
SH in one week. But still picked my skin in a more anxiety and stress behavior way.
I'm working in that still.
Thank you guys for everything. I've been keeping myself distracted and my hands busy as much as possible. I tried holding something frozen, it actually worked for a distraction
also pushing it off, saying I'll do it later, later, later till I lose the urge. It works because I'm a master at procrastinating
I used to make bracelets out of embroidery string, I might start doing that again
My dad has this mysterious looking ball of tough textured yarn. Not sure if it's hemp yarn or not lol. But I'm curious to make a bracelet out of it
I don't think cutting paper is a bad idea, and I think I could mostly be around scissors and even use them. (I did a craft project with scissors recently and was fine) As long as I tell myself I will only use the scissors for so and so...I have to define what I'm using it for and make boundaries. Then I won't use it for anything that I didn't mention if that makes any sense. I could still try ripping paper
It sounds like it would be more satisfying for some reason
thanks again. <3
