I can't stop touching my scalp .... I know that sounds wierd but I constantly sit and rub my fingers through my hair touching my scalp . My Mom freaked and thought I had lice or something because it looks like i'm scratching . This has been going on for about 2months and it is getting so bad that I lay in bed and do it and can't fall asleep . I've developed little sores from scratches that I then pick and pick at . As I type this I have the urge to do it and have to clench my jaws together which kind of helps . I don't know what to do  ... How do I stop myself ?  I can't just not do it . I've tried . I can't control it . I do it inadvertently . lol...you say that like its a terrible thing. Gosh, I cant quit touching myself! At least its not a big deal if someone in public can see you touching your scalp! |

Thanks everyone ..... things were not so bad today . I wasn't able to sleep until almost 7am . I slept most of the day and tried to keep my hands busy .
The holidays are always stressful and depressing and I think it is part of my problem . My extreme boredom is also playing a big factor . I can blame noone but myself for that . I have no motivation lately . I am going to try the rubber band thing if the head & shoulder thing doesn't work . I really don't think the problem is dry scalp but then who knows its worth a try . |

Maybe it's a compulsive disorder. If you can't stop on your own and it's really messing with your head (no pun intended) maybe a short course of medication may do the trick. Maybe it's just a habit you can break on your own.
