Does anyone have any weird anxious habits? I’m feeling very overwhelmed and stressed at the moment and I honestly just scratch and itch all day and don’t realize I’m doing it. Both the back of my hands and forearms have been scratched that much they are sore. I’ve tried putting bandaids on my skin to stop but then I end up scratching the bandaids. The only thing that’s been kind of helpful is if I wear a hair band on my wrist and flick that. I just wish I could realize when I start so that I can stop myself.

I got a split from the dentist for night time too, but 99% of the time I find it in my bed in the morning LOL
My biggest jaw clenching issue is during the day, the alarm alerts really helped me.

Mine ends up in my bed too haha.
that’s a really good idea though about an alarm. Maybe I should give it a go. It might help me stop scratching too. It’s out of control at the moment. I’m destroying my arms 😞
