How long have you done this? My mother does this. She also had (oh dear god, everyone knows I can't spell but I'll try) ticotricho---something or other, where she pulled out her hair and had to wear hats for quite some time while I was growing up...
But, my mother picks at her skin on her arms and it leaves rather large gaps so she has to wear long sleeves sometimes. Is it related to anxiety, you think?
Do you have a Pdoc or GP you could speak to about anxiety, if that's the source?
