How can I stop picking at my skin and hair? Is there a kind of specialist that helps specifically with these issues? I’ll waste hours upon hours of my day and I want to stop but can’t seem to make myself stop. I hate it and it just makes my skin look awful and feel raw and it gets in the way of tasks that I need to do.

One suggestion to help stop picking at your skin and hair is to keep your hands busy with a fidget toy. Surrounding yourself with people who can call you out when they notice you picking may also be helpful. While there isn't a specific specialist mentioned for this issue, talking to a doctor or therapist about your concerns could provide guidance on potential treatments and strategies to reduce the behavior.
