Hey y’all, sooo although I’ve never been clinically diagnosed, I’m like 99% sure I struggle with some sort of Anxiety Disorder and have been struggling for a long long time.

One of the ways that I have learned to cope with my anxiety is by digging my nails into my skin - either my wrists/arms, or the back of my neck/upper back.

I don’t love doing this because it basically leaves my skin pretty raw for the next few days (esp if it’s really bad) but it’s one of the only things that really make me feel under control. That being said, I still want to stop doing it.

Does anyone else do this? If so, have you found another less harmful way to cope when Anxiety starts to creep in?

Thanks in advance!! Love to all.
