Dermatillomania can be hard to talk about. Let's draw about it.
This is a growing collection of art by individuals who have suffered with Skin Picking Disorder.
Acting as a visual portrayal of their journey, these drawings help other sufferers understand they're not alone.

“I have had trichotillomania & dermatillomania for a long time, and this self portrait expresses my experience dealing with the effects of these disorders. I like flowers & plants as imagery for my BFRBs - losing petals, shedding leaves, changing shape, but always growing.”

“BFRBs are a journey unto themselves, one that everyone walks at their own pace. You’re never broken; you can heal. Fight the stigma against BFRBs—educate yourself and others, love yourself and others!”

“I love seeing how many people participated in this, and how much support everyone is getting. It's so much more common that we think, and I like the idea that it will be easier for younger people to find information and sites like this to help them.” -
