Dermatillomanie

Hey it's me Doreen! I am very successful in what I am doing but I have never expected that. So let's Start in 1990 when I started skin picking on my fingers (and I am still doing this ...whilst I am 30 years now). So I don't know the starting point exactly but I suppose I could have to do something with that I am a "divorce" -child and I do have a brother who is older than me. So my mom had to work hard to get along with us and consequently we were alone at home quite often. Unfortunately my brother has been very aggressive and so I had unless 10 years full of aggression and both psychological and physiological attacks. For that reason I probably missed to learn to love myself. That's my interpretation- for getting to know if I am right I will do a hypnotic therapy soon (really exciting isn't it?). I my youth I had a little problem with alcohol and injure myself but somehow I stopped it in time. I did my A-level, a vocational training, a bachelors and masters degree and at the moment I am working on my dissertation! So hang in there!! You can manage everything!! Just for yourself- not for someone else!:)
