Bandaids/pimple patches over picky spots help as a physical deterrent and the rest for me is I just actively have to notice when I pick absentmindedly and force myself to stop. It isn’t easy but you can get there with enough habit building

easier said than done girl! I do it subconsciously when I’m stressed out. I don’t even realize when it happens that’s why it’s hard for me to stop
