I do this when I am stressed and it is related to my dysmorphic problem. I can make a small bump on my face a bleeding sore and not notice it until I look in the mirror at night to brush my teeth. I have had a small bump on the side of my nose that, when going through periods of stress, I will make bleed. Right now, I have three areas on the left side of my face that I have picked and are at different stages of healing. I’ve had this problem since about 6th grade, which is about when my anorexia started. When the stress gets really bad, the picking stops and then only denying myself food makes me feel better. I haven’t been that bad in over a year, now. When I was going through my divorce, I got down to just below 50kg. It is something I have to be aware of and fight every day.
