First Minute I "Understanding Excoriation: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options"

🔎 Causes: Often linked to anxiety, stress, or OCD.
⚠️ Symptoms: Repetitive picking at the skin, often leading to scarring, infections, or emotional distress.
💡 Treatment Options: Therapy, medication, stress-reduction techniques, and support groups can all make a huge difference.

Breaking the stigma starts with awareness + education 💙. If you or someone you know struggles with excoriation, remember—you’re not alone and help is available.
