    Well, first of all, I'm so sorry this happened..is there any counseling you could get?
    If not, online there's 7 Cups of Tea, also on tumblr there's onlinecounseling, & spiritual inspiration. Also, I've gone to a group women's counseling @ a local hospital, they charged I believe but it was minimal
    That's got to be scary to deal w/that so close to home

    I used to listen to tapes, they give a positive subliminal message & help you relax..I have to remember what they were called

I've tried reaching out to forums and calling support lines, drinking hot tea and getting up at 5am around the time the lip tearing starts to apply ointment and put on soft mittens, which end up coming off at some point. Sorry for ranting btw and thank you for the book recommendation! ^^
    I have some ideas. I have a lot of experience in therapy matters. Please PM me. I just can't post it on an open forum.

I've been badly obsessing and tearing my lips that seem to get worse every month and everything I've used to conceal it simply rubs off in a matter of minutes. They are constantly stinging after the bleeding has stopped, terrible chapping leaving deep marks that turn white after healing like scar tissue. Being raped and molested as a child there was no way for me to communicate clearly about what happened to me with medical issues, I felt numb and when trying to think about certain flashes I'd go into "flight or fight" reaction. (there was this lingering filth feeling that constantly stuck around) A week later I started scrubbing and doing things others around me weren't doing that made me feel a lot worse at turning 5 years old. I've asked others about going to sessions where people discuss what happened and their battles of overcoming this, but I've found that its starting to effect my health many years later. Going after him is also not an option personally given that it was drug induced, would stir issues with their relatives, its been over 12 years and having to change my information. Here is where things become complicated..he still stays close there and if I don't pull myself out of this spiral I'll end up back near that place. My stomach felt like it was in double knots two years before during Christmas when he was sitting on a ride mower nearly shaking my bf's hand, which I didn't catch till I heard him greeting people. (freaked out and haled ass crying the way home) Ever since its been difficult camming and getting that old motivation back that I once had, now its been challenging bringing myself out of this sleeping depression that makes me feel defeated. Can anyone offer some guidance or relate?
    I had a similar experience to yours. I can relate. I have ongoing pain, anxiety and guilt. It is something that I deal with often. The memories are as vivid and real as when it first happened. I've been seeing therapist, psychiatrists for many years and had spent many weeks 2 different times at a mental health facility. Please feel free PM me.

    I am so sorry you're going through that. It's unfortunate that therapy can be so expensive without insurance coverage... have you looked into support groups in your area? Those are usually free or at the very least, much much less expensive.

    Do you have any hobbies that you can lose yourself in? I have serious anxiety problems, and I have to keep busy with things like art and exercise to quiet my brain. It's hard to motivate yourself sometimes if you already have an emotional crutch (the skin picking), but once you get in the habit of doing your hobby, it can become a regular daily activity, and it is SUCH a better, healthier outlet.
