Hi! My name is Charlotte, and I have suffered from what could be called a habit disorder, for almost all my life: picking my skin off. 

It is gradually scarring my body and stepping out of the bath one night, I noticed how it made me feel about myself and it wasn't good. For this reason, I've decided to stop, and give stopping a better purpose, helping others in similar situations. I wanted my proceeds to go to a mental health charity, that helps with disorders and self harming: something that can literally destroy a person, and those around them.

Hopefully I'll be able to help others, and myself at the same time. Thank you for taking the time to look! I will try to post pictures over the month of the progress I hope I make. If I stop picking my skin can get healthier and hopefully clear itself up better. It doesn't need my dirty hands touching it all the time either, ew!

Anyway, any help or donation is greatly appreciated. Words of support, a share or a few pennies can help Mind make a difference, and me, save my skin.

If anyone else would like to partake in this no pick November please contact me, we could make it something bigger than it is.

I also chose a Mind close to home, because I believe it is important to help those close to you.
